New technologies are dramatically changing the face of education and the nature of childhood itself. In Shift to the Future, Nicola Yelland examines the ways in which these technologies are reshaping the social, personal, and educational experiences of childhood, and explores the curricular revisions such changes demand. With a focus on the various information and communications technologies (ICTs) available to young students and the possibilities these ICTs offer for teaching and learning, Shift to the Future provides inspiring examples of teachers who have innovatively incorporated new technologies into their classrooms to engage their students in contemporary times.
Technologies are dramatically changing early childhood education in the twenty-first century, as well as the face of childhood itself. This book provides young children with a myriad of possible activities and explorations. It looks at how we can explain and understand the nature of these differences and explore their implication for education.
