Screen Smart Schools for the win
“If we as teachers had to keep up-to-date with the rapid changes in technology we would never have time to teach our classes.”
I recently sat in a staff room where the sentiment:
Digital life skills are imperative to the successful development of children in the digital age, was echoed by all.
Yet, adding this to the enormous workload teachers already face will lead to failure on both parts. This is where Screen Smarts makes a difference.
At Screen Smarts we believe in a better digital landscape for all. We provide a service that empowers children, teens & parents to make responsible choices in digital spaces.
HOW WE HELP SCHOOLS:
We hope that our efforts today will make cyberspace a better place for the netizens of tomorrow.
This year we have decided to reward schools for their loyalty and commitment to their learners.
SCREEN SMART SCHOOLS GET DISCOUNT
Screen Smarts would like to propose a 3-year partnership with your school. Screen Smarts will take care of the digital landscape at your school on an annual basis. Screen Smarts schools will be rewarded with an increasing annual discount based on a 3-year commitment.
The discount is a as follows:
- Year 1: 15% Off Screen Smarts full rate
- Year 2: 25% Off Screen Smarts full rate
- Year 3: 35% Off Screen Smarts full rate
But this is not the only benefit of becoming a Screen Smart School.
WHY YOUR SCHOOL SHOULD BECOME SCREEN SMART
- Stay up-to-date: Keeping up-to-date with the rate at which social media & online games evolve, as well as, the trends children subscribe to, is a full-time job. Most educators do not have time for this. Our curriculum is constantly updated to remain accurate.
- A fresh perspective: Children respond well to a fresh perspective. A fresh face evokes more response than a face they see every day.
- Interactive: Our workshops are designed to keep a child’s attention with interactive games and fun analogies.
- Their questions answered: Having a digital life skills expert in the room allows questions to be answered accurately and on-the-spot.
- Free teacher’s workshops: Screen Smart Schools will receive a 20 minute teacher’s workshop annually, empowering them on topics such as online predators, screen time, gaming disorder, social media depression etc.
- A healthier school environment: Issues that crop up in digital spaces have a way of affecting the social climate at school. Investing in your digital landscape means that you are also investing in the overall “gees” of the school.
- Monthly Blog: Screen Smart Schools will receive our monthly blog in which we share insights into the common issues children face and our practical solutions to solve these problems.
- Expert advice: An expert at your beck and call should digital dilemma strike.
“Teaching digital citizenship equips students with the knowledge, skills, and resources to succeed as lifelong learners, helping them to learn to engage within a digital environment with responsibility and confidence.”
-James Hough, Principal, Kingswood College
We would like to invite your school to become a Screen Smart School!
If you want to leave the digital landscape a better place for the netizens of tomorrow, we’d love to hear from you.
