Attention Home Schoolers: Announcing “Educational Web 2.0 and Internet Safety”
Announcing:Educational Web 2.0 and Internet Safety
The Internet has become an amazing place. It’s a huge world of information, sitting at your fingertips. And it has an amazing educational potential for both children and adults alike. At the same time, many parents fear that their children may become more adept at using the Internet than they are. This course aims to help prevent that, by introducing parents and children to educational tools on the Internet together, and by helping both parents and children to learn ethical and safe Internet behavior.
Rather than blocking our children from the Internet,
let’s teach them how to use it responsibly!
