Using technology in early childhood instruction

الملخص EN

I found a big difference in the patterns of education between Saudi Arabia and the United States.

In Saudi Arabia, I learned by direct instruction.

This type of learning relies on the teacher‟s ability to explain the information to the students, since the students just sit and listen.

Therefore, there is no discussion or freedom for students to express their ideas.

However, in the United States where my daughter is studying, students are actively involved in their learning process.

Here, the teaching style involves both the student‟s critical thinking and the teacher‟s assessment at the same time.

The purpose of my project is to identify how to use technology in early childhood language instruction.

I would like to apply effective teaching ways to integrate technology in early childhood language instruction.

I will utilize these effective teaching ways when I go back to my country.

It helps students to improve their ability in understanding the lesson.

Also, it increases their cognitive, social, and technology skills.

The problem is to determine how to integrate technology in early childhood language instruction; I will focus on how can teachers prepare themselves to use technology in early childhood language instruction, and what are the effective ways to use technology in early childhood language instruction?
