First of all, parents should be aware of the diversity of children's knowledge acquisition in the information age. Computers have entered many families, and the proportion of families owning computers is getting higher and higher. Children can get a lot of the latest and most valuable information through the internet and other channels, and the transmission of information transcends the limitations of geography and time. Therefore, "in the face of information, adults and children have more equal opportunities to acquire knowledge."
Secondly, parents should be familiar with the requirements of the information society for their children's learning. The information society we are entering is also a learning society. Compared with learning in traditional society, four points in modern learning are particularly important: first, how to select, store and obtain information quickly, fully and effectively. The second is how to break the routine and regroup, and use it to generate new ideas. The third is how to use information to solve problems. Fourth, pay attention to the laws, regulations and ethics that children should abide by in the information society. These are the "information literacy" adapted to the information learning era and the basic requirements for roaming the information ocean.
Thirdly, parents should grow up with their children and have the courage to "learn from their children". Experts believe that family learning in the information age is facing three changes: that is, parents are changing from "authority of knowledge" and "authority of education" to joint learning and mutual learning between parents and children, from "closed-door learning environment" to "distance learning and open learning environment", from parents "condescending and pretending to be educators" to "taking children as teachers and learning from children". This is the inevitable requirement of the information age and the inevitable result of the mutual influence of educational environment.
