3-2-1 Technology and Young Children

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/299457642_Technology_Use_in_Early_Childhood_Education_A_Review_of_Literature


I chose this article because it takes into consideration both views concerning using technology for young children.
On the one hand, much research points to the conclusion that young children should learn using concrete materials and that too much technology can overload their brains. This view recognizes dangers of using or overusing technology such as social isolation, loss of interactive skills and loss of imagination.
On the other hand, there are researchers who believe that technology is developmentally appropriate for young children and it can help them with literacy skills, increasing motivation, and supporting students with disabilities or difficulties.
