Christian Giang; Loredana Addimando; Luca Botturi; Lucio Negrini; Alessandro Giusti; Alberto Piatti – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2023
Technologies have become an essential part of the daily life of our children.

José Domingo Villarroel; Maria Merino; Alvaro Antón – Journal of Biological Education, 2023
Previous research indicates that young children, as young as preschoolers, spontaneously draw dihedral and cyclic symmetries in their representations of the natural world.

Sakr, Mona – International Journal of Education & the Arts, 2019
Facilitating collaborative creativity among children involves offering material resources that support collaborative and creative interactions. Popular views of tablets, such as the iPad, suggest that they are better suited to solitary game-playing or video-watching than to collaborative open-ended tasks. I explore this further through a social…

Sakr, Mona; Connelly, Vincent; Wild, Mary – International Journal of Art & Design Education, 2018
