10 ways technology can aid inclusion in early childhood education today. Technology integration in early childhood education. Technology in Preschool activities.
ICT allows for integration of literacy skills and opportunities for collaboration. It engages students in reading and writing in ways not possible through traditional methods, allowing them to focus on content without concerns about handwriting. Text-to-speech technology lets students hear text read aloud simultaneously, while the internet provides high quality information and resources for research projects and real-time collaboration. Effective use of ICT in ESL classrooms requires tools like digital whiteboards, tablets, webcams and smartphones.
Computers can be effectively integrated into classrooms to benefit both students and teachers. They enable more individualized and self-paced instruction for students, expand educational access for those in isolated areas or who are homebound, and allow students to access a virtually limitless set of educational resources from anywhere. By making technology a regular part of education, students will gain digital skills that will help them succeed in future careers.
Students in grades K-2 can illustrate and communicate original ideas using digital tools by taking digital pictures of their families to create a slideshow in iMovie about their families that they can narrate. They can also act out a story, take pictures of each scene, and put together a digital storybook.
The digital landscape for education. We hear so many different opinions on topics such as digital natives, digital literacy and digital technologies such as ‘mobile’ that it is hard to know where to begin. In this session I identify where we currently are in UK education, where some of us are headed and what may be on the horizon to help us enhance the learner experience.
This document discusses myths surrounding digital ICT in education. It summarizes 3 key myths: 1) Providing schools with ICT will improve education quality, but research shows technology alone has not substantially changed teaching or learning; 2) Students learn better with ICT because they are "digital natives," but this theory lacks evidence and oversimplifies learners' relationship with technology; 3) Ubiquitous access to information makes people more informed, but information does not automatically become knowledge - students must develop skills to interpret and apply information. The document argues that deconstructing such myths is important to have a realistic view of technology's role and avoid misguided policy/investment decisions.
The document discusses trends in technology spending and access in K-12 education from 1997-98 to 2002-03. It shows increases in areas like internet use by teachers, schools with websites, and classrooms with internet connectivity. It then outlines emerging technologies like internet2, wireless networks, handheld devices, and potential applications in education like digital note-taking and interactive learning. Challenges discussed include keeping pace with students' technology skills and developing new forms of assessment.

Technology Revoluaation & Its Impact On SocietyDr.Amol Ubale
Technological developments have both positive and negative impacts on education. Positively, technology enhances teaching and learning by making lessons more visual and interactive. It also allows for global connections and removes geographical barriers to education through online learning. However, excessive technology usage is linked to declining writing skills as students rely more on digital communication. It has also increased cheating on exams and lack of focus in classrooms as students are more distracted by constant online connectivity. While technology motivates students and trains them for the future workplace, it also reduces imagination and critical thinking if overused. It also presents financial and health costs if not implemented carefully.
Information Technology has been introduced for making Revolutions in Education. Without making any Revolution, IT just substitutes the old black board, library notes, mechanical type writers and calculators. It is because, Data or Information is not a substitute for Knowledge. Learning, Teaching and Research are Knowledge-Intensive and not Data-Intensive. Information Technology must be redesigned to deal with Knowledge for which Mathew's Theories of Knowledge and Knowmatics can effectively be employed. They are the basis of Knowledge Industries - mass or industrial production, marketing and consumption of Knowledge.
The document discusses the use of information and communication technology (ICT) to assist language learning. It defines ICT as the transfer of ideas through electronic devices. It then outlines several applications of ICT in language education, including computer-assisted language learning (CALL), e-learning, and blended learning. CALL uses computer programs for language practice without internet access, while e-learning refers to online interaction between learners or teachers. Blended learning combines both online and offline elements. Specific ICT tools that can be used for language learning, such as Microsoft Office, Audacity, and learning management systems, are also described.
Mobile learning (mLearning) is using mobile devices like smartphones and tablets for educational purposes. It allows learning to occur anywhere and anytime since the devices are portable and can connect to the internet wirelessly. Spending on mobile learning is estimated to reach $246.9 million in 2011 as mobile devices continue gaining popularity starting with iPods and evolving to include smartphones and tablets. Mobile devices expand eLearning through their portability, ability to instantly access the internet and other features like cameras, music players, GPS, and messaging capabilities.
Digital storytelling allows students to tell personal stories using digital tools like PowerPoint, MovieMaker, and PhotoStory. It combines images, music, narrative, and voice to bring depth and color to stories. Benefits include developing computer literacy, presenting stories students may not otherwise share, and improving literacy and motivation as students engage with technology. Digital storytelling can be used across grade levels and develops important presentation skills.

Introduction/Policy and Legislation
Is there a place for technology in a
high-quality early learning experience?
Children are growing up in a digital
age that their parents and grandparents
did not have. Young children have a
variety of digital technology at their
fingertips. Computers, smartboards,
tablets, phones, DVD’s electronic toys
and games, e-books and audio
recorders. These devices are children’s
tools of their time and culture. “Early
childhood educators are the linchpins
in whether young children attend
enriched, dynamic environments
outside the home, where they are
exposed to language, conversation, and
activities guided by developmentally
appropriate practice. Teachers are the
ones who make critical decisions about
how children are exposed to and
interact with technology” (Evans,
2014).
Technology can be very useful for
children to learn and develop. They can
look up birds and what they sound like
or skype with children in another
country. Interactive story boards can
help children to construct meaning.
However, if not monitored technology
can be harmful and interfere with
development and learning of our young
children.
NAEYC and the Fred Rogers
Center are concerned about health
issues and obesity because children
spend too many hours in front of
screens and not enough time with gross
motor and play outside. They also
believe that technology and interactive
media can promote effective learning
when used intentionally. The principles
that NAEYC uses to guide adult’s
states, “Technology and media should
never be used in ways that are
emotionally damaging, physically
harmful, disrespectful or dangerous”
(NAEYC, 2012).
Advocacy
As Early Childhood Educators, it
is our duty to advocate for the use of
technology in a quality care environment.
It is imperative that we inform parents
and fellow colleagues on both the
advantages and disadvantages that
technology can have. Advances in
technology and interactive media are
transforming how we communicate, learn,
and educate in the home, office, and early
childhood settings (NAEYC, 2012). We
must also contact our local legislators to
request additional funding for technology.
When making decisions about
technology, program administrators must
be well advised on the ongoing cost of
technology including initial cost, the
ongoing costs of updating and upgrading
hardware and software, and unspecified
costs, such as additional items needed to
use the product (NAEYC, 2012). Attend
political events such as “Child Action
Day” in Harrisburg, PA, to voice the
importance of technology to state
legislators (NAEYC). Petition parents to
write letters to their community
representative.
Holding open houses, back to
school nights, and fun.

Information Technology In Education
Information Technology in Education, effects of the continuing developments in information technology (IT) on education.
The pace of change brought about by new technologies has had a significant effect on the way people live, work, and play worldwide. New and emerging technologies challenge the traditional process of teaching and learning, and the way education is managed. Information technology, while an important area of study in its own right, is having a major impact across all curriculum areas. Easy worldwide communication provides instant access to a vast array of data, challenging assimilation and assessment skills. Rapid communication, plus increased access to IT in the home, at work, and in educational establishments, could mean that learning becomes a truly lifelong activity—an activity in which the pace of technological change forces constant evaluation of the learning process itself.

1. 10 Things that are
good about ICT in
an Early Childhood
Education Inclusive
Classroom
2. 1 . Children find computers and any
other form of ICT device to be
motivating.
3. 2. Text, graphics or sound
can be accessed through
multimedia and this can
account for individual
learning styles and
strengths.
FACT: ICT can aid to moving from integration to inclusion. However, you need to ensure that
you and your staff are developing inclusive practices at your early childhood centre.
4. 3. There is a lot of software
that combines colour,
pictures, animations, sound
and humour which can grab
the children’s attention
who are turned off by
group work and listening.
5. 4. Social interaction is ripe
when ICT is integrated
effectively as children can
work together around the
computer focusing on the
learning task. This enables
them to develop their
language and social skills in
addition to learning from
their peers.
6. 5. Many keyboards offer
access to word processing
so that work is legible.
7. 6. Predictive packages can
make the difference
between thoughts in the
head and words on the
page.
FACT: E-inclusion is based on the social model of inclusion where
learning difficulties are created by the social context.
8. 7. Spell checkers are a great
way to help children learn
to spell if used correctly
and can make a difference
between chaos and
meaning.
9. 8. Assistive technology is a
form of ICT device that
helps children with
physical, sensory and
learning difficulties
overcome barriers.
10. 9. Drawing tools allow early
childhood teachers to
develop and provide visual
instruction sheets for
children who have
problems getting
information from listening
or reading.
FACT: It is important that you understand the demands placed on children in steps of
planned, technology-supported activities if you are to ensure that children with disabilities
are included.
11. 10. Don’t forget about the
power of the digital camera
that allows children to
record experiences and
achievements in a very
immediate way.
