The Early Years: Harness Your Tech Side
Ashbrook, Peggy
Science and Children, v49 n4 p26-27 Dec 2011
This column discusses resources and science topics related to students in grades preK to 2. The author discusses teachers using technology to help students develop a science inquiry. Teachers can use technology to help students develop a science inquiry--express ideas, document observations, research information, discuss results, and relate knowledge. Technology is an extension of teachers' senses that allows them to see and hear "more" in the classroom and to share their observations and thoughts more easily with a wider group of people. To support learning, rather than distracting students, technology has to fit the student and the student has to be motivated to learn to use it. (Contains 2 online resources.)
