Digital Technologies and Marginalized Youth

Published: 09 June 2010 Publication History

Abstract

Marginalization threatens basic issues of fairness and equal opportunity for a significant portion of children around the world. In this extended abstract, we frame the problem of marginalization in light of new economic forces and the increasingly ubiquitous role of digital technologies. We then summarize the contributions to the IDC 2010 workshop on Digital Technologies and Marginalized Youth. We conclude by discussing research trends and identifying challenges for future research.
