In this chapter we critique a range of literature related to digital technologies and their impact in the early years of schooling. First, we examine the impact of digital technologies on young children in general, including issues of access and the overall impact of digital technologies. We then turn our attention to a specific focus on tablets, the increasingly prevalent technology used by young children, to: analyse its impact on young children; discuss how pedagogically thoughtful app design can maximise the benefits of tablet use and then address the issue of screen time. In the second section of the chapter, we briefly examine computational thinking and how it can be supported by technology (tablets and robotics).
