Synopsis: |
The primary aim of this new volume in the "Supporting Early Learning" series is to help readers understand how very young children (from birth to six) develop an early awareness, and subsequently develop their knowledge, skills and understandings of information and communication technologies (ICTs). The rapid growth of ICT has prompted concerns among parents, educators and policy-makers over the suitability of many educational applications, and electronic toys, for young children. However, evidence is presented to show that the use of ICT by young children is compatible with the principles of a developmentally appropriate curriculum (DAC). In fact, the authors argue that used imaginatively, many applications of ICT can make a significant and unique contribution to children's social and cognitive development. The authors show how parents and other carers, teachers, and other professionals are already providing a rich learning environment in this area of experience. |
