The volume is a substantive and strategic collection of international approaches to early childhood and technologies. The authors reflect on what works and what doesn¿t work in relation to specific innovative research methods.

This book explores innovative ways to motivate students using all forms of communication - books, magazines, blogs, movies, zines, the internet, television, music, comics, texting, newspapers, rap, video games, collector cards, and more.
