Abstract

Technology is changing the way children play. But should we be excited or worried about the introduction of technology into children's toys? This panel of smart toy experts will examine the advantages and disadvantages of technologically-enhanced play and will discuss potential psychological and developmental consequences of electronic playthings. Furthermore, the panel will explore how to evaluate smart toys and how to create usability guidelines for high-tech toys.
