Cornish\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInfants and toddlers--the so‐called \"touchscreen generation\"--are living in a screen mediasaturated\u003cbr\u003e world. They are the target market for ever‐growing numbers of apps, TV shows, \u003cbr\u003e electronic toys, and e‐books. Making sense of the complex issues associated with screen media in\u003cbr\u003e the lives of children under 3 can be challenging for the adults who care for them. There is a\u003cbr\u003e strong need among teachers (and parents) of infants and toddlers for guidance related to the\u003cbr\u003e appropriate role of screen media in early care and education.\u003cbr\u003e Unlike most other books about technology in early childhood, this book focuses specifically on infants and toddlers. It\u003cbr\u003e explores why and how infant and toddler teachers need to be techwise in order to understand the implications of screen\u003cbr\u003e media for children's learning and development. The book serves as a single, accessible resource to relevant research findings\u003cbr\u003e from the fields of pediatric medicine, child development, developmental psychology, social and behavioral sciences, and\u003cbr\u003e brain science. It provides infant\/toddler teachers with a comprehensive approach and strategies to guide their decisionmaking\u003cbr\u003e and promote practices that are evidence‐based, family‐centered, culturally responsive, and collaborative. It is a call\u003cbr\u003e for teachers to think carefully and act wisely when making decisions about screen media--both the technology that they are\u003cbr\u003e encountering now and the technology they will encounter in the future--in order to optimize the learning and healthy\u003cbr\u003e development of infants and toddlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 03, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42163533283463,"sku":"9781681236704","price":85.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/6a597e5b9a5524502e4e213f88df9dee.webp?v=1733298133","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/techwise-infant-and-toddler-teachers-making-sense-of-screen-media-for-children-under-3-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
