Povzetek

Članek predstavlja uporabo IKT v vrtcu ter enoletne dejavnosti, ki temeljijo tako na
e-gradivih »Komunikacija z glasbo« in »V iskanju zvoka« kot tudi na tesnem sodelovanju v projektu »V iskanju zvoka« med vrtcem Ledina in Srednjo šolo Metlika, ki izobražuje bodoče pomočnike vzgojiteljev. Prispevek izpostavlja vprašanje uporabnosti in smiselnosti novih tehnologij na predšolski stopnji in potrebo po ozaveščanju vseh udeležencev v vzgojno-izobraževalnem procesu vrtca (otroci, starši in vzgojitelji) ter o nujnosti uvajanja sodobnih tehnologij na tej vzgojno-izobraževalni stopnji. Prikazuje tudi pridobljene izkušnje pri otrocih in vzgojitelju v enoletnem obdobju sodelovalnega projekta ter podaja nove smernice za delo v vrtcu, v katerem bi IKT imel velik prispevek k izvedbenemu kurikulu oddelka in vrtca.

Ključne besede: vrtec, e-gradiva, IKT, glasba.
