Digital technologies and early years education
The Digital Child comprises almost 200 researchers across six Australian universities, 14 international universities, and over 20 partners, including Early Childhood Australia, SciTech, and Goodstart Early Learning.
Our researchers conduct evidence-based transdisciplinary research related to children and digital technologies. In addition to hosting educators and their classes in our Children’s Technology Spaces, we provide research-informed guidance on digital learning, participation, and enjoyment.
