LECTURE

Varen svet družbenih omrežij za otroke in mladostnike

Miha Kramli

No civilisation until now has ever tampered with the cradle. Ours has. Over half of all people spend their free time in the virtual world, and it is a civilisational problem. There is a spreading pattern (among adults and young people alike) of looking to the virtual world for answers to our problems. The very things we lack in the real world, we seek in the virtual world. And many people today share the view that the virtual is more real than reality.

Digitalno izobraževanje v šoli je edinstveno po svoji sposobnosti, da dijakom ponudi individualno izkušnjo obenem pa vzpostavi družbeno držo, saj vsi delijo isto znanje in dosegajo cilje skupaj.
