在过去的十年里,幼儿教育界和普通公众对幼儿及其使用技术的讨论发生了巨大的变化。这场辩论似乎已经从Vail(2001)在题为“年轻有多年轻?当谈到电脑使用时,理性的人会持不同意见。对幼儿使用科技的告诫提供了重要的指导(美国儿科学会,2011),但也很明显,幼儿科技的使用正在迅速扩大(Kaiser Foundation,2010)。因此,教育工作者应该问和回答的更重要的问题应该是,年幼的孩子使用了多少科技才是‘恰到好处’?就像金发姑娘经过反复试验,找到了“恰到好处”的粥、椅子和床一样,这个问题的答案可能还需要一段时间才能明确达成一致。使用有关幼儿适当做法的知识将有助于指导寻找这些重要的答案。
The conversation about young children and their use of technology has dramatically changed over the past ten years in the early childhood education community and in the general public. It appears the debate has moved forward from the question posed by Vail (2001) in her article titled, “How Young Is Too Young? When It Comes to Computer Use, Reasonable People Disagree.” Cautions about technology use with our young children provide important guidance (American Academy of Pediatrics, 2011), but it is also evident that technology use with young children is expanding rapidly (Kaiser Foundation, 2010). Therefore, the more important question for educators to ask and answer should be, “How much technology use by young children is ‘just right’?” Much as Goldilocks went through trial and error finding the porridge, chair, and bed that was “just right,” it may be some time before the answer to this question is clearly agreed upon. Using knowledge about appropriate practices with young children will help guide the search for these important answers.
