Not my experience, at least not here in Norway โ in fact, there's been a pretty big backlash against the digitalization of childhood in schools and kindergartens, so I'd be very surprised if there's any increasing pressure on us to use computers at all with the children. A colleague of mine put on some movies a handful of times in December, and even that caused some concerned messages from parents.
At least part of the world isn't racing to the bottom
Unfortunately the countries with high population and public education being negligible, have really low pay.
I heard Norway and Sweden kindergarten teachers get 120,000 USD ! that sounds great.
hehe, I wish, but no, the starting salary is more like $55 000, increasing to about $65 000 as you get more experience.
