| Description: | |||
| Information and communication technologies are important tools in teaching and learning. This unit will emphasise the principle that children learn with technology rather than from it. Preservice early childhood and primary teachers will be introduced to the range of applications of these technologies across the curriculum. A number of issues will be addressed such as the appropriateness of computer software and its use with a diverse student population as well as a critical analysis of the values inherent in these technologies. Students will be required to reach a level of competency with common computer and internet software applications and digital media. Full Unit Outline | |||
