Abstract

Digitalni su mediji postali sastavni dio čovjekova života. Uza sve prednosti i nedostatke koje pružaju, ovaj se rad usmjerava na njihovu dostupnost i uporabu u aktivnostima s djecom predškolske dobi. Cilj je ovoga rada utvrditi dostupnost digitalnih medija u predškolskim ustanovama Grada Osijeka te koriste li odgojitelji digitalne medije pri provođenju aktivnosti s djecom predškolske dobi. Istraživanje je provedeno online anketnim upitnikom s 40 odgojitelja predškolske dobi, zaposlenih u dječjim vrtićima Grada Osijeka. Pretpostavka je ovoga istraživanja bila da su dječji vrtići materijalno opremljeni za provođenje aktivnosti s djecom uporabom digitalnih medija te da odgojitelji imaju pozitivne stavove o njihovoj uporabi, da ih rabe u svome radu s djecom te da su svjesni prednosti i nedostataka digitalnih medija. Rezultati pokazuju kako na razini dječjega vrtića odgojitelji nemaju uvjete za provedbu aktivnosti uporabom digitalnih medija, ali da ih ipak rabe u manjoj mjeri, ovisno o tome posjeduju li privatno neke uređaje koje mogu iskoristiti u radu s djecom. Iako digitalni mediji nisu u velikoj mjeri primijenjeni u praksi odgojitelja, ispitani odgojitelji imaju pozitivne stavove o uporabi digitalnih medija te pokazuju osviještenost o njihovim prednostima i nedostatcima.

Abstract (english)

Digital media form an integral part of the day in people's lives. With all the advantages and disadvantages they provide, this paper focuses on their availability and use in activities with preschool children. The aim of this paper is to determine the availability of digital media in preschool institutions of the City of Osijek and wheter preschool teachers use digital media in activities with preschool children. The research was conducted using an online questionnaire with 40 preschool teachers employed in kindergartens in the City of Osijek. The premise of this research was that kindergartens have all neccessary working conditions to perform activities using digital media, and that preschool teachers positively value the use of digital media and show an awarness of its advantages and disadvantages. The results of the research have demonstrated that at the institution level, preschool teachers do not have the contidions to implement activities using digital media, but that they still use them to a lesser extent, depending on whether they privately own some devices that they can use in activities with children. Although digital media have not been implemented to a large extent in the practice of preschool teachers, the examined preschool teachers positively value the use of digital media and show awareness of its advantages and disadvantages.
