Цифровизация образовательного процесса, получившая ускорение в эпоху пандемии, диктует необходимость изучения эффективных моделей взаимодействия обучающего с цифровыми технологиями, что обусловило актуальность данного исследования. В целях выделения ключевых принципов применения цифровых ресурсов в билингвальном (мультилингвальном) дошкольном образовании авторы провели онлайн-опрос, позволивший исследовать мнения и образовательные практики родителей и педагогов, работающих с детьми-билингвами 3 - 8 лет и применяющих компьютерные, мобильные и другие цифровые технологии в программах развития русской речи в России и за ее пределами. Результаты свидетельствуют о растущей востребованности мультимодальных цифровых обучающих объектов, ориентированных на детей дошкольного возраста, и необходимости развития профессиональных компетенций педагогов как медиаторов знаний. Полученные в ходе эмпирического исследования данные позволили авторам сформулировать важные принципы интеграции цифровых обучающих объектов, которые могут быть рекомендованы для рассмотрения родителями и педагогами, участвующими в развитии речи детей дошкольного и раннего школьного возраста. The digitalization of the educational process accelerated in the era of the pandemic calls for the study of effective interactional models between the learner and digital technologies, which explains the significance of this study. In order to highlight the key principles of the application of digital resources in bilingual (multilingual) preschool education, the authors conducted an online survey on the views and educational practices of parents and educators working with 3 - 8 years old bilinguals using computer, mobile and other digital technologies in Russian speech development programs in Russia and abroad. The results demonstrate the growing demand for multimodal digital learning objects aimed at preschool children and the need to develop the professional competences of educators as mediators of knowledge. The findings from the empirical study allowed the authors to formulate important principles for the integration of digital technologies, which could be recommended for consideration by parents and educators involved in speech development of early childhood and primary education.

Technology is a common occurrence in almost every elementary classroom today. In this research study, I am going to be discussing how technology can have both a positive and negative effect on students who have disabilities. My research methods included conducting an online survey and two interviews with parents and teachers. Through my research, I found that there are many concerns with how technology is used in the classroom, but for the most part it ends in a positive outcome for the students. However, there is always room for improvement when using digital technologies, and my research demonstrates that it takes cooperation between the parents and the teachers for technology to truly be successful for an elementary student. As a teacher candidate, my findings have shown how important technology is to elementary students, and how, when used in an appropriate manner, technology can be an incredible tool for students with disabilities to use.
