Each lesson is accompanied by a video with colorful characters who, using their own example, talk about interaction with the digital environment.
“Digital educational program is not just teaching computer literacy, it is forming the foundations of digital culture, which is becoming an integral part of modern life. Classes develop communication skills, teach critical thinking and form responsible behavior in the online environment. Digital technologies have a direct impact on the process of socialization of a child and therefore it is important to develop such skills from an early age,” says Petr Polozhevets, Executive Director of the “Investment in the Future” Charitable Foundation.
