Guide to the safe and constructive use of digital technology and the Internet

We present you the publication "Children in the Digital Age". The publication can be very useful for all professionals working in education, but also for all who are involved in working with children and participating in their education, including parents and caregivers. The publication was designed to contribute to the safe and constructive use of digital devices and the Internet in preschool and younger school children.

In the publication you can find an overview of the latest theoretical knowledge and information as well as helpful links that you can access, with all the latest theoretical knowledge related to the use of digital technologies and the Internet by children. Some links will also refer you to very useful and interesting workshops that can be used in working with parents and their children.

The publication was created within the project "Safe Internet for the whole family", launched by UNICEF and Telenor, and implemented by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development and Uzice Child Rights Centre (UCRC).
