Murcia, Karen; Pepper, Coral; Joubert, Mathilda; Cross, Emma; Wilson, Sinead – Issues in Educational Research, 2020
We present research that explored digital coding in an Australian early years learning centre and how it impacted on a focus group of 3 and 4-year-old children's creativity. The questions that guided the design experimental method were: (1) how do young children develop and demonstrate creativity when learning through play with digital coding…

Moore, Holly Carrell; Adair, Jennifer Keys – Journal of Early Childhood Teacher Education, 2015
In this article we share descriptive findings from two qualitative, grounded theory (Glaser, 1978, 1992, 1998) studies on how two distinct groups of learners--prekindergarteners and preservice teachers in early childhood education coursework--used touch-screen tablets in their playful, discovery-based learning processes. We found similarities…
