“…As knowledge regarding children's interaction with technology has increased, appropriate developmental supports such as Guided Interaction (Plowman and Stephen 2007); human interaction (Korbey, 2013); quality scaffolding techniques such as cognitive scaffolding, affective scaffolding, technical scaffolding (Neumann 2014); and continuity of education pre-K through grade 12 (Huo and Lu, 2014) have been identified. Additionally, intentionality of use has helped to inform the need for further research.…”

“…Plowman and Stephen have repeatedly identified the need for further research in this area (2007; 2011; 2013), and the American Academy of Pediatrics plans on issuing updated guidelines for parents and educators later this year (Kamenetz 2016). Few studies have focused on the use of touch-screen technology, such as the popular iPad by the target case of this study, pre-schoolaged toddlers, and few have focused their research in the United States (Huo and Lu, 2014;Neumann, 2014;Plowman and Stephen, 2007;Vorkapic et al, 2012).…”

Through the observation of their four-year-old son's use of an iPad 2, the researcher and his wife attempted to better understand the perceptions, use, and motivations of young children both as parents and researchers, through an intrinsic, ethnographic case study. The study of this individual case may help parents and educators make informed decisions about technology use and the culture of young children who are digital, touch-screen natives. This case study should further help fill a void in the research base among younger children's use of touch-screen technology in a transparent and natural environment, the home. In general, the technology was seen as a tool of entertainment and was highly engaging to a fault. Content selection showed limitations due to content filters and marketing in addition to the limited control of written language and verbal articulation by the primary participant. Further questions for research include the following: What are the affects of intentional scaffolding, guided interaction, and direct instruction among toddlers and touch-screen technology? How does providing access to technology to children with demographic differences affect issues of social equality? How do Internet content filters influence content selection for populations with limited language command versus those with proficient language command?
