Bibliography on the ethics of researching children’s use of online technology

I finally got around to sending off my form today for a Sconul card. It is going to be much better having full access to my local university’s library and I’ve taken the plunge on signing up to Mendeley. I really like the way you can add friends and share resources on Mendeley.

Here’s a list of resources on the ethics of researching children’s use of online technology.
