abstract: 'The term App is a short way to name the ``application{''''} in singular
and plural. The following paper based upon a teachers log, summarizes
some of the most important experiences a group of teachers faced
previous, during and while using iPad applications to stimulate kids,
from 45 days to 4 years old. Based on a timeline we introduce both the
enthusiastic experience and the scientific perspective, only with the
objectivity and the theoretical frame to support the paper, but in a
storytelling way, to take the readers with us in a journey that helps
them visualize the experience, closer to the feelings but not so far
from the objectivity of the science. From Apps designed to provide
infants with essential stimulation during early stages of development to
Apps that help teachers to facilitate the reading and writing process at
the time they enjoy and explore the technology in a friendly and natural
way. As a result of our research project, we found that some apps are
based on decades of research and beautifully designed, they were planned
to provide as much stimulation as possible, some of them use bold,
high-contrast symbols, shapes, patterns, and captivating sounds, proven
to be preferred by infants. We decided to use apps as teaching aids and
we chose those with a higher level of stimulation in the areas of
cognitive and motor development, but with impressive potential to
provide with significant visual tracking, scanning, and object
permanence, the aim was considered in two main ways, using English as a
communication channel and technology that speeds myelination of brain
cells. On the other hand, the term `early intervention'' designates
educational and neuro-protection strategies aimed at enhancing brain
development. Using technology as one of these strategies increases both
the teaching experience for the teachers in charge of the early
stimulation, as well as the learning experience for babies. Early
educational strategies seek to take advantage of cerebral plasticity,
according to the experts, from the born day to the age of seven,
represent the most adequate and important period to generate as much
neuro-connections as possible. In our experience we have observed that
kids respond naturally and friendly to the chosen apps as teaching aids
to present vocabulary, to practice hand writing, to read stories and to
have fun at the time they practice math, sciences and other skills.
Early stimulation programs were first devised in the United States for
vulnerable children in low-income families; positive effects were
recorded regarding school failure rates and social problems. In the
language learning area, we decided to put in practice a stimulation
program in the University of Colima''s Baby Day Care Department BDCD
(Estancias Infantiles in Spanish). The institution attends the kids of
every woman that works for the University. It is organized in rooms that
keep the kids in periods of 6 months, the first three years and twelve
months for the last year they spend at the BDCD. The class took place
two days a week for each room in sessions of 30 minutes a day. The
results so far shows positive results, from the day we began to now we
had a great amount of significant experiences we would like to share in
a full paper, as well as in the presentation.'
