Digital Kids ResourcesThis page is meant to support Ryan's presentation entitled "Digital Kids".
An important note: The content of this presentation is specifically designed to address cell phone and tablet usage in kids as entertainment and social connection. Schools are doing amazing things with technology. They often utilize professionals trained in digital content creation. These types of programs and professionals are essential to your child's academic development. Not only do I encourage you to give your child ample opportunity to engage in these types of assignments, I encourage you to join them. See what they're doing and let them explain how it works. If it came from a teacher, chances are that teacher has thoroughly vetted the program and has an academic reason for sending your child to it. Lean on them as you try to develop productive ways for your child to engage with technology. Just remember, the tech should support your presence, not replace it. |
