The document discusses a proposed software solution to help guide children's safe computer usage. The software would give timed breaks, adjust screen brightness, and cue children if sitting too close, in order to encourage eye health while using computers. It aims to help parents who need to get work done by occupying children safely on the computer without constant monitoring. However, some criticisms are that it requires attaching a camera, is not scientifically proven, and could reduce socialization between parents and children.

Technology in learning
1. Technology in learning is advancing and will continue to adapt to new technologies like social media, mobile learning, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence.
2. Learners will expect to learn anywhere, anytime through their mobile devices and will have higher expectations of technology-enabled learning experiences.
3. Learning designers and developers will need to create shorter, scenario-based, hands-on content tailored for multiple devices and learning management systems will need to operate invisibly across platforms.
Computer vision syndrome
This document discusses computer vision syndrome (CVS), also known as digital eye strain. It defines CVS as eye and vision problems caused by prolonged use of digital screens. Key points include:
1. CVS affects 50-90% of computer users and causes symptoms like eye strain, headaches, blurred vision and fatigue.
2. Prolonged focusing on screens, decreased blinking rates, and improper ergonomics can lead to dry eyes and temporary myopia.
3. Prevention focuses on regular eye exams, proper ergonomics, eye exercises like the 20-20-20 rule, use of eye drops, and taking effective breaks when working.
4. Children are also at risk and parents should

Are you taking care of your eyes if you are constantly on laptop or phones
The document provides tips for taking care of your eyes when using laptops and phones extensively:
1) Follow the 20-20-20 rule - take a 20 second break to look at something 20 feet away every 20 minutes of screen time. This relieves eye strain.
2) Keep screen brightness at a comfortable level that matches the ambient lighting to reduce eye fatigue.
3) Blink often when using screens, as blinking decreases with screen use and keeps eyes moist.
4) Wear anti-glare glasses to block blue light and reduce eye strain from screens.
How to Prevent Your Kids Against Blue Light?
We are surrounded by blue light, no matter where we go. As a matter of fact, this is the light that makes the sky appear blue. Well, the same light is emitted by the screens of mobile phones and tablets when your kid plays his favorite games.

Time management by kuldeep bubane
This document discusses time management strategies. It recommends prioritizing tasks based on their urgency and importance, with urgent and important tasks in quadrant I. Tasks should be divided between important "green zone" activities and less important "red zone" activities, keeping some buffer time for unexpected red zone tasks. An effective strategy is to write out a to-do list each day to plan tasks in advance. Managing tasks, setting priorities, and using a pen and paper system can help gain an extra four hours in the day that can be used for meaningful activities.

Tech Savvy Parenting
The iPad can be an effective learning tool for students due to its portability, touch screen, battery life, and educational apps. However, it also allows 24/7 internet access, so families need to set clear rules for appropriate use. Some strategies include only allowing homework in common areas where use can be monitored, setting time limits, and shutting off wifi during certain hours. The document also provides tips for checking what students are doing on their iPads, like asking them to flip the screen or double clicking the home button. Schools will offer learning opportunities for students and parents on topics like digital citizenship and safe technology use.
Young children and screen time
The document discusses the debate around appropriate screen time for young children. It examines benefits such as learning social skills through coviewing with adults, but also risks like increased obesity, behavior issues, and sleep problems. One study found that children ages 6 months to 2 years who used handheld screens for more than 30 minutes daily faced a 49% increased risk of speech delays. While technology can enhance learning if used moderately, excessive screen time may stunt cognitive development in young children by replacing important environmental stimuli. The conclusion is that caregivers should limit screen time and spend more time directly interacting with children.
Product Management Internship Challenge-Prince mainwal.pptx
This document outlines a proposed app called "Parentry" that aims to reduce kids' screen time in a gamified way by enabling parents to monitor their kids' device usage. The app would allow parents to track how much time their kids spend on different apps, set limits, and provide rewards to motivate kids to achieve usage goals. It describes the target users as school-going kids aged 10-16 and their parents. Wireframes show how parents could view reports on their kids' app usage and set limits, while kids see goals and earn rewards for staying within limits. Success would be measured by decreased time in unnecessary apps, increased time in useful apps, rewards earned per day, and frequency of parents checking status reports.

TECH IN THE BEDROOM IS AN ABSOLUTE NO FOR KIDS, EXPERTS SAY
A new study found that access to screens like TVs and mobile devices in the bedroom negatively impacts children's sleep, cutting their sleep by up to 37 minutes. The presence of screens disrupts melatonin production and the body's natural sleep-wake cycle. Experts recommend making children's bedrooms "no-tech zones" and establishing a consistent bedtime routine without screens to help children wind down and get the sleep they need for healthy development. The document provides several tips for parents to limit technology use before bed and set a positive example with their own device usage.

Intervention of Gadgets in Your Child's Life
Gadgets play an important role in modern life but their introduction to children at an early age may have negative effects on development. TV exposure in children under two can weaken motor skills and lead to obesity from unhealthy snacking habits. Smartphones close to the face can cause vision issues and their addicting games can distract from the real world. MP3 players listened to loudly have increased noise-induced hearing loss in teens. Overall, early gadget exposure provides few benefits and can physically, mentally, and socially hinder a child's development which requires real-world interaction rather than screens.

Editor's Notes
- Longest usage time: 10 hrs Shortest usage time: 4 hrs after being threatened Playing games
- Explanation on the context of the problem
- Usually because of gaming or school work.
- Leading increasingly to eye fatigue. Which increases risk for myopia But it is not proven that eye fatigue leads to myopia. it simply increases the risk of getting myopia.. Aim of solution: Prevent eye fatigue due to long use and instill good reading/using habits
- Reason for age range: It is easier to cultivate habits when children are young Eye problems usually start from young They assume that what they see and how they see is normal — even if their vision is problematic. That's why it is important for parents to monitor the time and usage habit of a child while he/she spends working at a computer. Parents often find it difficult to enforce time limits because their kids will put up a fight.
- we wanted something that will help the parents monitor their child's computer usage and their habits. Our product is aiming at parents who don't have the discipline to follow through their child's computer usage habits. With this program, parents can ensure that the kids do not overuse the software and damage their eyes
