UK Children Go Online

http://www.children-go-online.net/

This project was undertaken to investigate what young people in the UK are doing online. The primary researcher was Prof Sonia Livingstone from the London School of Economics. It was supported by several organisations including the UK Office of Communication (Ofcom),

The report outlines a range of findings that aim to provide a snapshot of which young people are participating online and what they are doing there.

This is very useful data, some of which contradicts commonly held assumptions, and hype, about the “digital generation”.
