A new book about information and communication technology

A new book about information and communication technology (ICT) and early years has been described as a 'must-read' for all nursery practitioners. More than Computers: Information and Communication Technology in the Early Years was launched at the Early Learning in the Knowledge Society IBM European Conference held in Brussels last week. The book, by John and Iram Siraj-Blatchford, points out that ICT should be integrated with all forms of learning and should also involve a high level of creativity. 'These messages need to be understood not just at pre-school level but by all practitioners in the primary and secondary sector, and parents too,' said Jim Ayres, conference facilitator. 'This computer publication is very useful. I would be happy to recommend it.' More than Computers costs 3. Further details can be obtained from publications@early-education.org.uk or on 020 7539 5400.
