註釋This study investigated the effects of digital learning environments on the cognitive, social, and emotional development of Generation Alpha children (born from 2010 onwards) compared to traditional learning methods. A sample of 100 children (aged 7-12) was randomly assigned to either digital (n = 50) or traditional (n = 50) learning groups. Participants were assessed over a 6-month period using standardized tests, behavioral observations, and self-report measures. Results revealed significantly higher comprehension scores in the digital group (M = 81.62%, SD = 2.94) compared to the traditional group (M = 74.58%, SD = 2.94), t(98) = 14.29, p < .001, d = 2.86. The digital group also demonstrated superior problem-solving skills (M = 4.34, SD = 0.16) compared to the traditional group (M = 3.88, SD = 0.16), t(98) = 14.29, p < .001, d = 2.86. Contrary to prevailing concerns, the digital group exhibited higher quality social interactions (M = 3.94, SD = 0.16) than the traditional group (M = 3.48, SD = 0.15), t(98) = 14.29, p < .001, d = 2.86. However, the digital group showed lower physical activity levels (M = 3.20, SD = 0.08) compared to the traditional group (M = 3.68, SD = 0.11), t(98) =-14.29, p < .001, d =-2.86. Emotional responses varied across learning scenarios, with positive experiences associated with game-based learning (M = 84.83%, SD = 4.13) and creative activities (M = 81.83%, SD = 2.74). These findings suggest that digital learning environments offer significant benefits for Generation Alpha children's cognitive and social development. However, a balanced approach integrating both digital and traditional methods may be necessary to ensure holistic development, particularly in areas such as physical activity.
