This edited volume focuses on the lived experiences of children
during the first wave of the COVID-19 outbreak in the spring of
2020, their knowledge and emotional reactions, the adjustments they
made in their everyday lives, and the strengths and skills they
developed in response. A central theme of inquiry is the place
media held in all of these aspects: the roles they played for
children's informational, emotional, and social needs, how these
have changed under the pandemic circumstances, and the media
competencies children developed in utilizing and controlling the
media in their lives. The book is based on responses of 4,200
children ages 9-13 to an international survey administered in 42
countries as well as additional complementaries localized studies.
Comparative dimensions are central to this unique collection of
chapters, along geographical and cultural lines, as well as gender,
age, class, health, and refugee status. With 40 authors from around
the world, this book highlights the potential of media to assist
children and their families in times of crisis as well as their
potential drawbacks. Lessons learned for future crises are outlined
in the concluding chapter of this book, which will be an asset to
scholars of children's wellbeing as well as professionals of media
for children, educators, and parents.
