Growing up in Technological Worlds

Tully, Claus J. (2003). Growing up in technological worlds: how modern technologies shape the everyday lives of young people. Bulletin of Science Technology Society, 23, 444-456, http://bst.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/23/6/444, DOI: 10.1177/0270467603260812

The purpose of this article is to show how young people typically interact with technology. Young people take up modern technology and incorporate it in their everyday lives more rapidly and more unceremoniously than others. This article also reports on recent findings of how social relationships disintegrate because of new technologies and on how young people are challenged by it.
