Developmentally appropriate use of technology is possible by considering the Children in your care, your goals for them and how you can incorporate technology in a way that will help them reach those goals. Providers play an important role as mentors, coaches and guides. Now, let's explore some beneficial teaching strategies for working with technology, which starts with the importance of your own exploration of technology. Be sure to establish a positive mindset. It is important to be open minded to trying something new and to willing to explore alongside Children. If you aren't willing to try something new or unfamiliar, they will see that and might be less likely to try as well. Also, remember, it is important to start with what you know, make technology enhancements, part of your lesson preparation.
