How Young Children's Play Is Shaped through Common iPad Applications: A Study of 2 and 4-5 Year-Olds
Robin Samuelsson; Sara Price; Carey Jewitt – Learning, Media and Technology, 2024
Digital devices such as iPads are prevalent in children's play from an early age. How this shapes young children's play is an area of considerable debate without any clear consensus on how different forms of play are brought into the iPad interaction. In this study, we examined 98 play activities of children in two preschool settings, featuring 2…
