As technology rapidly evolves, navigating the digital landscape with children can feel overwhelming. From understanding the implications of AI to ensuring their safety on social media and the wider internet, it's a whole new world for many parents.
At Techwise, we understand these challenges. That's why we offer tailored digital literacy workshops designed specifically for parents of primary school children in the UK. Our engaging and informative sessions provide parents with the vital knowledge and practical skills to confidently support a child's digital journey.
Through our workshops, parents will gain:
A clear understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI): Demystify AI and learn how it might be influencing children's online experiences, along with practical tips for guiding their understanding.
Confidence in navigating social media: Explore the popular platforms children might encounter, understand their potential risks and benefits, and learn strategies for open communication and setting healthy boundaries.
Essential online safety knowledge: Equip yourself with the latest information on topics such as cyberbullying, online privacy, age-appropriate content, and effective parental controls.
Practical tools and resources: Leave each workshop with actionable strategies and valuable resources you can implement immediately at home.
A supportive community: Connect with other parents, share experiences, and learn from each other in a welcoming and understanding environment.
Investing in your digital literacy is an investment in your child's well-being and safety in the digital era. Our parent workshops are a vital tool for fostering a positive and secure online environment for your primary school child.
From teaching basic computer skills to AI training, we recognise that parents need support developing their own digital skills. It's easy to assume that today's parents are digital natives but many have been left behind as new smartphones, tablets and other technologies have become the norm. We believe that digitally confident parents are more prepared to support their children to navigate and engage safely with the digital world.
We work closely with schools to identify and work with groups of parents who would benefit most from our short 6-8 week (online or in-person) digital skills training course. We tailor the content of each course to best suit each cohort and offer support beyond graduation. Our bespoke training helps parents actively participate in the digital world and helps foster a more secure and connected family environment.
