Description

Technologies for Children is a comprehensive guide to teaching design and digital technologies to children from birth to 12 years.

Aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework and the Australian Curriculum: Technologies, this book provides practical ideas for teaching infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers and primary-aged children.

The third edition includes expanded content on teaching digital technologies, with a new chapter on computational thinking.

Key topics covered include food and fibre production, engineering principles and systems, and computational thinking.

The content goes beyond discussing the curriculum to consider technology pedagogies, planning, assessment and evaluation.

Case studies drawn from Australian primary classrooms and early childhood centres demonstrate the transition from theory to practice.

Each chapter is supported by pedagogical reflections, research activities and spotlights, as well as extensive online student resources.

Written by Marilyn Fleer, this book presents innovative, engaging and student-centred approaches to integrating technologies in the classroom.
