Kids, Computers, and Early Childhood in the UK - with Naomi Kerr

Education systems are different around the world - but we can strive to make them as good and effective as possible no matter where they're located. This episode features Naomi Kerr, a pedagogical developer who used to be an Early Years teacher in the UK. She sat down with me to talk about her time teaching ICT (Information, Communication, and Technology) to little ones in rural UK, and discusses some of the differences between Finnish education and UK education.

"Kide Science is a research-backed, play-based STEAM education pedagogy for teachers of young scientists. Traditional, theory-first science learning is swapped for exciting, interactive science play. While our pedagogical approach may be rooted in imagination, we take our responsibility for raising the next generation of critical thinkers very seriously:  five years of research, a  big team of scientists and educators, and thousands of hours of content creation means we take STEAM seriously!"
