Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can play an important role in optimizing education. ICT may support a pupil’s learning processes by accounting for initial competence or learning style, help the teacher in planning each pupil’s learning progress and results, present clear didactic pictures of individual progress to both pupil and teacher, assist teacher and school staff in administrating and organising teaching processes. This book explains how ICT can contribute to children’s learning, how it can be integrated into a play based curriculum and how it relates to key areas of learning such as collaboration, communication, exploration and socio-dramatic play. It offers concrete guidance for the development of centre based practice and on curriculum integration and the selection of developmentally appropriate educational software. It will be essential to all those working in early childhood education and to teacher educators and policy and curriculum developers in primary schools.
