The main goal of the Information Technologies class is to help raise individuals who are able to adapt to evolving technology, keep themselves up-to-date and take their place in the information society. We aim to enable our students to use technology in an active, creative and versatile way. To this end, our students learn to use information technologies as a tool in all fields and carry this habit into their daily lives as well.
In preschool, The Information Technologies is only offered as a subject course and follows a student-centric approach. The course language is Turkish.
IT classes at the preschool level aim to enable students to:
• Gain insights into technology, and to use it effectively and efficiently,
• Understand the uses of technological devices in daily life,
• Learn about basic computer hardware,
• Understand the operating principles of computers, machines and robots,
• Use the Internet in an age-appropriate manner,
• Become computer literate through educational games,
• Acquire analytic and creative thinking skills,
• Gain algorithmic thinking and problem solving skills through individual activities,
• Learn basic coding through robotic materials and grade-appropriate applications.
The Information Technologies classes follow a computer-assisted learning approach using digital resources for topics and games that will be covered through the academic year, as identified by a joint education plan developed with participation from classroom teachers. The classes take place in the Mac Laboratory with a MacOS personal computer for each student. In addition, a Maker Kids Club takes place every three weeks where students learn about the importance of developing and using technology via various activities
Information Technologies Events for Preschool Students:
• Europe Code Week
• Hour of Code
• Safer Internet Day
• Information Technology Week
• TED Rönesans College School Maker Faire
Students who are interested in the field are also encouraged to participate in national and international projects, workshops and competitions.
