It’s shocking that some children spend an average of 7 hours each day on entertainment media! Emphasizes the need for parents and adults to try to be role models and put down our own devices at times to make sure we have opportunities to fully engage with others. #week3tech252
A great read for parents, educators or anyone who works with children on some of the potential benefits and risks associated with screen time. Everything in moderation as the saying goes! #week3tech252 https://t.co/BuYPL6jYvN
I am a book aficionado who wonder whether e-books are better for students' learning? They seem to engage children more, but the sound effect and animations can interfere with comprehension and event sequencing in preschoolers #Paediatr Child Health #week3Tech252
@OISEAlumFriends @BlackOutdoors1 Valid arguments. Culture stands in the way as well as racialized marketing however, let us place great emphasis on the wage gap that forces persons of colour to work 3 jobs just to make a living wage with no time to actualize out in the woods. #Week3tech252
@JP_I195 We can only do so much - platforms like GoogleDocs allow for students to share with each other without the teacher knowing, creating the potential opportunity for bullying #week3tech252
How do we protect our students online without crossing the line of being overbearing and overprotective where we end up doing more harm than good? #week3tech252
Crazy to think that in the UK 51% of infants aged 6-11 months use a touch screen daily!! #week3tech252
#week3tech252 Screen time reading: An excellent reading for teachers and parents since it highlights risks and benefits of screen time. Ultimately, while we cannot stop this technological shift in our society, limiting screen time, especially for young children is important.
"TV viewing in the early years can become routine..." ever met someone who can't eat dinner without finding something good to watch? The addiction is real. Let's set boundaries! #week3tech252
We need to be wise with our screen time. As educators and/or parents, monitoring our screen time models self-regulation to our kids! Let's stop opening our phone every time we hear it vibrate/ see it light up and live in the moment! ☀️ #week3tech252
What are the long term consequences of exposing children to screens earlier & earlier in age? Are companies like iLatch promoting less parent-child interaction/healthy relationships? #week3tech252
In 2013, 1/4 of grade 4 students in 🇨🇦had a cellphone. With the ability to download, play, & connect right from your pocket, it's hard to split attention from screen to reality. Teaching to become 'digitally literate' must include knowing when to turn devices OFF #week3tech252
Minimize and mitigate screen time while mindfully maintaining and modeling a healthy use of screens. These are the four main principles in the optimization and support of children’s early media experiences. #week3tech252
Teachers & parents shouldn’t be scared of letting kids explore the online world, instead, they should teach them how to effectively and safely navigate and interact with it. #week3tech252
Although it is vital for children to be stimulated linguistically at a young age, language is experience-dependent and reciprocal. By the age of 3, children in high-income families know more than double the amount of language and words than low-income counterparts #week3tech252
"A recent UK study found...51% of 👶🏼6-11 months-old use a touch screen daily" #shocking😲--"preschoolers learn best from live, direct & dynamic interactions with caring adults" Disconnect: Not only to stimulate a growing mind, but to foster a healthy relationship #week3tech252
Monkey See Monkey Do! 🐒 Dr. Ari Brown says: Be a role model when it comes to shutting down your devices. Don't let you kids/students catch you on your phone, when you've asked for them to shut down theirs! 🤳🏾📵#week3tech252
During my last prac., an officer came to talk about strangers online. When asked who had SC, about 85% raised their hands. It's alarming because students are easily manipulated & can easily be tricked by online predators, and it's our duty to teach them to be safe. #week3tech252
... It is important to learn the fundamentals of school, but it is equally important to learn how to live life, be happy, share, care for others, and ultimately be a good human being. This is something that comes when we are away from tech. 2/2 #week3tech252
I feel as though it's so easy for parents to turn on the iPad and have their kids watch it and "learn". Yeah sure, they'll learn their ABCs, but you want to be a parent. When I'm a father, I would love to dedicate my time with my kids to play & teach them ... 1/2 #week3tech252
