'Uncle Google knows everything' – results and experiences of a research made among preschool-aged children about digital device and internet usage

Abstract

In this paper, I present a research what was made among preschool-aged children of their usage of digital devices and the internet. As a result of deeper understanding of the topic, it was specifically important to get information about children’s experiences and possible influences not only from their parents but from children themselves, hence in my research I made an attempt to do so. In my study I briefly describe the relevance of the topic in consideration of the literature then I introduce the methods of my research with special attention to the age group specialities. In addition, I would like to present examples of special tasks of data collection and possibilities of analysing the obtained data.
