Digital Folklore in Early Childhood Disaster Education

摘要

In this study, the authors explored extensively about using digital folklore in early childhood disaster education. The researchers used a Comprehensive Literature Review (CLR) as a data collection tool and method of inquiry. The research followed the Seven-Step Model for CLR by Onwuegbuzie and Frels [1], which consisted of: exploring beliefs and subjects, initiating the search, storing and organizing information, selecting/deselecting information, extending search, evaluating and synthesizing information, and finally reporting the CLR. The authors explored conceptualizations and analyzed models used in early childhood disaster education that use digital folklore, as well as related studies. The comprehensive literature review shows that when folklore and digital technology are combined, they appear to create interesting and engaging early childhood disaster education. However, further scientific research is required, as there is a lack of empirical data on how it works exactly and also how effective it is. This study is aimed at improving our understanding of the use of digital folklore in early childhood disaster education by presenting a detailed overview of the existing debate and offering valuable guidance for future study.
