Storytelling with Technology-Enhanced Artefacts: A Literature Review of Toolkits for Children

This paper explores how technology-enhanced artefacts can augment storytelling experiences for pre-school and school-aged children, particularly when utilised with puppets or doll-like figures. It presents a systematic literature review focusing on this specific application of technology in storytelling. The analysis employs a four-lens framework to evaluate the integration of technology in children’s storytelling, assess the alignment with STEM learning goals, and finally, investigate the facilitation of open-ended and collaborative storytelling by children.
