Digital (Non)reality: Pedagogical Approaches to Involving “Alpha” Children in the Digital World

Abstract

How is the Bulgarian student doing in digital reality? How do parents and teachers contribute to the child‘s digital socialization? Is the digital educational environment in Bulgarian schools a reality or an unreality? These are just some of the questions that this article seeks to answer. It presents the results of an author‘s study among primary school-aged students. Based on the presented pedagogical perspectives of the inclusion of the Bulgarian “Alpha” children in the digital world, specific recommendations regarding their education have been formulated.
