The use of technology to improve the health and nutrition outcomes of children has been improving in recent years with many resources available online. Additionally, the expansion and continued growth of the Internet allows a method of access to information that transcends the traditional geographical obstacles in providing educational resources to parents in rural communities. A review of research and resources online to support parents with early childhood development is presented. A challenge identified in use of technology is the “silo” mentality of resources and the integration of education, health, nutrition, and social well-being information as a single resource for parents. Based on the research a comprehensive resource model is presented that integrates essential maturational and academic development for children. Additionally, the use for improved metrics and their development is provided.

The covid 19 pandemic that has hit the whole world has caused changes in various aspects of life, one of which is the world of education from the PAUD/TK, SD, SLTP, SLTA to tertiary levels must take online learning to break the chain of the spread of the covid 19 virus. This research uses the method qualitative (Classroom Action Research) which refers to observations and interviews. The learning carried out for early childhood uses the Blended-Learning method which is an approach using a mixed method between face-to-face and the use of technology for distance learning. Learning using blended-learning is suitable for the development of early childhood learning because teachers can directly interact or face-to-face through online media such as videocall, zoom, and google meet. Where this learning can also increase children's enthusiasm, school from home with parental assistance. The goal is that learning can run effectively and children can understand what the teacher is saying. The results showed that children can interact well, and are enthusiastic about doing activities that will be carried out the same as in schools in general, teachers can see the active role of students in activities, the active role of parents accompanying children at home during activities, teachers can assess directly how the role of the child during the activity, whether it is capable enough or still being helped. So that an assessment is achieved according to aspects of early childhood development.

Abstract Early childhood education has a role to play in constructing a sustainable society. In particular, increasing global attention has focused on how early childhood may help alleviate poverty among children and their families and promote economic growth. Part of this discourse involves the use of technology as a means to improve the quality of early childhood education and optimize the potential for information and communication technology (ICT) to serve as an agent of development. Jamaica’s appropriation of technology as part of the early childhood development agenda has emulated Western notions of success. However, the introduction of technology innovations has cultural implications. This study describes and explains perceptions, beliefs and practices about technology among four early childhood teachers in a Jamaican infant school. The findings consider issues for capacity building, including teacher professional development in Jamaica.

Recent improvements in child health have led to substantial decreases in child mortality globally.1 While progress is still needed, especially in regions afflicted by conflict and political instability,2 the next step is to promote young children’s development and early learning so they can remain healthy, take advantage of growing educational opportunities, and contribute to their communities’ economic growth. Every year, approximately 249 million children, mainly from low- and middle- income countries, fail to reach their developmental potential in the context of poverty and related health, nutrition, and social factors.3 Recessions and climate change additionally contribute to loss of developmental potential globally.4–7 While principles of early childhood development are universal, a global perspective must consider exposure to extreme poverty and high prevalence of infectious diseases, cultural context, and availability and type of resources. This chapter will describe biological and social factors that influence brain development and early learning and resilience, their cultural context, and examples of successful child development interventions globally. We also provide recommendations to rapidly accelerate the promotion of early childhood development globally with key strategies, including an emphasis on universal prevention programs rather than universal screening, multigenerational models that emphasize universal support for parents and targeted support for high-risk populations, integration of child development programs into child health and nutrition efforts, and use of technology.
