I have been working at PaRK IS as a teacher since 2012, having accompanied several classes over the years. The beginning of the 1:1 iPad project and the existence of shared devices, since 2014, have brought us countless possibilities, helping us to better match the profile of each student. EdTech, by combining education with technology, allows us to put technology at the service of an innovative learning path. This leads to more meaningful learning and allows each student to express their creativity. The EdTech Team promotes reflection on the integration of technology in the classroom, at different levels of learning and in various areas of the curriculum.

Appearances:

EDUtech Europe 2023 Conference Day 1 @ 14:30

Show & Tell - The importance of EdTech in the early years

We will show how technology can enhance learning and engage children, while also addressing concerns about screen time and digital safety. Through interactive discussions and real-world examples, participants will learn about the latest trends and best practices for incorporating technology into early childhood education. The examination of the role of educators in supporting children's development in a digital world and the importance of parent-teacher collaboration, will be explored as well. By the end of this session, attendees will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to effectively integrate EdTech into their early childhood education programs.
