In the last few days, the publishing house Graó published the book Infanci@ Digit@l. Los materiales educativos digitales en educación infantil (Coord. Manuel Area Moreira, Jesús Rodríguez Rodríguez, José Peirats Chacón, Ángel San Martín Alonso), which collects the main research results of the project Infanci@ Digit@l. Los materiales didácticos digitales en la educación infantil. Análisis y propuestas para su uso en la escuela y en el hogar. (Coord. J. Rodriguez, M. Area Moreira).
Several members of the Stellae research group participated in this project, along with researchers from the University of A Coruña, La Laguna, Valencia and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
This book aims to answer different questions that have guided the last four years of research: what kind of educational materials are offered digitally in our country for this school cycle? What pedagogical model is present in these resources? What vision do the teachers and the families of these children have about the educational effects of these digital resources? How are they used in the classroom and at home? Are there differences depending on the socio-economic and cultural level of the families? And based on age and gender? What recommendations or prescriptions can be made to the teachers, parents involved to use the set of resources and digital didactic materials in early childhood education with educational quality?
Also, in the ninth chapter of this book, case studies carried out in an educational center in Galicia are collected, analyzing the use of technologies and didactic materials in Early Childhood Education classrooms.
