Effects of Technologies and Digital Narratives in the Education and Development of Children and Adolescents

Dear Colleagues,

Through this call, researchers are invited to submit their papers related to the theme of this Special Issue.

Much has been written in recent times about the introduction of technology in different areas of daily life.

The growth and learning of children and adolescents in today's society are inevitably influenced by the technological revolution in which we are immersed. Digital technologies and narratives can influence the youngest in various ways. We want to focus precisely on the evidence, the challenges, and the controversies.

The purpose of this issue is to examine, through different approaches and types of studies, the results of recent research whose fundamental axis is the analysis of the psychoeducational effects and implications that technologies and digital narratives have in the early stages of development.

The editor of this Special Issue will particularly look for articles related to the variables that affect development and learning, the positive or harmful effects of the use of technologies in children and adolescents, the influence of digitization on minors, the impact of teaching mediated by technology, the analysis of digital teaching materials at school and/or home, overcoming the digital divide in different contexts and technologies for attention to diversity.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dr. Diana Marin Suelves
Guest Editor
