In this chapter, the authors examine the design process and outcomes of a digital storytelling with elementary-aged English language learning families. The program was iterated through a multi-step design process to integrate the use of digital storytelling on mobile devices with family literacy. In this chapter, they explain why adults and children needed worktime separately before they collaborate and that a focus on funds of language, culture, and relevance foster willingness to engage with digital literacy. In working with English language learning families, they found the following themes: when it comes to schooling, everything is in English; confidence in learning about technology, literacy, and storytelling; and coexistence (spending time together). This chapter examines that the power and availability of mobile technologies, coupled with the traditions of storytelling, can transform language and literacy outcomes.

The transfer of knowledge and skills to the K-12 classroom is a central objective for any teacher preparation program. This chapter highlights how the skill of developing critical conversations around diverse literature can be woven into the coursework of any teacher preparation program. Theories such as Rings of Culture, Authentic Text, and Implicit Learning anchor this chapter. This chapter provides a practical strategy for building the capacity in teacher candidates necessary to transfer the authentic application of diverse literature to promote social justice and action to the K-12 classroom. The authors articulate how the high-leverage practice of developing Curated Conversations can be used to create environments that foster student voice, student choice, and student interest in any classroom. When modeled for teacher candidates, this strategy can become internalized into their practice and promote the development of professional educators committed to social justice and action.

Screening for early signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (before 36 months of age) allows an early diagnosis and early intervention programs that provide better developmental opportunities for the child. The objective of this chapter is to increase the knowledge about early signs of ASD enabling their early detection. The method used was a literature review of the early warning signs of autism spectrum disorder in children between 24 and 36 months of age in the domains that characterize this disorder.

In this chapter some practical activities to do in primary school classes are shown, and these concern classic themes of arithmetic and geometry but also more recent topics in statistics and probability. Naturally, all of them are based on pedagogical-didactic aspects noted in the preceding chapters. In particular, MatCos 3.0 environment is used. A complete TLS, from which the new methodology based on the MatCos programming environment emerges, will be presented. Finally, the simulation software package, DAF, is presented to illustrate the concept and related operations of the fractions.

The integration of digital games into learning aligns with society's needs in the 21st century. Although research shows that digital games have numerous benefits for students, such as psychological and language improvements, some teachers are skeptical of using digital games for classroom activities, due to their perceived negative impact. In this study, six ELL teachers in the upper Midwest of the United States were interviewed to examine their perceived appropriateness of digital games in teaching and learning. Findings indicate that the majority of the ELL teachers interviewed perceived serious games in a positive light, while they unanimously agreed that violent digital games could have a negative impact on a child's psychological, emotional, and social life. The teachers highlighted the rate at which children play those games, their violent nature, appropriateness, cyber bulling implication, and the need for an oversight from parents and teachers as reasons why.
