Youssef Tazouti; Aude Thomas; Lara Hoareau; Annette Jarlégan; Blandine Hubert; Christophe Luxembourger – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Educational apps can help children develop their early numeracy skills, but only if they incorporate certain pedagogical features. AppLINOU is an early numeracy app that was co-designed by a multidisciplinary team to be compatible with the way numeracy is taught in France's preschools. This study of whether incorporating AppLINOU into classroom…
