At the annual Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) International Symposium, we released a research white paper today called “The Digital World of Young Children: Emergent Literacy,” which discusses the effects of digital media on young children’s learning. Authored by early childhood education experts, Arizona State University’s Jay Blanchard and Terry Moore, the white paper examines the latest research on how young children learn using increasingly personalized and mobile media, including cell phones, television, video games, smart devices, and computers. The report focuses on the impact of these new ways of learning and highlights the degree to which these emergent literacies are rooted in young people’s use of common-place mobile devices - especially in developing and least-developed nations.
