Abstract

This study intends to enhance parents’ competencies in digital parenting by equipping them with the knowledge and strategies to effectively navigate and mediate their children’s engagement with digital technologies while fostering awareness of the potential opportunities and risks related to digital settings. For this purpose, e-content was developed, and applications for its use were created. The study established a content list including e-content scopes, titles, and subtitles. This process was conducted by determining the needs of parents who participated in the study. The content list was finalized and presented to nine experts. In line with the experts’ opinions, the final e-content list was adjusted. Based on the results, the e-content was developed using the outputs of the first stage. The content developed comprises 144 items, including e-books, infographics, podcasts, explanatory videos, and digital stories. After finalizing the contents, the third phase, evaluating the effectiveness of e-content using a quasi-experimental design, was conducted with the participation of 55 parents. The data were analyzed using appropriate analysis methods. Feedback from experts was analyzed using Lawshe’s technique. This review showed that the content list was appropriate in scope. As a result of the quasi-experimental study, the pre-test and post-test scores of the parents showed no significant difference.
