Vincent College
Technology has paved the way for new and exciting teaching
practices. In this collection of articles from NAEYC’s journal
Young Children, teachers of young children will learn about
approaches for using various technologies to support their work
with children and families. Articles share ideas about how teachers
can integrate technology into the curriculum in appropriate and
meaningful ways to promote children’s learning.
The book provides a study guide for each article. Guides offer
questions and activities that invite reflection and build on the
content of the articles. Teacher educators and professional
development specialists will find the study guides useful tools for
facilitating learning. Readers also can use the study guides on
their own or in discussions with colleagues or fellow students.
Additionally, the book includes the joint position statement
“Technology and Interactive Media as Tools in Early Childhood
Programs Serving Children from Birth through Age 8” from NAEYC and
the Fred Rogers Center for Early Learning and Children’s Media at
Saint Vincent College.
This book is part of NAEYC’s best-selling Spotlight series—great
resources for the college classroom and for professional
development.
