Digital technologies in preschool education: a study with Cape Verdean educators
| Resumo: | Technological advancement of society is driving the use of digital technologies in education. In Cape Verde, educational initiatives that integrate technologies into the teaching and learning process are still scarce. This work focuses on the use of digital technologies in pre-school education by educators in Praia, Cape Verde. The methodological approach is mixed, qualitative, and quantitative, and the data collection instrument is the online questionnaire survey, applied from October 2020 to January 2021, to early childhood educators. The sample of participants was 60 early childhood educators from public and private kindergartens in the city of Praia. The results show that most kindergartens do not have digital technologies and early childhood educators express the need to acquire training in the ICT area for its pedagogical use. Therefore, it is urgent to equip kindergartens with digital technologies and invest in the training of educators, so that preschool children have access to more diverse, flexible, dynamic, and participatory teaching and learning environments centred on the student as a key element of the educational process. On the other hand, the combination of digital learning resources with the development of active pedagogical experiences allows the acquisition of new literacy skills, such as digital and other social skills, essential to face the challenges of a world in constant evolution and transformation. |
