Description:
In the 21st century, people live in a digitalized society where information and communication technologies (ICT) are essential. Research shows that integrating ICT in education settings can support the learning of children. However, difficulties can limit preschool teachers' implementation of ICT in teaching. In Hong Kong, little has been reported about the individual perspective of preschool teachers' using ICT. This study investigates how factors and views regarding ICT implementation influence 8 Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) preschool teachers. By conducting individual interviews, this study finds that utilizing ICT in Hong Kong preschool settings remains challenging for preschool teachers. Teachers' views and internal and external factors affect Hong Kong preschool teachers' integration of ICT during instruction. For instance, some findings include teachers' teaching approach, causes of addiction, lack of access to resources, eye health, and learning with physical teaching materials. This study discusses the support for preschool teachers in ICT-related professional learning and the importance of resources for promoting usage of ICT in early childhood education (ECE)
