Digital Intelligence is all around us. Today's children spend more time in front of a screen than ever before. The widespread use of gadgets has become ingrained in the lives of our society's youth.
As a result, children must understand digital skills for their learning and safety:
Problem-Solving
Problem-solving entails making decisions, which is an important skill not only for academic success but also for success in life.
In a variety of ways, technology enhances problem-solving. It allows you to identify problems more quickly and easily, as well as analyze a complex problem more thoroughly.
To succeed in today's competitive world, your child will need to be able to think critically, which means being able to observe, analyze, and come up with creative solutions to complex problems.
Digital literacy
Teach your child how to evaluate information, contacts, and valuable content on the internet, as well as computational thinking abilities.
It also covers the dangers of spreading false information and the dangers of interacting with strangers on the internet.
Digital safety
Teach your child that sharing personal information online is never a good idea. Don't reply to strangers' emails, texts, or messages.
Do not upload or share photos on the internet. Don't open attachments, click links, or accept gifts from people you don't know.
These will assist in the management of online risks (such as cyberbullying, grooming, and radicalization) as well as problematic content (e.g. violence and obscenity).
Digital emotional intelligence
Teach your child to be compassionate and to form positive online relationships.
It involves being willing to lend a helping hand to someone in need, being open with parents, teachers, and friends about one's online presence, and not being judgmental in the online world.
Digital security
Teach your child how to recognize and handle cyber threats such as hacking, malware, and scams, as well as how to seek help from elders if things get out of hand.
The ability to detect cyber threats, understand best practices and use appropriate data security tools.
