Families are offered tools and resources to accompany children and young people in the digital environment. And every quarter a job proposal to be developed in the family will be published.
Fr Fernando García, coordinator of the Schools of the SSM Province, explains: "With the end of this first quarter of courses, the 'Enredados' campaign has come to light. It is an initiative that we coordinated within the pedagogical area of our Province to help the parents of our students in the difficult task of accompanying and educating their children in a digital environment. The 'Enredados' project was born to get closer to families, to count on them and to provide them with reflections and materials that help them communicate with their children."
The first theme proposed concerned privacy and the next one, in March, will focus on healthy habits in the use of the internet and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), trying to avoid addictions; the course will end with an interesting proposal for reflection on "personal relationship-virtual relationship."
"Enredados" offers a series of tools to talk about these topics at home with the children, as well as informing them about fundamental aspects of the use of ICT and providing support to help families build their children's personalities in a digitalized world.
For this reason, the Salesian pedagogical team proposes work based on dialogue, in search of the opportune moment, and with an invitation to reflect together, as adults are also users of the network and may be vulnerable themselves and not enjoy a safe digital environment.
The materials available on the innovation portal: innovacion.salesianos.es/enredados/ offer families guidelines for dealing with the topic with their children.
The Safer Internet Day is an event promoted by the INSAFE / INHOPE network, with the support of the European Commission, and is addressed to everyone with an invitation to use technology in a responsible, respectful, critical and creative way.
With the aim of underlining the positive character of the Internet, the slogan of this 2020 was: "A better Internet starts with you: together we learn cyber security"; a motto that invites you to join the global movement, to participate and to take advantage of the best of the Internet to bring people together.
