Contrary to the belief that computers isolate users, Karen Littleton and Paul Light demonstrate that learning with computers is often a collaborative and social activity. Learning with Computers brings together a significant body of research that shows how working with others at the computer can be beneficial to learners of all ages, from the early school years to the highest levels of education. It also investigates factors such as gender that explain why some interactions are not as productive as others.
Karen Littleton is a Lecturer in Psychology at The Open University. Her previous publications include Cultural Worlds of Early Childhood (1998), Learning Relationships in the Classroom (1998), Making Sense of Social Development (1998) (all edited with Martin Woodhead and Dorothy Faulkner)., Paul Light is Pro-Vice Chancellor at Bournemouth University. His previous publications include Learning to Think (1991) (edited with Sue Sheldon and Martin Woodhead) and Growing up in a Changing Society (1991) and Becoming a Person (1991) edited with Martin Woodhead and Ronnie Carr.
