Sharing Web Resources


I have a wonderful website that I would like to share with all of my graduate school friends. This website is called, “Technology for a Global Early Childhood Education”. This website is geared towards helping early childhood educations find resources and information about using technology within the classroom. I know that I am always looking for new ideas, including the use of technology. The link to this site is http://globalearlyed.wordpress.com/.

In this website they have many links and ideas on how to make a classroom global in the sense of technology. This would mean making sure that every student understands technology, how to use it, and how to adapt different technologies for new usages. Looking at the one article provided on their website titled, “Global Education: Bringing the World to Your Classroom” it has shown me how lucky the students that are in the United States are with the advancement of Education. Other European countries along with China and Japan have great technology resources within the classroom. Because of this according to the article, this is why these children are advanced in their schooling. They are advanced because of the use of technology to make items concrete and be able to visit “globally” to understand and see different concepts.

I would highly recommend visiting this website. This has truly helped me become a more educated teacher in the sense of technology just by viewing this website.

  1. It is nice to know that the children in our state are well advance. Some of the professionals think negative concerning the children in the United States because he or she does not think these children can learn and be successful.
