Description
Growing Up with Technology explores how technology is shaping the lives of three- and four-year-old children, and what this means for their learning and development. By observing children's experiences at home and analysing the perspectives of parents, practitioners, and children themselves, the authors provide a nuanced account of the role of technology in young children's lives.
The book considers key questions about which technologies young children encounter, how they learn from these encounters, and how parents and practitioners can support this learning. Drawing on evidence from research projects, it offers new ways of thinking about how to support children's learning with technology.
