Popis: Children need to learn more about how they are learning in order to grow their own intrinsic desire for challenge and growth. As educators, parents, and caregivers, we need to be engaged in the learning process to notice, listen, nudge, and connect with children to support “minds-on” engagement. There are learning potentials present in new media-related technologies, but in order to access and leverage these, it is important to recognize that this will not happen through a technology interaction alone; human interaction remains critical to support children’s growth and development as learners.
