Teised raamatud teemal:
Addressing the question of how children acquire computer literacy, this study explores the strategies parents use to offer their children guidance and access to computers, the language categories and patterns used by parents to assist their children's interactions with computers, what parents consider to be the significance of computers in their children's lives, and what common goals parents have for their children's acquisition of knowledge. The study, approaching the issue from a social-interactionist perspective, emulates earlier literacy acquisition studies by examining how parents interacted with children using computers in the home environment and then exploring implications for school settings.

Arvustused

A Choice Outstanding Book of 2009

"The book is essential for anyone studying literacy or looking for suggestions on curricular inclusion of computer literacy. Quantitative and qualitative researchers will find this book valuable for the design and execution of the study. Robinsons text is incisive and most immediately complementary to scholarship in education, English, psychology, sociology and information science... Highly recommended."L.H. Taylor Jr., Choice (2009), Vol. 46, No. 11

"Emergent Computer Literacy is an admirably concise study with a number of important implications for future research on children and computer literacy in the "information age". The book will enlighten both researchers and parents alike and ask them to reconsider the development of their children and their assimilation into a technologically driven society. I recommend this book to researchers and also parents as an important starting point to consider the role of the new digital literacies affecting childrens education around the world."--Jeremy White, International Journal of Emerging Technologies and Society ( 2009), Vol. 7, No. 2
