Description
Our children are growing up in an AI-powered world, with artificial intelligence already a constant presence in homes, schools, and even their parents' jobs. They encounter digital technologies long before their first words, making it crucial to equip them with the understanding and skills to leverage AI for their benefit.This course is specifically designed for parents seeking to thoughtfully and sensitively guide their children through the complexities of the AI age. Go beyond just using AI - understand its power and risks to stay ahead.Our practical recommendations are inspired by expert research, leading educational organizations, and child psychologists, seamlessly blended with our deep knowledge of artificial intelligence. You'll gain actionable, understandable, and safe strategies for real-life application, empowering your family in a world increasingly run by algorithms.Course Structure:Each chapter of this course focuses on a specific age group, revealing what's crucial for healthy development, skill-building, and digital resilience - from infancy through the teenage years.1. Infants (0-2 years): Nurturing Healthy FoundationsThis crucial phase is key for brain development, perception, and relationships. We'll explain why it's essential to completely limit screen time and focus on live interaction, touch, voice, and movement. You'll learn the impact of passive video viewing on speech development and attention, and what truly supports healthy growth instead. Our recommendations will show you how to build a genuine foundation for digital literacy.2. Early Childhood (3-5 years): Creativity, Digital Awareness, and Social GrowthIn preschool, children begin to understand connections and form their own questions about the world. This is also when their first interactions with technology occur. We'll explain how to use them meaningfully, creatively, and with defined boundaries. We'll show you how to discuss what's real and what's fictional in the online world, why developing a child's imagination is vital, and how to avoid "digital passivity". We'll discuss why it's far more important at this age to learn to create rather than just passively watch cartoons on a tablet. Parents will receive concrete tips for activities that boost creativity and imaginative thinking.3. Primary School Children (6-8 years): Digital Literacy, Playful Learning, and Foundational SkillsAt this age, children are curious, learning to read, write, and connect ideas. We'll show you how to explain that not everything on the internet is true and how they can verify information. We'll discuss why it's dangerous to let children use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) uncontrollably without your supervision. We'll also explain how to communicate with children about how technologies work and their limitations. In this phase, we begin to build critical thinking in children, which will protect them throughout their lives.Pre-Teens (9-12 years): What They See, Perceive, and Believe in the AI WorldChildren at this age use technology daily: in school, for homework, and in their free time for entertainment. This chapter focuses on the active and responsible use of AI tools, as well as protection against manipulation, disinformation, and loss of privacy. We'll explain how to describe to them how AI works, how it chooses what to show them, and why it's important not to perceive everything as "truth". Parents will learn how to encourage critical evaluation of information, identity protection, and conscious decision-making. At this age, children need guidance: we shouldn't forbid everything, but rather set healthy boundaries together.4. Teenagers (13-18 years): Mental Health, AI-Based Decisions, and Their FutureTeenagers are digital experts. However, that doesn't mean they understand all the risks. This chapter covers ethics, responsibility, identity, and deepfake technologies. We'll discuss the risks of "artificial popularity", the impact of AI on mental health, but also the positive possibilities of using technology. We'll teach you how to have conversations with teenagers about boundaries, responsibility, and the impact of their own online behavior. This age is ideal for building a personal digital identity and a conscious attitude toward AI.
