Abstract

Traditionally, information systems (IS) research investigates socio-technical systems in organizations and the workplace. As IS have become an integral part of our daily lives, IS research nowadays also incorporates the private space. However, efforts to date have mostly focused on adults. Children, born into a digital world today, have been mostly left out. Yet our discipline not only has the potential to contribute to the adequate and child-friendly design of IS artifacts for children but can also help to further develop theories on children's behavior. For this to succeed, IS researchers need to adapt their approach to children. Ethical considerations should address children's vulnerability, the design of interventions should happen in close collaboration with children, research methods should be child-centered, and the specificities of children should be kept present in result analyses.
