Children's Forums: Exploring the Digital World through Children's Perspectives
(QUT Ethical approval number: 8372)
The project
This project is led by Distinguished Professor Susan Danby and is funded by the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the Digital Child.
The aim
The aim of the study is to understand how children understand digital technologies and how they envisage future research in the digital space. For this reason, we would love to have your participation.
Who can participate?
Children aged 3-8 years accompanied by their parents/ caregivers/guardians during their participation in this study.
What does participation involve?
Participation will involve visiting the Children's Technology Centre, located in Room E-430 (E Block) on QUT's Kelvin Grove campus (https://www.qut.edu.au/about/campuses-and-facilities/maps-and-getting-here#kgaccord). During the visit, children will be asked to engage in various short activities. The activities will include drawings with various materials, paper cards and digital cards that will prompt conversations about digital technologies, and an opportunity to explore AI with a researcher using Adobe Firefly generative AI.
As a token of appreciation for the children's contribution to the study, children will be offered a Lego box and a certificate of participation.
How to participate in a session: 27 Nov (3.30-5pm) or 16 Dec (10am-12pm or 1-3pm)
