Task 6: Analysis of Chapters 4 and 5 of the book "ICT in Primary Education"
After reading chapter four of the book I mention that the organization of Oden in the centers is very important to make them accessible to children and make good educational use.
ideal is to have a class aimed at the computer with a series of computers and then at least one in every classroom in order to integrate it into daily faneas. The important thing is that teachers later this format and can go deeper into the applications without problems. On the other hand, we find the important task direto team played in the implementation of ICT project in the center. They design the project with the commission mostralo computer then motivator for the rest of the staff. It is clear that the faculty must agree to when working this resource. Training is another function of the management team is responsible for that training and learning in the faculty understood that all day through training recusos. It should be noted that the computer coordinator and inform the commission, uptake of ICT in school success. Then I will comment some of the most important functions carried out Computer Committee: put within reach of all programs and information coming to school. Keep computers in good condition. Include difretentes ICT in curriculum areas.
But really the centers are equipped with enough material to provide every child a computer? The reality is that no. There are material but never sificiente. And it does not have a wifi network that allows connections from any point of the center. Although the minimum would be to have four computers per classroom well electrically connected and the Internet. Having a range of extras also benefits the center, to have scanners and printers, cameras, cannon to project images, videos ... video camera, touch screens. The latter are of great p3 probecho for children with impaired eye-hand coordination. The following chapter discusses the basic programs. And they start commenting on your computer already has, the word processor like OpenOffice, drawing programs such as paint or kidprix, presentation software, the jclic ... And after talking about all these programs offer a series of pages with lots of challenging for children. Each and every one of them is valid for ICT work.
I entered at: http / /: www.educalia.org, presents a set and options in multiple languages \u200b\u200band multiple recipients as well as primary and infant children.
I have also visited the web http://www.waece.org/index.php. Here you will find many resources to work with children at all levels seems like a very complete page.
I have visited this other site that has caught my attention the title http://www.aulainfantil.com/ The highlight of this page that is has multiple recipients and children, educators, parents and schools.
And last I visited http://www.zoobarcelona.com/ on this page that there are activities children, it seems very interesting.
What I learned from this activity is that the functions of the faculty to introduce ICT are very important as well as the proper distribution of material. And above all teamwork to reach agreements concerning ICT. I have also learned that training and retraining of teachers has to be continuous to be current. And there is plenty of material to work in the classroom and to make ICT more than a part of normal classroom.
