  • Communication Books:Used by children with autism or those who struggle with verbal language, these books encourage a child to choose a small picture card. The card allows the child to ask for something or to answer a question. Called the Picture Exchange Communication System, PECS, it was created by Andrew Bondy, Ph.D. and Lori Frost, M.S.

Using Technology in the Early Childhood Classroom - 3 views

  • Modern technologies are very powerful because they rely on one of the most powerful genetic biases we do have — the preference for visually presented information. The human brain has a tremendous bias for visually presented information. Television, movies, videos, and most computer programs are very visually oriented and therefore attract and maintain the attention of young children.
  • 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.
  • Unfortunately, technology is often used to replace social situations and I would rather see it used to enhance human interactions. And I think that can happen.
