Rabbi S. Zalman Kleinman to Talk About Unforeseen Consequences of ZOOM Learning
One of the ways learning was able to continue for most children, was through the on-line teaching provided by their melamdim. Of course, not all children were able to maintain interest when the teaching is remotely provided, but there was no better alternative and Chabad melamdim worked harder that ever to prepare interesting classes.
The down side which has resulted is that we have created a familiarity with the internet for our children and this exposure has created a serious challenge to both parents and their children; how can they mitigate its influence. While the Rebbe taught that the benefits of technology must be applied to study of Torah and performance of mitzvos, it nevertheless presents a challenge: how do we limit its influence to desired subject matter and limit possible access to the undesirable.
This is not an issue to be ignored. The Kinus Vaad, recognizing the possible perilousness of this exposure will present a talk Rabbi S. Zalman Kleinman, a shaliach in Miami who specializes in computer issues at the Lubavitch Education Center in North Miami Beach. This special session is meant to help schools and mechanchim understand how the new exposure to the internet has created a serious challenge to both parents and mosdos and how to mitigate its influence.
This session is a must for all concerned Mechanchim.
