As a parent or guardian, you know what feels right for your family and how your children learn best. NCSTA helps parents navigate new technologies, gadgets, and services in an ever-changing online world. This course will teach parents how to protect their children from cyberbullying, avoid hiring the wrong babysitter, monitor what their kids are doing online, and much more.
Parent Security continuously updates this course by working with safety experts, cybersecurity professionals, parents, and educators to stay informed about the new threats our children face.
While children have many opportunities to socialize online, it also comes with both benefits and risks. Parents, guardians, and other trusted adults can help reduce the risks children face every day when using technology.
In many cases, children today are more knowledgeable about technology than their parents, especially when it comes to using digital devices, apps, and social media. This is largely because children grow up immersed in technology, making it a natural part of their daily lives. They often learn quickly and are more willing to explore new gadgets and platforms.
However, while children may be adept at using technology, they often lack the understanding of the potential risks and consequences associated with it. This is where parents play a crucial role. Even if they aren't as tech-savvy as their children, parents can provide guidance on safe and responsible technology use.
It's a collaborative effort—children bring their technical skills, and parents contribute their experience, wisdom, and understanding of safety. Together, they can navigate the digital world more effectively.
