About the event
Kids and adults feel addicted to their technology -- and it's no wonder: Every day, we're bombarded with virtual notifications, autoplay, feedback loops of likes and follows, and other tactics designed to keep us all glued to our devices. It's called digital manipulation, and it's on the rise. Educators and health professionals are increasingly concerned about technology's overwhelming presence in our daily lives, so how can parents do their part?
Join Common Sense to learn about how to use our devices more intentionally, avoid the risks of constant connectivity, and focus on being great digital role models for our kids.
