<strong>Luis Miguel De Camps<\/strong>, to move towards the regulation of the use of <strong>mobile devices<\/strong> in <strong>educational<\/strong> centers has received broad support from teachers, directors, students, mothers and fathers, who agree on the need to promote a more pedagogical, responsible and balanced use of technology in the classrooms.\n\nThe approach has generated a favorable response in different sectors of the education system and in families, showing a growing consensus on the importance of regulating and guiding the use of technology in the school environment.\n\nThe results of inquiries and studies conducted by the Ministry of Education and other entities reflect a general willingness to adopt measures that strengthen the pedagogical use of devices, without limiting their potential as a learning tool, with the support of mothers and fathers.\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We recommend reading: <a

proposal, which was presented to the National Education Council, the body in charge of defining the policies of the pre-university public system.\n\nAmong the answers collected, students have identified risks of the inappropriate use of cell phones, such as distractions, attention problems, cyberbullying, and access to inappropriate content, while proposing measures such as establishing usage schedules, restricting them in the classroom, and reinforcing supervision, with the participation of families.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"

align with those of principals and teachers, who have expressed a willingness to lead technological integration processes, although they recognize the challenges involved in the unregulated use of devices in classrooms, highlighting the importance of working together with parents.\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We recommend reading: <a

teaching work, and ensure that technology effectively contributes to learning.\n\nThe Ministry of Education's proposal is part of a broader strategy to transform the education system, aimed at integrating technology in a planned manner, reducing gaps, and improving educational quality with the participation of the entire school community.\n\nWith this process, the country is moving towards an educational model in which technology is used intentionally, responsibly and aligned with learning objectives, with the active support of families.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo. \u2013 The initiative promoted by the Minister of Education, Luis Miguel De Camps, to move towards the regulation of the use of
