Use screen awareness to nurture and safeguard child development from birth to age 8 in the digital age.
Early childhood professionals play a vital role in nurturing and safeguarding early development in the digital age. This book equips readers to grow their "screen awareness"—the knowledge and practices that uphold the developmental well-being and rights of children in a screen-based, media-centric society.
The authors introduce the Screen Aware Framework for Early Childhood (SAFEC), a versatile approach for making informed, intentional decisions about screen use, time, and content across diverse home, classroom, and child care settings. The book highlights consequential research findings and myths about young children and screens; builds awareness of the influence of screen-based media, including problematic industry practices; and digs into protective factors for reducing risks and identifying priorities for strengthening child and family resilience.
Full of practical information, strategies, tools, and resources for developing screen-aware practices, policies, and partnerships, Screen-Aware Early Childhood is essential guidance for all those who educate and care for young children.
Book Features:
- Offers a dynamic framework with actionable practices that enable adults to prioritize and protect children's developmental needs.
- Builds knowledge and skills so professionals and families can make informed decisions about screen use with confidence.
- Offers research-based cautions concerning the harmful effects of screen exposure on young children's health, development, and learning.
- Encourages responsive, non-judgmental communication among caregivers, teachers, colleagues, families, and community partners to foster understanding and shared responsibility and support.
- Includes practice-based scenarios, questions for reflection and discussion, and helpful tools and resources.
