      I thought this article was very interesting. There are some helpful hint to sharing technology with the students. The point that stood out for me was that we as educators need to give the children the tools they need to have good hands on experiences to enhance their learning.

    I liked this article because it had cute ideas for integrating technology into early education. Its hard as an early childhood major to use technology cause you do not want to affect their development or make class more difficult, but i liked these ideas.

    I think as an Early Childhood Major it is hard to incorporate technology in the classroom not only because you don't want to affect their development but, I know that when I was in K-3 we went to a computer lab had completely different lessons that we did in a classroom. It related to the lessons but, it was taught by a different teacher.

    I really loved this article. Not only did it talk about technology for classrooms, but it gave real examples of how it was being used in schools. It is difficult sometimes to be creative but getting feedback and seeing how others are using it, can be extremely helpful! As I am on my way to earning my ECE degree, I look for these types of examples to start to get ideas for my own classroom and how I will work with students.

    I loved the example about the teacher who would comment on all of the students' blogs, and by the end of the year, the students could carry the discussions on their own. That just shows us as educators that students do have the ability to learn technology.

    This was very interesting. I found it a little funny when I saw the word relax but it is true that if you let students have the feeling that these valuable tools are theirs then they will take care of them. I feel for most children, who are taught to be careful with valuable things, this will be the case. Although, there are some kids who are never taught that nor taught respect for others things because they are just taught to be selfish. As a teacher this would be you job to show them that they need to care for valuable things and respect others property along with your own.

    I thought this article was very interesting. Students do have the ability to continue the use of technology with out the guidance of teachers, as this article points out.

I think diversity is something that grossly underrated how we learn directly related to were raised and the things go through on a daily basis. It's difficult be taught one way at home come school it completely different.

    Essays on Teaching | By: Catherine Balmeo (02/13/12) Views: 880 One of the challenges that educators face at present is on how to address the students' diversity in the classroom. Dr. Silver emphasized on the students' diversity that encompass readiness, gender, culture, home environment, learning styles, intelligence preferences and interest (Laureate,2007).

Using Technology in the Early Childhood Classroom - 0 views

  • The development of written language changed the way human beings developed, in large part by influencing brain development and expressed new brain-mediated capabilities that had previously been un-expressed.
  • Children need real-life experiences with real people to truly benefit from available technologies. Technologies should be used to enhance curriculum and experiences for children. Children have to have an integrated and well-balanced set of experiences to help them grow into capable adults that can handle social-emotional interactions as well as develop their intellectual abilities.

      Children need to have hands on experiences that will enhance their learning capabilities.
  • As parents think about the future they need to realize two things: technology is not going to go away and we are in the midst of a major sociocultural quantum shift. These technologies are revolutionizing the world our children will live in. So our task is to balance appropriate skill-development with technologies with the core principles and experiences necessary to raise healthy children. We must keep the core principles of healthy development in mind as we incorporate these technology and tools. If we do that we'll be fine. And at the heart of any healthy child is the opportunity for enriching and nurturing interactions with other human beings. I think the key to making technologies healthy is to make sure that we use them to enhance or even expand our social interactions and our view of the world as opposed to using them to isolate and create an artificial world.

      Children need to have balance. They need opportunities for using technology in the classroom; however, technology should not over take the educational goals.

  • In addition, there are a number of specialized programs that allow children with certain information-processing problems to get a multimedia presentation of content so that they can better understand and process the material. They are able to see the written words and see a visual image and hear the sounds — all at the same time. Combining these sensory-modalities helps a child to more efficiently internalize information about a topic. If they have, for example, an auditory processing difficulty or a reading disorder they may be very bright but they don't read very efficiently so if something is read to them on a CD-ROM with visual images they are better able to internalize the information. This helps these children feel better about themselves because they perform better. They're not as afraid of school anymore.

      For children who have a special need programs assist with the developmental need of that child. These programs help to build self esteem in children who have communication issues and have a difficult time processing information to be able to have a hands on approach to share their thoughts.

    This article talks about pros and cons with young children and using technology in the classroom. He says that it needs to be done at particular times and should take away from the social development that these children at this age are learning. Timing is everything to technology and children at a young age. Parents and teachers need to take in account, when they are using the technology application what are they missing out on? Social interactions, play time, nap time or just free time. This time could also be a time where the parent and the child can spend time together to learn and teach each other about what they are doing with the technology.

Evaluating the iPad for Education -- Campus Technology - 0 views

    A private liberal arts college in Oregon took Apple's iPad through its paces to test its value as a a tool for learning inside the classroom and out. The evaluation followed a pilot of Amazon's first-generation Kindle, which the college eventually decided against. Reed College is trying to find a way to go completely paperless in it's classrooms. It is interesting to note that this professor feels that students would be less likely to check email or log onto social networking sites on an ipad because they are smaller and more difficult to hide behind than a laptop.
