DUEK, Carolina  and  BENITEZ LARGUI, Sebastián. Childhood and technology in Argentina: interactions and intergenerational bonds. Nómadas [online]. 2018, n.49, pp.121-135. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n49a7.

The purpose of this article is to show the results of research on the processes of technological appropriation performed by children and also the gender inequalities in different regions of Argentina. The existing bonds among peers with adults and the role of the school are key factors in analyzing the practices and representations observed. The findings of the technobiographies carried out (interviews with children between 9 and 11 years old, in focus groups, individuals, parents and teachers) demonstrate how appropriations are collectively constructed based on rules that incorporate various possibilities and forms of control.

Keywords : childhood; information and communication technologies; appropriation; technobiography; gender; Argentina.
