Empowering Young Children in the Digital Age
Digitalisation is transforming education as well as social and economic life, with implications for childhood. Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC), with its immense potential to shape children’s early development, learning and well-being, can play a major role in addressing the opportunities and risks that digitalisation brings to young children. Digitalisation also creates new ways of working that have the potential to lead to quality improvement in the ECEC sector. This report provides a 360-degree view of the challenges of digitalisation in ECEC and possible policy responses.
Case studies compendium
Seeking to investigate ways in which early childhood education and care (ECEC) can respond to digitalisation, the Starting Strong VII policy review built on a variety of inputs, including a collection of case studies. Countries and jurisdictions participating in the policy review were invited to submit case studies of recent or ongoing policy initiatives regarding digitalisation and ECEC in 2022. The case studies were to focus on how these policy initiatives are put into practice in a particular national or subnational context to shed light on the success factors and challenges of policy implementation.
