屏幕媒体在幼儿的游戏和学习环境中发挥着越来越大的作用。本文提出了目前的讨论不断变化的数字生活的儿童,在澳大利亚家庭(N = 406)的家庭媒体使用的新见解。父母报告了他们孩子的技术所有权,与传统和新媒体的接触,联合媒体参与,以及孩子的偏好和媒体使用量。2014年至2017年,通过媒体使用问卷从有8岁或以下孩子的家庭收集了横断面数据。在所有媒体活动中,儿童最常参与阅读(纸质或电子书)和看电视。儿童的触摸屏使用表明数字玩具盒有多种选择,指的是众多可用的应用程序及其作为游戏媒介的潜力。这些数据可以为研究人员、教育工作者和家庭参与专家的政策和实践提供信息,并在正式上学之前优化早期学习潜力。
Screen media occupy an increasing role in young children's play and learning environments. This paper advances the current discussion of the changing digital lives of children, with new insights of media use in the homes of Australian families (N = 406). Parents reported their child's technology ownership, engagement with traditional and new media, joint media engagement, as well as children's preferences and quantity of media use. From 2014 to 2017, cross-sectional data were collected via media use questionnaire from families with a child 8 years of age or younger. Of all the media activities, children most frequently participated in reading (paper-based or eBooks) and watching television. Children's touchscreen use indicated a variety of choices from the digital toy box, referring to the numerous apps available and their potential to serve as a medium for play. This data can inform policy and practice of researchers, educators and family engagement specialists and optimize early learning potential prior to formal schooling.
