Abstract
Technology has catapulted young children into a society where numeracy practices are integral to their everyday lives and future success. In order to determine the scope and foci of the literature on early childhood digital-numeracies, this study examines the articles published between 2000 and 2005 in the ERIC database and proceedings of the annual conferences of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education [PME]. Overall, this study revealed (1) a lack of peer-reviewed articles that discuss, investigate, or examine early childhood digital-numeracies; (2) an absence of studies on the prior-to school years, and (3) an absence of research exploring the impact of new technologies on young children’s numeracy practices.
