journal contribution
posted on 2017-08-01, 10:43 authored by Dawn E. Watkins, Effie Lai-Chong Law, Joanna Barwick, Elee KirkThis paper discusses the key findings of an exploratory study Law in
Children’s Lives funded by the Economic and Social Research Council
(ESRC) under its transformative research grant scheme. Using a speciallydesigned
digital game as a research tool, the study has assessed and
explored the legal understanding and knowledge of over 600 children aged 8-
11 years, situated in the context of scenarios that children themselves
identified as being relevant to their everyday lives.
