Parents had reasons to be alarmed about school technology. They had been warned that these abuses could influence their children’s academic progress, motivation, communication, creativity, critical thinking, job preparedness, and even their safety at school. They had been told that it was linked to controversial instruction, faulty testing, inadequate textbooks, and invasive spyware. Upset by these claims, the parents had numerous questions. This book identifies their questions, the groups to which they directed them, the answers they elicited, and the educational changes they prompted.

Parenting for the Digital Generation provides a practical handbook for parents, grandparents, teachers, and counselors who want to understand both the opportunities and the threats that exist for the generation of digital natives who are more familiar with a smartphone than they are with a paper book. This book provides straightforward, jargon-free information regarding the online environment and the experience in which children and young adults engage both inside and outside the classroom. The digital environment creates many challenges, some of which are largely the same as parents faced before the Internet, but others which are entirely new. Many children struggle to connect, and they underperform in the absence of the social and emotional support of a healthy learning environment. Parents must also help their children navigate a complex and occasionally dangerous online world. This book provides a step-by-step guide for parents seeking to raise happy, mature, creative, and well-adjusted children. The guide provides clear explanations of the keys to navigating as a parent in the online environment while providing practical strategies that do not look for dangers where there are only remote threats.

Research has shown that increased parental involvement enhances student achievement. Throughout the educational system, efforts have been made to involve parents in various activities, to keep parents informed of student progress and to enlist parents as partners in the education of their children. Although knowledge has certainly informed the practice, many children are not receiving the support they need to succeed and many parents and teachers still do not know what to do. Some parents want to be involved but do not have the time to be actively involved while still others have neither the skills nor the language. Further, teachers need support in their efforts to involve parents. Relatively little has been done through the use of technology, particularly telecommunications. This case study research documents the implementation of a technologically innovative web-based school program, Homeworks.net , to keep parents in an urban middle class community informed of student activities, projects, progress and problems. Six teachers and 28 parents (approximately 20%) of fourth and fifth graders in a NYC public school participated in the study. After installation and training, a series of interviews were conducted with parents, teachers, the principal and the software representative. These and the documented communications (email and web-based calendar) between home and school were subsequently analyzed to develop a holistic picture of parent/teacher communications. The findings showed that although parents and teachers believe that person-to-person and telephone communications were better, they rated email correspondence more favorably than notes sent home through students. Parents expressed the need for better and speedier information that could be delivered by a robust web-based class calendar which provides information about class work, homework, projects and events. The data collected demonstrates the diversity of parental viewpoints, and suggests that many forms of intervention are needed to encourage parent involvement in schools. Faulty technology and internet connectivity impeded the study and point to the need for a well-planned, technologically-supported infrastructure. Teachers also need professional development to support the use of newer technologies. Recommendations for further research and future web-based implementations are discussed.

"The purpose of this project was to discover how the use technology can facilitate and promote parental involvement in a low income school and how to make the use of that technology and other education opportunities more accessible to parents in our area. The theoretical framework of this research project was constructivist based on discovery learning, and all the research was parent driven. It also considers social justice in education and is community of practice based. The study examines: advantages of technology uses for educational purposes; facilitating Technology access to promote parental involvement and the role of schools in promoting access to technology and training opportunities for parents. The data collection methods were parent surveys, questionnaires, focus group interviews, film observations, hands on trainings and written suggestions of how to implement a more successful approach related to promoting parent involvement. All of my findings assured me that schools have a pivotal role in promoting parental involvement and increase student academic achievement and success."--author's abstract.

"In the decades it takes to bring up a child, parents face challenges that are both helped and hindered by the fact that they are living through a period of unprecedented digital innovation. Drawing on extensive research with diverse parents, this book reveals how digital technologies give personal and political parenting struggles a distinctive character, as parents determine how to forge new territory with little precedent, or support. The book reveals the pincer movement of parenting in late modernity. Parents are both more burdened with responsibilities and charged with respecting the agency of their child-leaving much to negotiate in today's "democratic" families. The book charts how parents now often enact authority and values through digital technologies-as "screen time," games, or social media become ways of both being together and setting boundaries. The authors show how digital technologies introduce both valued opportunities and new sources of risk. To light their way, parents comb through the hazy memories of their own childhoods and look toward varied imagined futures. This results in deeply diverse parenting in the present, as parents move between embracing, resisting, or balancing the role of technology in their own and their children's lives. This book moves beyond the panicky headlines to offer a deeply researched exploration of what it means to parent in a period of significant social and technological change. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative research in the United Kingdom, the book offers conclusions and insights relevant to parents, policymakers, educators, and researchers everywhere"--

Kids deserve a better digital future. Help them create it. When it comes to raising children in a digital world, every parent feels underprepared and overwhelmed. We worry that our children will become addicted to online games, be victims of cyberbullying, or get lost down the rabbit hole of social media. We warn them about all the things they shouldn't do online, but we don't do nearly enough to teach them the skills of digital well-being. It's time to start a new conversation. In Digital for Good, EdTech expert Richard Culatta argues that technology can be a powerful tool for learning, solving humanity's toughest problems, and bringing us closer together. He offers a refreshingly positive framework for preparing kids to be successful in a digital world—one that encourages them to use technology proactively and productively—by outlining five qualities every young person should develop in order to become a thriving, contributing digital citizen: Be balanced: understand when and how much tech use is healthy Stay informed: discern between true and false information Be inclusive: treat others with respect and kindness online Be engaged: use tech to strengthen family relationships and community connections Stay alert: exercise caution and create safe digital spaces for others This practical guide will help parents and children discover the path to becoming effective digital citizens, all while making our online world a better place.
