  • Maxwell King was blunt in assessing the ever-growing industry that churns out television shows, video games, Web sites and other media for kids: We don't need more crap, he told the audience at this week's Fred Forward conference. There's plenty of crap already.
  • Media products for babies, toddlers and preschoolers represent what is now a billion-dollar industry. How young is too young for TV and video viewing? What sort of shows and Web sites help children develop, and which ones keep kids from interacting with the real world? Combing through the thicket of mindless videos and slickly marketed characters to find the worthwhile educational elements is anything but easy.
  • One highlight of the conference: A chance to help shape the national guidelines about the role of technology in children's lives, which haven't been updated in 14 years. The NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) has announced that they're revamping those guidelines this year -- a very necessary move, given that the technology and media landscape has changed so drastically since 1996.

  • The audience offered up a long list of issues worth exploring -- everything from the role of technology in teaching children about emotion to the challenge of preparing teachers for tech-infused classrooms and even the environmental impact of high-tech toys.The guidelines will deal with the lives of children from birth to age 8. Conference participants agreed that the final position paper must take into consideration what a huge developmental range that represents.
  • Many speakers at Fred Forward pointed out that although Fred Rogers may not be here to advise us any longer, we can look to his wisdom to find some of the answers. Mr. Rogers knew, and demonstrated, that technology could be harnessed to educate and help develop young children's minds and spirits. But he also knew that sometimes kids need silence and space, freedom to explore the real world and a chance to move at their own pace.

    Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well. I tried to send the plan through the Listserv and I'm not sure if everyone was able to get it. Please follow this link to see a draft of the Tech on Deck plan for the Orlando conference. Last week, I had the pleasure to speak with Stephanie Olmore, director of NAEYC quality enhancement initiatives, regarding "Grandes Comienzo, Futuros Brillantes and the Tech on Deck. She mentioned that NAEYC is exploring to do things differently for the Orlando conference and that they would love to hear from us about how we can make Tech on Deck an event within the conference. I asked her about the possibility of getting donations though NAEYC that are designated to cover the cost of Tech on Deck and she said that this might be doable as they are exploring different things. She said that her team will start having conversations in January and that it will be helpful to have our proposal by then. I would like to have your feedback on the draft plan by December 27. Guiding questions/items: Venue (a room, exhibit hall, throughout the conference) Possible donors Possible speakers Who will or can staff this (volunteers, school, university in Orlando)? Let the discussion begin!

    From rethinking the educational process/Mass Customized Learning, providing examples such as using QR codes to individualize learning in K (video on how listed), data and information about the use of iPads in K/1st grade in Auburn schools and hearing middle school students tweeting about each of the sessions and sharing their perspective on what they have learned doing so-this event provided lots to think about. More information will continue to be added to the resource page.
