One Tablet Per Child Project (OTPC) – Internet Filtering

Dear Parents

OTPC tablets provide an educational environment through which the student can access content provided by the teacher. Since the closing of schools, OTPC tablet usage has drastically increased. We are informed of great practices including tablet usage for regular communication and sharing of learning material. To enhance such usage during this period and to facilitate the work of teachers, MEDE will be opening Internet filtering on OTPC tablets as from Monday 30th March at 8am.
May we remind all parents that as for any other digital devices, parents should be aware of what their children see and hear on the Internet, who they meet, and what they share about themselves. It is important that you talk with your kids and keep an eye on their activities.

Għeżież Ġenituri

It-tabletstal-proġett OTPC jipprovdu ambjent edukattiv li permezz tiegħu l-istudent jista’ jkollu aċċess għal-kontenut ipprovdut mill-għalliem. Minn meta ingħalqu l-iskejjel, l-użu ta’ l-OTPC tablets żdied drastikament. Aħna infurmati dwar ħafna prattiċi tajba inkluż l-użu ta’ tablets
għall-komunikazzjoni regolari u tqassim ta’ materjal tat-tagħlim. Biex jitjieb l-użu ta’ dan it-tipgħal dan il-perjodu u sabiex niffaċilitaw ix-xogħol tal-għalliema, l-MEDE se tiftaħ il-filtraġġ tal-Internet fuq l-OTPC tablets mit-Tnejn 30 ta’ Marzu fit-8am.
Nixtiequ nfakkru lill-ġenituri kollha li bħal kull apparat diġitali ieħor, il-ġenituri għandhom ikunu konxji ta’ dak li jaraw it-tfal tagħhom u jisimgħu fuq l-internet, dawk li jiltaqgħu magħhom, u x’dettalji dwarhom jaqsmu fuq l-internet. Huwa importanti li l-ġenituri jitkellmu ma’ wliedhom u jżommu għajnejhom fuq l-attivitajiet tagħhom.
