Abstract

Digital transformation is the process of transforming interactions between actors on a traditional platform to interactions on a digital platform. This is the revolution that takes digitization or data as the foundation for development. This process is continuous and never stops. Digital transformation is a systematic process, so when all political, economic and social fields undergo digital transformation such as e-government, digital economy, digital businesses, digital banking, population, digital health, digital tourism...  education is also in this inevitable trend. The article points out that digital transformation of education and training is a core part of taking advantage of the impact of the global industrial revolution 4.0. and how technology is transforming early childhood education. Why is technology important in early childhood education?
