“…However, these papers presented ways to 'acquire the knowledge and understanding to evaluate thoughts and make decisions', i.e., the cognitive-level autonomythrough supporting children to develop an ability to internalise the literacy and skill sets, and to make meaningful contributions. This conceptualisation was usually brought up and discussed in the context of supporting children's literacy development such as computational thinking skills [21,36,37,40,116], coding skills [25,39,107], as well as various forms of digital literacy including algorithmic literacy [73,95,103,153], data literacy [20,146], AI literacy [43,138] and etc.…”

“…The goal of these designs is typically around developing children's computational thinking and digital literacy. For instance, Ofer et al [107] explored the idea of a coding platform that controls a programmable hardware device for children's outdoor play, thus supporting children generate outdoor game ideas and implement them through coding activities. DataMove [21] is an interactive physical computing artefacts developed that enabled children to explore number systems and data through embodied movement and dance.…”

In recent years, growing research has been made on supporting children to become more autonomous in the digital environment around them. However, there has been little consensus regarding the conceptualisation of digital autonomy for children in the HCI community and how best they can be supported. Through a systematic review of autonomy-supportive designs within HCI research, this paper makes three contributions: a landscape overview of the existing conceptualisation of Digital Autonomy for children within HCI; a framework of 12 distinct design mechanisms for supporting children's digital autonomy, clustered into 5 categories by their common mechanisms; and an identification of 5 critical design considerations for future support of children's digital autonomy. Our findings provide a critical understanding of current support for children's digital autonomy in HCI. We highlight the importance of considering children's digital autonomy from multi-perspectives and suggest critical factors and gaps to be considered for future autonomy-supportive designs.

“…Experimenting with the system in this way helped the children to learn about what happens behind typical "black-box" machine learning algorithms. The "Node" was further repurposed as a tool for fostering outdoor play for children, that could be used in combination with a coding platform that controlled the device [31]. Children could either create new games or modify existing ones by writing code and experimenting with the system's physical hardware.…”
