Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project, will share findings from a new report on e-book lending at libraries. He will also discuss other research about the rise of e-books, their impact on people’s reading habits, and the way that library patrons are hoping to avail themselves of e-book borrowing. Finally, he will explore general reading trends and describe the next steps in the Project’s ongoing research about the evolving role of libraries.
Presented in February 2013 at the Kidscreen Summit in New York City, this presentation discusses the behavioral impact of preschoolers being introduced to various digital platforms.

Are you ready to engage one fourth of the world? Ricardo Leon
Consider that one fourth of the world are children. By children, I mean any person 12 or under. We are talking about 1.6 billion people worldwide or 83 million children in the United States accordingly to the US Census, International Data Base. This is the first generation using smart devices and apps as part of their everyday live. As any new technology, mobile apps are still a long way to go to provide children great benefits. Many companies like KnackMaster are experimenting and learning new ways to engage children. A great deal of research needs to be done to design and build experiences that are beneficial for education, entertainment, and everyday use. Feel free to contact me and be part of the conversation.
How might technology assist in equipping low-income parents with tools and information to help their children meet developmental milestones and read on grade level by the end of third grade?
In 2012, the Joan Ganz Cooney Center and the New America Foundation are partnering to produce a scan of new technologies that are available to educators, parents and young children that may have some bearing on early literacy achievement. One motivating force behind the project is the importance of the context in which technologies are used and the extent to which digital media may or may not prompt parents to engage in language-rich conversations with their children.
The project is proceeding on two tracks. We are scanning and analyzing products (apps, ebooks, games and websites) that companies are marketing as literacy-focused. And we are seeking out examples of models, interventions and programs that employ technology in reaching educators, parents and/or children, particularly those in disadvantaged circumstances. This slideshow presents some early findings from our scans of the marketplace and interviews with leaders in early literacy programs around the country. The second stage of our project, to come this fall, is a published analysis with expanded materials available online for wider national dissemination.

Discovering the Digital World Together, Safely and Critically eLearning Papers
Author: Maija Katkovska
Within the framework of the Safer Internet Program, Latvia organized a Safer Internet Day to bring parents, teachers and young people together to discover the digital world safely. According to current findings, safely means critically, because digital literacy skills are strongly linked to the ability to perform a critical evaluation of online content, which is automatically related to personal safety online.
One year ago, the Pew Research Center began studying how the role of public libraries, as well as the needs and expectations of their patrons and communities, are changing in the digital age. Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, grounded by a Library Advisory Group, and conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project, the first set of reports focus on the rise of e-reading and e-books at libraries. Among the findings: 12% of e-book readers have borrowed an e-book from a library; 58% of library card holders are unsure if their library offers e-books; and a majority of e-book borrowers were unable to borrow an e-book they were seeking at their library.
At the Library 2.012 worldwide virtual conference, Pew Internet Research Analyst Kathryn Zickuhr and ALA Program Director Larra Clark will discuss key findings from these reports—including a brand new analysis focused on younger Americans' reading preferences and library use habits. The session also will explore immediate practical implications for U.S. public libraries.
ES2 Kids - How Technology is changing childhood - AISA Security Conference 2018Andy Battle
A lot can change in 15 years ‑‑ especially when it comes to kids and technology. This presentation captures the biggest moments from the past 15 years that have changed childhood as we know it. The presentation takes a closer look at the radical way devices, social networks, and media have changed all our lives ‑‑ and how they'll continue to shape the future. Taking references from a 15-year research study by CommonSense Media, Andy provides local key trends, and some key recommendations on strategies to address the effects of Digital Technology in the home.
We surveyed parents of young children aged 0 to 14 in Canada and the United States and found some interesting patterns.
Parents are concerned about digital security and privacy for their children and increasingly so: Our survey revealed that nearly 70% of parents were either concerned or very concerned about digital security and privacy for their children. Furthermore, most parents’ outlook on digital security and privacy had worsened since the previous year.
Parents’ attitudes towards digital security and privacy do not align to their actual behaviors: While parents are clearly concerned about digital security and privacy, their behaviors do not directly reflect this concern. For example, about 42% of parents are posting photos of their children on social networks at least once a month, with over two thirds posting at least several times per year. Yet, over half of parents were unaware that Facebook, the biggest online social network, owns the digital rights to photos posted on their site.
There is a discrepancy between the way parents would like others to share photos of their child online and how others are actually sharing: A definitive majority of parents (59%) said that they agreed or strongly agreed that they would like more information about their children’s activities while at school or child care, implying that most programs are failing to engage parents effectively. Where information was being shared digitally by schools and child care centers, there was a clear disparity between parents’ desires for information to be shared through a private password protected site and actual sharing practices through public websites or blogs, as well as Facebook and other social networks.

5. Overview
Currently, 30 million children live in Russia. Although the
Smartphone/tablet penetration remains low (and is mostly concentrated in
2 capital cities), these digital devices rush into children’s life.
Russian parenting has it's own unique pattern formed by traditional views
on a parent-child relationships and by intergenerational family life.
The significant amount of early childhood time is ruled by grandparents
generation that is habitually the most reluctant to embrace technologies.
In contrast, the young parents are usually eager users of new media, so
the overall digital penetration in Russia is among the highest in the world
reaching 80% in major cities.
www.digitalparentingrussia.com 4
6. Overview
Because of Russia’s large geographical area, there is a huge regional gap
in access to consumer electronics and broadband speed. There is more
then 16 times difference in the broadband speed and rates difference
between Central and Far Eastern regions, being faster and cheaper in
Central*.
With a high projection for both GDP dynamics, e-commerce growth and 3G
coverage expansion, forecasts are advantageous. By 2014, the Internet
penetration is expected to reach 70%* of the population; the children’s
products market is expected to grow by 30%*.

7. Key Findings
Since inter-generational family life is
highly widespread, for preschoolers
much time is spent with both
grandmothers and mothers alike; this
has significantly influenced the media
usage. Older kids spend more time
with their fathers and consequently,

spoken word, Music, etc). E-books, mobile apps and online games are more
frequently used and popular among male parents who show real enthusiasm
about digital potential in connection to child’s development.
The digital gap between poor and wealthy parents is significant in terms of
both children’s access towards devices and attitudes towards technology.
Higher income families see more positive impact of digital media and
childhood development.
Educational apps and creativity based mobile applications have more
potential for shared time than gaming applications. Still, gaming applications
rate higher on the popularity scale.
Online Search has become the most popular shared activity for high school
aged children and their parents. The search for content and information via
the Internet has exceeded even watching of TV. 7
9. Devices
Almost 90% of children use cell
phones while 80% use desktop
computers on a regular basis.

and computers, all devices are less
widespread in small cities. The gap
between wealthy and poor families
is as significant as city size.
Specifically, children from more
wealthy families have more access
to gaming consoles.
Fathers are more likely to indicate
children’s technology usage. Men
seem more likely to provide children
www.digitalparentingrussia.com with access to these devices. 8
11. Parents View
Russian fathers show more enthusiasm for
digital media usage with children as
opposed to Russian mothers who prefer
traditional media (TV, books, spoken word,
Music, etc)

15. Shared Activity
Beginning in the middle school
period, traditional media such as TV,

their attitudes towards technology.
Higher income families tend to see more
positive impact of the digital media on

The Digital Parenting Russia I report was
prepared on the basis of the initiative survey
conducted by Anketki Research and its
partners in March, 2012.
The survey involved 3833 parents between 18
and 55 years old, with kids from 0 and older
in cities with more then 100,000 inhabitants.
This survey was performed online and
involved the members of predefined
online-panel.
Online panels are the communities of people
who agreed to participate in the regular
online surveys.
