Online Safety Tips for Young Learners

Welcome to Parpus Learning Centre, a place for young minds to learn and grow in a safe and secure online environment. While we strive to provide a safe and educational platform, it's important for young learners and their parents to be aware of online safety practices. Here are some tips to help you make the most of your online learning experience while staying safe:

1. Protect Your Personal Information

• Never share personal information like your full name, address, phone number, school name, or any financial information online. Keep your identity and location private.

2. Choose Strong Passwords

• Create a strong password for your account, using a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using easily guessable information like birthdays or names.

3. Stay Anonymously Safe

• Use a username or screen name that does not reveal your real name. Protect your online identity to stay safe.

4. Share with Caution

• Think twice before sharing any personal information or photos. If you're unsure, ask your parent or guardian for guidance.

5. Respect Others

• Be kind, respectful, and considerate to other users. Cyberbullying and mean behavior are not acceptable. If you encounter any negative comments or behavior, report it to your teacher or guardian.

6. Be Cautious of Strangers

• Avoid making friends with people you don't know in real life. If someone you don't know wants to connect, talk to your parent or guardian first.

7. Secure Your Device

• Keep your computer, tablet, or phone secure by using antivirus software and regularly updating your operating system.

8. Avoid Downloading Unknown Files

• Don't download files or click on links from unknown sources, as they could contain harmful viruses or malware.

9. Ask for Permission

• Always ask for permission from your parent or guardian before installing or downloading any apps, programs, or games.

10. Stay Informed

• Learn about online safety, privacy settings, and how to use the reporting and blocking features on our platform.

11. Communicate Openly

• If you ever feel uncomfortable, worried, or come across something that doesn't feel right, talk to your parent, guardian, or teacher. They are there to help and guide you.

12. Use Safe Learning Resources

• Stick to approved and safe educational websites, and let your parent or guardian know if you come across any content that seems inappropriate.

13. Set Boundaries

• Work with your parent or guardian to set appropriate limits on your screen time and online activities.

14. Ask Questions

• If you're unsure about anything online, don't hesitate to ask your teacher, parent, or guardian. They can help you understand and stay safe.

15. Stay Engaged with Your Learning

• Online safety is essential, but so is your education. Stay engaged and participate actively in your online courses.
