dc.description.abstractThe present study aims to explore the results of an educational practice that implemented ICT as a promoter of School Readiness (SR) in preschoolers from an economically disadvantaged area. It intends to: a) Document the effectiveness of the practice in terms of concrete and measurable SR outcomes; b) Characterize the possible drivers and barriers of implementing such practice in preschool, gathering the perceptions of children and their parents. The intervention took place in a public preschool in Lisbon surroundings, during 4 months (16 sessions of 60 minutes each). The final sample includes 22 preschoolers and 12 parents. The mixed methods research design included scales, systematic observation and interviews with both children and parents. Main results emphasize: the improvement of SR in children, with statistically significant results between pre and post intervention assessment; the perception of a high educational value attributed to the intervention by both children and parents; and the beliefs of parents about ICT, mainly grounded on risks, emerging from their notion of being less empowered than their children in using it. These results also highlight the discussion on how to empower parents with lower educational levels to raise children in a highly digital world.pt_PT
