Parent and Family Digital Learning Guide
Office of Educational Technology, US Department of Education
Technology, when used appropriately, can empower learning, engage and motivate students, and help make learning interactive. Students can benefit from educational technology because it can personalize instruction and adapt to their strengths and weaknesses. Today's digital tools and resources support and enhance learning at home and in the classroom. In some cases, a student's engagement with educational technology can help them develop communications and technical skills for their futures. Digital tools (such as devices, apps, and platforms) can enable multiple places for children to learn, help parents and their children set clear and easy to understand learning goals, and track progress. This guide provides resources to help parents fulfill the responsibility of their child's online learning. While having multiple options for access, devices, internet connectivity, and digital tools is the ideal, it is not the reality for everyone. This guide focuses on empowering parents with information and resources to improve their child's opportunity for successful and safe digital learning.
