LiFT workshop: ‘What questions about digital technology and young children should researchers ask next?

We are the Learning in Families through Technology (LiFT) team at Department of Education, University of Oxford, and we are currently conducting a project looking at ‘What questions about digital technology and young children should researchers ask next?’.

As part of this project, we are holding a workshop to review a shortlist of 25 questions on young children and digital technology use raised by family members, educators, and children through our surveys and to agree on a final top 10 research priorities list. Workshop participants will include family members and educators of children aged 2-11 years. The workshop will take place online, 2-4:30pm (with breaks) on 23 October (Friday).

Currently we are still looking for a few more educators to join the workshop. If you are an educator* working with children aged 2-11 years and are interested in taking part, please sign up using this short online form: https://oxfordeducation.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3q3QQT721p3UmEe
