Early Learning in the Digital Age

Edited by:


March 2019 | 248 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd

Digital practices are forging ahead in leaps and bounds.

Examining digital practices in early childhood education, this book seeks to inform the discussion on how digital technologies are best integrated into play-based pedagogy, and demonstrates effective practices that enhance children’s learning and development. With a range of international contributors, perspectives, and case studies, the fusion of play and portable technology is explored through contemporary research.
