Easthampton Public Schools, Easthampton Healthy Youth Coalition, Emily Williston Memorial Library and the Easthampton PTO present a FREE ZOOM webinar: Raising Humans in a Digital World
For Parents of Middle Schoolers and Up
This is a virtual program and will be presented via Zoom.
Our digital media world can be a scary, dangerous place, especially for children. Digital Literacy educator, advocate, and frequent contributor to Psychology Today Diana Graber will share with us how parents and caregivers can help our kids navigate this environment and build a healthy relationship with technology.
This presentation will be addressed to parents of children approximately 12 years of age and up. Topics will include: digital reputation management, screen time and balance, the most popular social media platforms amongst teens (TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat), maintaining online privacy, and much more. It overviews other topics in my book and a discussion guide would be sent to you afterwards so attendees may continue to discuss topics after the presentation.
This event is sponsored by the Easthampton Learning Foundation.
