@Suzy Oudah,
Typing skills helps fine motor skills.

Technology is a great way to learn reading and math through games and such.

The internet is a great source for researching almost every topic known to man. It's also a great way to maintain ties between student and tutor if the student is having difficulty on any given subject.

Most children in the US are already deeply immersed in technology and computers. But not all children are so lucky. Learning how to use computers and other forms of technology at school is great for those children who are below a certain income level where accessibility to technology is limited. Access to tablets and computers will help them get equal footing with those children who have that access at home.

@Suzy Oudah,
Educational software programs can allow each student to learn subject matter, in a particular area, at their own pace. This would provide a much more individualized method of teaching, and testing for comprehension and retention can help to ensure mastery at each level before the student progresses to the next step.

Hello all,
Take my good wishes.

Through computer teaching students are attracted towards studies and also pay attention on their studies, so I think computer technology is a better medium of teaching.

Thanks and Regards

@Suzy Oudah,
Hello Friends,

We live in an increasingly technology-based society. Children need to be prepared to enter a workforce and a world in which computers are a focal point of everyday life. There are several benefits of children using computers both in the classroom and at home.
Educational Benefits:
Being able to learn on a computer has opened up new ways for students to develop academically, especially those who struggle with a learning disorder. Countless websites offer reading and math interventions already designed to help students with specific disabilities. Whereas a teacher in the classroom once had to work long hours to find ways to help hard-to-reach children, the computer provides ready-made activities and interactive games for immediate use.
Communication Benefits: Because of computers and the Internet, our world is more closely connected than it has been in any other century. Children do not just have to study about other cultures and belief systems in a textbook.
Career Benefits: By being knowledgeable about computers and the World Wide Web, children will be able to research career opportunities as well as the universities that can prepare them for their chosen profession.
Accessibility Benefits: One of the main benefits of computers for children is the availability of knowledge and its instant access.
Personal Benefits: Through computers, children have the potential to change their outlook on their abilities, confidence and self-esteem. A shy or withdrawn child can talk to others from the privacy of a keyboard.

Best Regards

@Suzy Oudah,
Hello Friends,

The role of technology in early childhood special education is that of a tool for learning, communicating, equalizing opportunities, and creating positive changes in the learning environment. Technology can change the way children think, what they learn, and how they interact with peers and adults. It can also "teach the same old stuff in a thinly disguised version of the same old way."
1. Changes in Perspectives
2. Learning Mathematics and Science
3. Changes in the Adults' Role
4. Visions of Young Children, Computers, Mathematics, and Science

Best Regards
Duncan Jones

@Suzy Oudah,
Acquiring Computer for learning is the best solution because it allows children's to see the graphical representation of lesson.

@Suzy Oudah,
Technology plays a vital role in getting children focused in academics. My son studies at Sunnybrook School, Toronto. The teaching techniques that they employ are very techie. They have smartboards, powerpoint presentations, skype, video conferencing, websites, brainstorming etc to get the ideas straight into student's mind. This facilitates great and better output so yeah computers and technology are very important.
