Grade 1 Parents Get Together

Mrs. Pauline Fermin, Managing Director of Acumen Strategic Consulting, was the guest speaker at the Grade One Parents Get Together wherein she shared her research findings about the digital generation of which the Grade One students belong to.

Mrs. Fermin presented the profile of a typical young digital citizen. She also provided the parents a list of online games and sites as well as patterns of usage for them to monitor. She reassured them that although technology is here to stay, so is their authority as parents. Finally, she offered practical guidelines and tips as to how to develop the necessary virtues needed by their children to harness the benefits and avoid the pitfalls of technology.
