S.M.A.R.T. (Smart Media and Responsible Technology) Parent Presentation

*OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

With the constant surge of new information, programs and apps, the world is a click or text away. But with new advances come new dangers and concerns. Parents need to be aware of the technology their children use and the trouble that can follow if safety rules are not in place.
Most apps can be used in fun, positive ways – but not all programs are appropriate for all ages. This program shows parents the positives and potential pitfalls of today’s most popular programs.

Topics covered range from the following:

Social Networking: Concerns parents should have
Cyberbullying: How to talk to your children about getting involved
Texting and Sexting
Popular/Trending Apps
Picture Sharing
Privacy Settings: Understanding the importance
Digital Footprints: Positive and negative impacts
Apps/programs that help parents monitor their families
Parental controls and available resources
