Understanding Digital Technologies and Young Children explores the
possibilities digital technology brings to enhance the learning and
developmental needs of young children. Globally, the role of
technology is an increasingly important part of everyday life. In
many early childhood education frameworks and curricula around the
world, there is an expectation that children are developing skills
to become effective communicators and are using digital technology
to investigate their ideas and represent their thinking. This means
that educators throughout the world are expected to actively
enhance children's learning in ways that provide learning
experiences with technology that are balanced and purposeful to
allow the transformation of traditional authentic learning
experiences. Digital technologies can be used to explore,
manipulate, discover, play and interact with real and imaginative
worlds to allow active meaning making. With a wide range of expert
contributors, this book provides a comprehensive examination of the
current research on technology and young children and the
importance of engagement for learning. This approach encourages the
reader to rethink the possibilities and potential of digital
technologies for learning in the early years, especially in the
years before formal schooling when children might be attending
early childhood settings. This will be a valuable reference for
anyone looking for an international perspective on digital
technology and young children, and is particularly aimed at current
and future teachers.
