TASIS Portugal, a leading American international school, recently held a webinar for their parent community titled ‘Behind their screens: What teens are facing (and adults are missing). The webinar was organised by the school’s Parent Education Committee and promoted via the newly launched TASIS Portugal online community, with nearly 160 parents signing up via this platform.
The virtual talk and Q&A session aimed to help parents understand the challenges and opportunities of the digital world for teens. A key message was that contrary to many adults’ assumptions, teens are not simply addicted to their screens, they are just trying to navigate a networked world. The webinar was well-received and provided valuable insights into digital literacy and what parents can do to support their children in an online world. For those who were unable to attend the live webinar, the recording was made available on their online community for parents to watch on-demand.
The new TASIS Portugal online community is designed to provide parents with a platform to engage with the school and connect with other parents - and this webinar is just one example of the many opportunities the portal provides for parents to stay informed and connected with the school community. TASIS Portugal continues to lead the way in providing innovative solutions for modern-day parenting, and the new parent community is a testament to the school’s commitment to supporting TASIS families.
