The Effect of Information Technology Applied to Preschool

With the rapid growth of the information technology, the usage of computer technology and Internet is used more common in the preschool as well as at home. The application of integration of information technology into preschool classroom can be carried out in form of multimedia information. Computers may be used to support student learning When applying information technology into the early childhood classroom learning environment some factors should be considered. Teacher’s knowledge about the technology, software, the way the software used and creating an appropriate environment, Parents’ support in the home. Can computer usage benefit, no effect or detrimental to the child’s personal growth. What kind of guidelines should apply to technology within the early childhood curriculum? Can computer usage can help children develop better social relationships with peers? (Jones & Selby, 1997).

The purpose of this study is to explore the issues of applying information technology to early childhood education in Taiwan and Australia. The effects of the integration of information technology applied in preschool will be evaluated to look into the outcomes of learning attitude and achievement in preschool. Experiments will be taken setting students of preschool as research object; gives courses to two groups, one is the group integrated with information technology and the other is the traditional group. Research tools such achievement test as well as questionnaire of attitude are used to explore the following aspects.
1. What kind of information technology is suitable to be used ?
2. Children’s cognitive and social abilities
3. The influence on child development
4. Teacher’s knowledge about the technology, software and the way to create a proper environment
5. The relationship among children, teacher and parents after applied information technology
6. The influence on learning attitude and achievement on different teaching methods and ability level

The appropriate use of information technology has many implications for early childhood professional development. I have studied computer programming at Woman College of Technology in Leeds England, and I have been working in the early childhood education for several years. Therefore, I have sound background on information technology and early childhood education. I hope this study can find some guidelines about the way to apply information technology to preschool and how to make children, teacher and parents work together to create a appropriate environment so children can have better achievement and social abilities on their development

Me and my friend Lou went over to the local look and jerk strip club. And they got this chick sliding up and down on a pole. Hey, I ain't making this s*** up. What's that about? If a babe needs a pole that big, I'm in big trouble. So, anyway we're watching this and all of the sudden I realize that she looks just like my dog, Ole Ernie, humping a shovel.

For this I gotta pay 7 bucks for a beer?
