【要旨】
Mobile media use by young people, including increasingly younger children, has been a surprise for some public policy makers, particularly educators. Rapidly trying to respond to the appearance of mobile media (phones, cameras, music players and web browsers), education policy makers have initially relied upon standardised and normalised views of childhood as a time of both innocence requiring protection, and immaturity requiring discipline. There are other views of childhood that need to be taken into account, and can be, when constructing education policy that takes into account new forms of ubiquitous communications and media use by young people.
