Technology's Child

Dr. Katie Davis is Associate Professor at the University of
Washington (UW) and Director of the UW Digital Youth Lab. For
nearly 20 years, Katie has been researching and speaking about
the impact of digital technologies on young people’s learning,
development, and well-being.


Katie uses the insights from her research to design positive
technology experiences for youth and their families and to
provide practical guidance to parents, educators, policymakers,
and technology designers. At UW, she mentors undergraduate and
graduate students and teaches courses on child development and
technology design.


She has published more than 90 academic papers and is the author
of three books, all exploring technology’s role in young people’s
lives: Technology’s Child: Digital Media’s Role in the Ages and
Stages of Growing Up, Writers in the Secret Garden: Fanfiction,
Youth, and New Forms of Mentoring (with Cecilia Aragon), and The
App Generation: How Youth Navigate Identity, Intimacy, and
Imagination in a Digital World (with Howard Gardner). In each,
Katie aims to make sense of the often-confusing landscape of
research and media messages about kids and technology.
