How much and what kind?: Identifying an adequate technology infrastructure for early childhood education

Description:
To realize the potential benefits of technology use in early childhood education (ECE), providers, families of young children, and young children themselves must have access to an adequate technology infrastructure--an infrastructure that allows them to perform all of the tasks and functions that flow from the goals for technology use in ECE. Identifying specific requirements for this infrastructure of devices, software, and connectivity is neither a straightforward nor an easy undertaking, because many factors--such as the rapid pace of technology development--make an "adequate infrastructure" a moving target. In this policy brief, we identify challenges and examine how a wide variety of government and nongovernmental stakeholders might collaborate to define what constitutes an adequate technology architecture, and to help ensure that it is realized.
