Abstract

In this paper we critique existing research on the role and nature of digital technology use in Preschools. The majority of the literature points to overwhelmingly positive outcomes for young children when digital technology is thoughtfully used in play based learning contexts. However, despite the wealth of evidence that the use of tablets can be beneficial to preschool students, early childhood teachers often report being uncomfortable in teaching STEM. We suggest that, if accompanied by suitable professional development, tablets are an important addition to early childhood contexts. [This paper is the first in a symposium of three papers.

For the third paper, "The ERA Heuristic in Action: Observations from the ELSA Pilot," see ED604739.]

Abstract

"Preparing Critical Faculty for the Future" describes actions that every type of higher education institution can take to recognize and support inclusive excellence among faculty and build the capacity of women faculty of color to advance in their careers and contribute to higher education reform efforts. The report turns a spotlight on the work of HBCUs as leaders in the education and graduation of STEM students, focusing in particular on the underexplored role of STEM women faculty of color, both in supporting student success in STEM fields and, over time, in driving campus changes that can make any college more effective in educating all students.
