SUMMARY:The EdTech Wake-Up Call: Rethinking Digital Learning for Kids
DESCRIPTION:Educational technology has rapidly reshaped classrooms\, often without parents fully realizing its impact. But is all this screen-based instruction actually helping our kids learn? \nIn this live ParentEd Talk\, neuroscientist and “The Digital Delusion” author Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath joins ParentMap to challenge EdTech’s biggest promises and examine what the data truly shows. He will explain how excessive technology use can undermine kids’ learning and attention\, and share clear\, practical ways parents and educators can restore meaningful learning at school and at home. \nYou’ll leave with:  \n\nA simple understanding of the neuroscience behind how kids learn — and how EdTech based learning can fall short.\nEye-opening data on the impacts of EdTech and how parents and educators can encourage schools to strike a healthier balance with technology.\nPractical strategies you can use at home to boost your child’s learning. \n\nReclaim real learning. Reserve your spot for the live interactive talk — and get access to the recording to watch anytime. \nAbout the speakerJared Cooney Horvath is a neuroscientist\, educator\, bestselling author and creator of The Learning Blueprint\, an international award-winning program for educators and students on the science of learning.
