Abstract

Abstract Parent–child engagement in constrained (e.g., learning alphabet letters or sounds) and unconstrained (e.g., storytelling, defining words) literacy activities are central components of the home literacy environment. Unconstrained activities are particularly important for children’s oral language and support school readiness. Yet, many parents do not recognize that unconstrained activities can promote learning. This study examines whether an immersive tool can help parents recognize the importance of unconstrained activities and how to embed learning into everyday home routines. N = 76 middle- to lower-income parents of three-year-old children were randomly assigned to a control condition or immersive “literacy scavenger hunt” where they self-explored opportunities to engage in unconstrained activities within everyday routines. The scavenger hunt was associated with an increase in parents’ endorsement of unconstrained activities and verbal communication within parent–child interactions. Results are discussed in terms of intervention approaches that build adult capacity around supporting children’s early literacy.

“识字无处不在!:利用数字技术拓宽家长对家庭文化环境的看法
亲子参与约束性(如学习字母或发音)和非约束性(如讲故事、定义单词)读写活动是家庭读写环境的核心组成部分。不受约束的活动对儿童的口语和入学准备特别重要。然而,许多家长没有认识到无限制的活动可以促进学习。本研究考察了一种沉浸式工具是否能帮助父母认识到不受约束的活动的重要性,以及如何将学习融入日常家庭生活。76名三岁孩子的中低收入父母被随机分配到控制条件或沉浸式“扫盲寻宝游戏”中,在那里他们自己探索机会,参与日常生活中不受约束的活动。在亲子互动中,寻宝游戏与父母对不受约束的活动和语言交流的认可增加有关。结果讨论了在支持儿童早期读写能力方面建立成人能力的干预方法。

期刊介绍: The focus of this multidisciplinary journal is the synthesis of research and application to promote positive development across the life span and across the globe. The journal publishes research that generates descriptive and explanatory knowledge about dynamic and reciprocal person-environment interactions essential to informed public dialogue, social policy, and preventive and development optimizing interventions. This includes research relevant to the development of individuals and social systems across the life span -- including the wide range of familial, biological, societal, cultural, physical, ecological, political and historical settings of human development.
