This session is ideal for educators, administrators and policymakers at the school, district and state levels who are involved in shaping and implementing technology policies. It is also highly beneficial for parents and community stakeholders interested in understanding and promoting responsible digital habits and effective engagement with youth in the digital age. Use this Google form to register.
