> and Learning in After-School Care
>
> Drawing on extensive ethnographic research in after-school care services and
> engaging with contemporary media studies, Children and Media Outside the Home
> demonstrates how children's media practices are contoured by the environments
> in which they occur and highlights the differences across the spaces of home,
> classroom and childcare settings.

> Findings demonstrate that children's media use in after school care is social,
> collaborative, time-limited and peer-regulated.
