“…Educators at these services used technological resources contemporaneously with other resources, such as the Internet alongside books to access information. This aligns with Edwards (), who acknowledges the difficulty in separating technology in children’s play from more traditional resources due to interrelations and inter‐reliance between them. Findings from this study provide examples of educators also using technologies—both tangible (such as touch screen devices) and intangible (such as Internet searches) alongside traditional resources (such as reference books)—in an integrated and complementary way within a play‐based curriculum.…”

The ubiquity of technology in contemporary society positions it as a significant cultural tool in children’s lives. Definitions, conceptualisations and understandings of the relevance of technology are diverse which can hinder integration of technology in early learning settings. This paper presents findings from a doctoral research project that investigated Australian educator beliefs and practices in relation to technology integration within play‐based curriculums for children aged three to five years. The key findings presented relate to creating connections and shared conceptualisations of technology between educators, families and directors of early learning services. Shared understandings of the sociocultural relevance of diverse technological tools were found to facilitate technology integration in the curriculum. Rogoff’s (1995) three planes of analysis were utilised to identify and understand the interplay between the personal, interpersonal and community levels of sociocultural activity. A significant implication is identification of the need for professional discussion, professional learning and critical reflection opportunities to extend educator understandings of technology as socially, culturally, and pedagogically relevant for young children. Sharing this knowledge in collaborative partnerships between educators, families and management can support children’s development as digital citizens.

The purpose of the research is to increase motoric ability and mathematical logic for early children through playing engklek traditional game. The basic subject of the research is on group B Permata Bunda kindergarten by using the experimental design. The method of this research is action research which using the technique of collecting and monitoring the activity sheet of the descriptions of the data analysis. This procedure involves four phases. They are planning, action, observation and reflection. The results showed that the implementation of Engklek traditional games increased students motoric skills and mathematical logic student. Engklek Traditional game is more effective than conventional learning in the experimental phase.
