Effective Devices And Its Positive Effect On Children

A research that investigated the idea of employing appropriate devices and its positive effect on children, children at an early age can use computer programming and computerized exercises in a method in accord with educationally appropriate implementation (Bern, Horn 2010). The main purpose of this research was to employ the technology of TUI (Tangible User Interface) to principally re-visualize the method children use for computer programming, the improvement included the curriculum and the technology used. The experiment’s duration was two years and was applied on three kindergarten classrooms. The research aimed to answer certain questions including: â€Å"If the children were provided with appropriate technologies, are they qualified†¦show more content†¦The experiment aimed to assess the success of combining robotics in the classroom’s curriculum. Descriptive and numeric approaches were used and that included interviews, blogs and surveys. The experiment provided some suggestions regarding the efficiency of implementing robotics curriculum in classrooms, some of these were the importance of providing materials that imitate the traditional classroom’s tangibles, an educator who is willing to participate in the experiment and a cooperating student setting. The effects of using technological devices on children: By the Association of Psychological Science (2010) the research was to assess the effects of learning DVDs directed to children, especially infants, and how much children actually benefit from them. A sample of children age 12-18 months were exposed to a set of popular DVDs that teach children new words for a period of 4 weeks. The study concluded that children did not benefit from these DVDs and their word list did not expand compared to children who were not a part of this experiment, and it turned out that parents contributed on giving an inaccurate feedback regarding these DVDs. The main results of this research can be summarized into two essential points: the first point parents whose children participated in this
