Empowering Parents
Tonight I'm conducting a TechNight Workshop for parents which will also be podcasted (my first ever...go Amy). The goal of tonight is to provide parents with a toolkit that will (hopefully) help them at home and in their professional lives.
Recently, the OnlineAir has been polluted with all of the Perverts, Predators and Pariahs when it comes to our kids. We can't let the "bad guys" win.
On another note, we, as Technology Directors need to reach out to the parent community so they too can become Digital Guides to their kids. If we don't, who will? Most parents don't learn this stuff at the workplace. Think about it. How would they know about search engines, information literacy, blogs? etc...
