The era of technology 4.0 will support many jobs and learning of young children, so parents should consider and apply technology in educating children more effectively.
Equipped with technology knowledge
Parents can refer to and equip themselves with basic technology knowledge to make it easier to teach their children. Registering to participate in online courses, reading books or referring to guidance documents will help parents feel more confident in supporting their children's education.
In addition, experience and explore technology with your children, which is also a way to create cohesion and create excitement and curiosity for children's learning.
Establishing rules for technology use
Setting rules about time and technology content will help children form user habits. Parents should discuss and agree with their children about the time of use as well as what content they are allowed to access to view or learn. This will help children better understand whether or not to use technology.
Monitoring and accompanying children
Parents should be the ones to supervise and accompany their children when using technology in play or study. Choose suitable programs from studying and playing with your children to help parents better understand their children's interests and interests to create opportunities to help them develop their talents.
Education on cybersecurity
Parents need to especially equip their children with knowledge about cybersecurity, for example, not sharing personal information, being vigilant against fake nicks and recognizing inappropriate content. Discussing potential risks on social media also helps children become more or less self-defense and know how to use technology safely.
Set an example in using technology
Parents should be responsible for setting an example for their children in using technology. Limiting equipment use time and spending time participating in family activities will help children realize the value of balance in life. This is also a way to help children develop well both physically and psychologically.
