My radiant wall by Kaitlyn Harden https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb Made with panache en-us 2018-04-18 21:22:13 UTC 2026-03-17 07:43:24 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Diskette.png I am a Elementary Education major. My question is what age group should we introduce technology into the classroom? I have heard of certain parents not feeling comfortable with technology being introduce at a young age. What do you think? kaitlynharden134 https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253217019 2018-04-18 21:40:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253217019 I think technology is great for ages Pre-K and up, with moderation of course! I work at a daycare right now and the Pre-K kids learn a lot from educational games and videos online :) rstringer6 https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253225770 2018-04-18 22:48:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253225770 I agree with Regan that moderation is key. While educational games and such can be helpful to their education, I think learning and collaborating in hands-on activities with peers is especially important in younger students. crorick https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253236595 2018-04-19 00:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253236595 codyrosehull https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253573214 Technology is a great tool for children that are in Pre-K and up. It is important that we as teachers set boundaries and have taught the children how to use the technology in a respectful manner. If we do so then there should be no problem with children having technology at a young age. I think parents will understand. ]]> 2018-04-19 18:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253573214 Chelsea Howe - Response chelsearhowe https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253672851 I think introducing kids to technology while they are young is great, as long as it isn't too much technology use. Students can use technology to play educational games to help them learn. It is also important to introduce technology into the classroom because it teaches kids how to use it when they get older. ]]> 2018-04-20 01:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/253672851 Gabi Merritt's Response gabimerritt12 https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/254094613 I think it is important to introduce students to technology while they are young. Especially with how much technology is being used in this day and age. It is important for students to learn while they are young because they will use it a lot when they are older. However, It is important to make sure that at the same time students are not becoming too dependent on technology. Try to find a balance between the two.]]> 2018-04-22 01:53:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/254094613 Brianna Santos Response briannasantos67 https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/254194631 I think children should start using technology when they are young. Technology is getting more and more advanced and I think it's good for the future generation to be very comfortable using it. I think it could be excessive at a point though]]> 2018-04-22 22:39:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/254194631 tmlamberson https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/271000031 Children are starting to use technology at increasingly younger ages. We are transitioning into an era of technology and our education system needs to follow or it will fall behind. I don't believe there is any age too young for students to be using technology as many of them will already be using it anyway in their daily lives.]]> 2018-07-24 17:17:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kaitlynharden134/68knrwv3ofhb/wish/271000031
