Experiences with ICT in pre-primary Education during the student´s practical training

Abstract

Initial training of teachers and in particular learning and experience gained during the internship, are topics of great interest to improve curricula. This paper provides information on what is done in the children´s classrooms with ICT. It gives an overview of the knowledge and experience acquired by the students on ICT during the practice period. To obtain this information, a questionnaire, previously validated by expert judgment, was administered to students of the Faculty of Education after completion the practices. Although there was great interest to acquire “in situ” knowledge on how to use ICT in classrooms, little was accomplished in this study because only a few schools work with ICT at the pre-primary level
