Description
In this highly interactive session participants will explore the social and psychological implications of living in a world with boundless technology opportunities. Using case studies and current research we will explore how to help students create balance, navigate digital environments safely, and advocate for their own well-being. This session addresses the tough questions facing teachers, parents, and administrators as they help students navigate a new world online: How do gifted students deal socially, emotionally, and intellectually with “constant connectivity”? How do teachers and parents bridge the digital divide to support gifted students while keeping them safe online?
