Children and the digital

The world we live is increasingly defined by the presence of interconnected digital tools that drastically change our ways of inhabiting spaces, forms of communication, and the modes and possibilities with which both adults and children access knowledge.

Schools cannot remain extraneous to this reality, and must be offered as places where we can experiment with and explore these opportunities, and develop a capacity for using them actively and critically.

Teachers, atelieristas, and pedagogistas, will illustrate possible encounters between children and digital through sharing documentation (photos, videos, pen and paper notes, made by teachers and atelieristas) of experiences in Reggio Emilia’s infant-toddler centres and preschools.
