EduCon 2020

NOW IN ROOM 1169 Presenters (including students) will help define the digital world and what it's like to live there. Students will discuss how they use social media and discuss various inquiry questions around using social media, online identity and the pros and cons of social media. Participants will be invited to share their own experiences and pose questions to the students. Presenters will provide example lessons done in class and class discussions to model what these discussions look like in a classroom. Participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of how young people navigate their online lives and they will walk away with specific strategies for having conversations around cyberbullying, responsible & respectful uses of social media, the impact that social media has on individuals and society, and the way social media can be leveraged for good.
