Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the current international 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 With a wide range of expert contributors, this book will show examples of projects across the world that allow children to integrate technologies in their daily experiences as they engage in active meaning-making. The research projects also highlight the importance of providing diverse perspectives with technology and opportunities for children to produce new avenues for communication, problem solving and thinking. By presenting a comprehensive overview, current cultural practices in early childhood settings with young children can be transformed to reconceptualise early childhood education.
