    This page offers two lists of apps, "Apps for ASD ipod Touch Project" and "Special Needs Apps" - the first list is broken down into categories like communication, sensory, social skills - lists the apps, a brief description, & the price. It's focused on individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders, but of course could be useful to many. the second lists the apps & descriptions, but not the cost.

  • Robotic Pets & Preschoolers [pdf]  [top] This study examined preschool children’s reasoning about and behavioral interactions with one of the most advanced robotic pets currently on the retail market, Sony’s robotic dog AIBO. Eighty children, equally divided between two age groups, 34–50 months and 58–74 months, participated in individual sessions with two artifacts: AIBO and a stuffed dog. Evaluation and justification results showed similarities in children’s reasoning across artifacts. In contrast, children engaged more often in apprehensive behavior and attempts at reciprocity with AIBO, and more often mistreated the stuffed dog and endowed it with animation. Discussion focuses on how robotic pets, as representative of an emerging technological genre, may be (a) blurring foundational ontological categories, and (b) impacting children’s social and moral development.

      You can't fool a kid. They know The difference between a real dog and a fake one. Or do They? It makes sense that children pick this up at 24 months, when They start reprentational thought. I'd like to read The full study...

    Site for creating artwork and images ideally for children ages 3 to 12. Anyone can access and download the application for free from the website (tuxpaint.org). the application has special features to engage children, including sound effects when tools are selected and used, and a cartoon displayed in the corner to give help and hints. the drawing tools that are available for children to use are paint brush, rubber stamp, line tool, shape tool, text tool, special effects (magic) tools, eraser, and undo. Also, teachers and children can easily open, save, and print creations.This program could be used in an early childhood setting to help children work on fine motor skills by using the mouse on the computer. It can also foster creativity because the children are allowed to create whatever they want, however they want, and there is no limit on the amount of pictures that can be created. I would use this program in centers in the early childhood setting so that children could get equal opportunity and assistance, if needed.

    TotSpot integrates many aspects of technology together to create a Facebook-like network for parents and their child. the network is private and accessible to only account holders. Parents create an account then are able to add their children to the account on their own page. Pages can be shared through friend invite. the parents and children can upload pictures, videos, write journals, create developmental charts, and track milestones. Friends on the account can view items and make comments. With families living far apart and technology on the rise, families can keep track of their childrens' progress (even before birth!)

  • they enable users to articulate and make visible their social networks
  • While SNSs have implemented a wide variety of technical features, their backbone consists of visible profiles that display an articulated list of Friends1 who are also users of the system.
  • Structural variations around visibility and access are one of the primary ways that SNSs differentiate themselves from each other.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • SNSs vary greatly in their features and user base
  • the first recognizable social network site launched in 1997
  • Most took the form of profile-centric sites
  • Unlike previous SNSs, Facebook was designed to support distinct college networks only.
  • a shift in the organization of online communities
  • primarily organized around people, not interests
  • "Friends" on SNSs are not the same as "friends" in the everyday sense; instead, Friends provide context by offering users an imagined audience to guide behavioral norms.
  • there are passive members, inviters, and linkers "who fully participate in the social evolution of the network"
  • most SNSs primarily support pre-existing social relations.
  • she argues that SNSs are "networked publics" that support sociability, just as unmediated public spaces do.
  • Scholars are documenting the implications of SNS use with respect to schools, universities, and libraries.
