KEEP STUDENTS SAFE AND SECURE ONLINE

In today’s digital world, technology is playing a vital role in raising children and, so in this digital era, the main concern arises about Internet Safety. With multiple cases emerging of teachers getting harassed through third-party sources entering the web classroom or various illegitimate links getting circulated, parents and teachers need to be more cautious while working.

 Follow the below tips to keep your child protected –

 

1.      Discuss with children

 

Children are assessing tech-savvy gadgets at a very young age so, parents and teachers should start teaching them about malware, viruses, and dangerous websites. Start having a conversation with them rather than giving them lectures.

 

2.      Know which devices are accessible by children

 

Children have access to various devices either at home, school, or friend’s place. So, start supervising where they go online and to whom they talk.

 

3.      Tell children not to talk to strangers and not to meet them

 

Remind children that not all people they meet online are genuine. Emphasize that they should not disclose their identity to an unknown person without your consent and should not physically meet any person.

 

4.    Create internet time family time

 

Making browsing a family thing will help to know more about children’s interest, their mindset, and guide them to websites where they can find stuff relating to their age.

 

5.    Watch out for changes in children’s behavior

 

Parents and teachers should keep an eye on the changes in the behavior and personality of children.

 

6.    Keep a track on children’s browsing history and set rules

 

Parents should look at the history tabs of their children and make rules for screen time. Time should be set beyond which they won’t be allowed to access the device.
