A Pearson Foundation white paper argues that:
* "Opportunities to engage with digital media increasingly prevail through the use of mobile devices – and in developing countries access to mobile devices is more commonplace than access to other technologies
* "Developmental milestones are changing as young people's access to mobile and digital technology grows.
* "Digital media positively impacts children's opinion of learning, providing engagement opportunities not always seen with print materials."
As always, I question the emphasis on closed mobile platforms (which, while publishers dreams, are harmful to open discourse - see the post about Apple below). Via Garry Putland.
