Resumen
MONTEIRO, Ana Francisca y OSORIO, António José. New technologies, risks and opportunities from children's perspectives. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.1, pp.35-57. ISSN 0871-9187.
Assuming that children are active social agents who construct their own cultures, this research is focused on their perspective about the role that new technologies, particularly the Internet, have in their lives. Moreover, it aims to understand the opportunities, risks and safety challenges the use of digital technologies may represent, from the children's points of view. Based on an ethnographic approach, this article analyses children's lived experiences of using digital media, taking into account the specific sociocultural contexts in which these occur. Thus, it considers how technology and social practices co-construct each other. Its results portray the 'digital' cultures children are building and the reinterpretations of opportunity, risk and safety that emerge within.
