The Routledge Handbook of Digital Literacies in Early Childhood

The Routledge Handbook of Digital Literacies in Early Childhood

As fast-evolving technologies transform everyday communication and literacy practices many young children find themselves immersed in multiple digital media from birth. Such rapid technological change has consequences for the development of early literacy and the ways in which parents and educators are able to equip today’s young citizens for a digital future. This seminal Handbook fulfils an urgent need to consider how digital technologies are impacting the lives and learning of young children; and how childhood experiences of using digital resources can serve as the foundation for present and future development. Considering children aged 0–8 years chapters explore the diversity of young children’s literacy skills practices and expertise across digital tools technologies and media in varied contexts settings and countries. The Handbook explores six significant areas: Part I presents an overview of research into young children’s digital literacy practices touching on a range of theoretical methodological and ethical approaches. Part II considers young children’s reading writing and meaning-making when using digital media at home and in the wider community. Part III offers an overview of key challenges for early childhood education presented by digital literacy and discusses political positioning and curricula. Part IV focuses on the multimodal and multi-sensory textual landscape of contemporary literary practices and how children learn to read and write with and across media. Part V considers how digital technologies both influence and are influenced by children’s online and offline social relationships. Part VI draws together themes from across the Handbook to propose an agenda for future research into digital literacies in early childhood. A timely resource identifying and exploring pedagogies designed to bolster young children’s digital and multimodal literacy practices this key text will be of interest to early childhood educators researchers and policy-makers. | The Routledge Handbook of Digital Literacies in Early Childhood

The Routledge Handbook of US Foreign Policy in the Indo-Pacific

The Routledge Handbook of US Foreign Policy in the Indo-Pacific

This handbook provides a comprehensive survey of US foreign policy throughout the Indo-Pacific. Home to around 60 percent of the world’s population; most of the world’s largest and fastest-growing economies; around half of the world’s states with full nuclear capabilities; and a complicated web of unresolved tensions disputes and conflicts the Indo-Pacific is arguably the most diverse dynamic and contested region on Earth. US strategy there has evolved over centuries with its physical presence going broadly unchallenged since at least the middle of the last century. However the rapid development and expanding influence of China – alongside the growth of India Indonesia Vietnam the Philippines and others – as well as political and economic crises and disruptions within the United States itself mean that in recent times the US has come to occupy a newly uncertain position and perceive a range of highly unfamiliar challenges. To explore how the US has managed and continues to manage its regional history and how it approaches the modern-day landscape of an Indo-Pacific only recently normalised within international political discourse the book contains 33 newly commissioned chapters from leading experts in the field. It does so partly with help from the more traditional realms of International Relations theory as well as more critical realms. It also unpacks US policy and strategy as it pertains to regional governments states and multilateral institutions as well as to pressing issues including inter-state security human rights trade artificial intelligence and cyber strategy. It does so in four parts: History of the US in the Indo-Pacific Theorising US Policy and Presence in the Indo-Pacific The US and Indo-Pacific States and Institutions The US and Indo-Pacific Issues The book is designed to be of interest to students and scholars of the US in the Indo-/Asia Pacific; the international relations of the Indo-/Asia Pacific; and US foreign policy. | The Routledge Handbook of US Foreign Policy in the Indo-Pacific
