MrsWeasley Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 As ICT is a rapidly developing and changing area how you will keep up to date in order to provide the best service to children and their families The only thing that comes to mind, is that when something bigger and better comes out than the one you've got, you get a new one! But that can't be what it means? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi, I take it to mean similar to you with regards to being on the ball with resaonbly up to date equipment, as well as teachers being fully trained in new technology. Also the bit about children and their families, maybe something about VLE's and how parents/carers are able to access thier childs progress at a click of the button.

Upsy Daisy Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Keeping up to date with how other practitioners use new technology? Perhaps exchanging ideas on this forum e.g. using digital photo frames. Could you also talk about keeping up to date with things like EYFS and Every Child Matter etc online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 How about your knowledge of it being not just computers, introducing children to things like ipods, wifi, microwaves in the kitchen, beebots and other robotic/remote controlled things. Letting children use digital cameras and look at and manipulate their images on computers, print them out etc, as I was saying on another thread - let them do the register on the computer. Take an image on a mobile phone and send it to their Mum ..... the possibilities are endless and exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helen Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think it's also to do with keeping up with current research and thinking about the use of ICT in early years education. John Siraj-Blatchford has done quite a bit of work in this area, and one of his reports is here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
