Numeracy and Digital Technolog | Federation University

ECCOP2002 Numeracy and Digital Technolog

In this unit, pre-service teachers (PSTs) will explore numeracy and digital technology as essential components of early childhood education and everyday life. PSTs will engage with a broad range of mathematical concepts and investigate the integration of digital technologies; as tools for children's learning and as supports for educators¿ pedagogical practices. In collaboration with children, educators, and families, PSTs will extend children¿s existing knowledge, skills and interests through meaningful play-based learning experiences informed by contemporary approaches. A variety of strategies will be used to support, assess and communicate children's numeracy skills, fostering strong partnerships with families and enhancing educational outcomes. The unit encourages critical reflection on PSTs¿ own values, beliefs, and experiences with numeracy and digital technologies, and how these influence their teaching approaches. This unit includes a 10-day placement.
