Webinar: “Safe Zone: Children and Online Safety“
Aug 28, 2024 12:00 PM
Presented by Children and Screens
On August 28th, Sherri was an expert panelist for the Children and Screens #AskTheExpert webinar. The webinar provided valuable parenting tips to help families safely navigate the digital world that children engage with today. Sherri’s presentation focused on the role of media literacy in helping children navigate their online activities.
Each hour children spend online increases their exposure to safety and privacy risks. Yet for most families, exhaustively monitoring their child’s internet activity several hours a day is an unattainable goal. What can parents and caregivers do to equip youth with the skills and protections needed to keep themselves safe online? What do adults and youth alike need to know about popular platforms and recent technological developments that affect child safety? Join Children and Screens for the first #AskTheExperts webinar of the fall season “Children Online: Safety First” on Wednesday, August 28 at 12pm ET to gain insights from internet safety experts and advocates on the vulnerabilities and risks children face online, as well as the essential tips and skills needed to safely navigate digital life today.
