Early Childhood Education Software Survey
Studying the use of Software for Family Engagement, Documentation, and Program Management in Child Care, Head Start, Preschool, and PreK settings
We wondered about software use by the adults who operate early childhood programs. So, we asked them about their experiences!
In September, 2019, as a independent voices in early childhood education, Engagement Strategies and Modern Metrics Barn launched a survey about early childhood program selection and use in the early childhood education industry. This study specifically explored administrators and teachers use (and non-use) of program management, family engagement, and documentation software. In addition to collecting satisfaction levels on elements of technical support, customer service, training, various features, and other elements of more than 30 products, we surveyed users about there selection processes, intentions about using these systems. The survey is now closed, and the results from more than 2,800 responses on 40 factors have been analyzed in our initial findings.
The results of this study will be used to inform early childhood professionals about trends, use cases, and processes, as well as provide developers and distributors with valuable information about the state of the industry. The first roll out of initial findings will be presented in a conference presentation at the NAEYC Annual Conference and Expo in Nashville, TN on November 22, 2019.
