(B) Device Management Application (DMA)
In rolling out Personal Learning Devices (PLDs) for students, MOE is acutely aware of concerns regarding students’ cyber wellness. The DMA allows the school and parents to manage this, by
-
collecting data on usage by the student, such as the amount of time spent on each application,
-
monitoring, filtering, and limiting the type of websites accessible to the student, and
-
placing restrictions on students’ screen time in order to prevent cyber addiction.
