BACKGROUND
5. THE USE OF ICT IN EARLY LIFE
EDUCATION
Children’s early literacy
and play experiences are
shaped increasingly by
electronic media (Luke
1999). So, in order to
empower children and
assist them in becoming
competent and active
participants in their
environments, they must
be given opportunities to
develop “technological
literacy”.
6. The use of ICT in early life education Contd.
* If used thoughtfully and
innovatively, it can help
children express themselves,
verbally, visually, and
emotionally.
* Also ICT provides a variety of
ways for children to weave
together words, pictures, and
sounds, thereby providing a
range of ways for children to
communicate their ideas,
thoughts, and feelings.
7. The use of ICT in early life education Contd.
* ICT can support writing for
young children as well as
reading or pre-reading skills.
* ICT can help children’s
storytelling skills such as even
children who are not yet writing
could dictate words to go with
their pictures, or they could
record their voices telling the
story, or be videotaped as they
tell the story and show the
picture.
8. Computers can play a
role in young children’s
early
childhood education
experiences alongside
many
other kinds of
activities.
Note: ICT should not
be seen as a way of
superseding or
displacing these kinds
of experiences.

condemn introduction
of ICT in the early years
on the premise that it
promotes anti-social
behaviour like
isolation, aggressive
behavior,
