Ashford 6: – Week 5 – Discussion 2

Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.

Technology   and Young Children

 View the webcast, Technology and Interactive Media as Tools in Early Childhood Programs.  As you watch, make note of the benefits and possible limitations of using technology with young children.  You will then construct a discussion post in favor or against the use of technology with young children, based on your assigned group below: If your last name begins with the letters A – M,      you will respond in favor of technology.  If your last name begins with the letters N – Z,      you will respond against the use of technology.   

Be sure to include specific examples from the webcast to support your stance.  Your initial discussion post should be at least 200 words in length.
