"The contents of this initiative centered around the new technologies in education, the use of ICT in the home, benefits and risks of social networks and learn from the experiences in the use of ICTs, and are aimed at parents and mothers, teachers, members of the AMPA, students and other groups related to the educational environment, "added Councilman
The theme of this roundtable is motivated by the speed and extent to which new technologies of information and communication affect our society, forcing us to look for strategies in the educational environment to efficiently absorb all its obvious potential and prevent risks .
The gradual introduction of these technological advances at home opens up new responsibilities to parents in the education of their children because the information they provide makes them a powerful tool for learning and research but also in an open door to the dangers of certain social networks or inappropriate content.
