Being 13 - CNN Documentary

My thoughts: A new documentary by CNN is airing at the moment all about the secret world of teens and their social media. 216 US thirteen-year-olds agreed to have their social media output archived from September 2014 to April 2015. A child psychologist and sociologist examined the output and their PFD report, in addition to links to the CNN site, are below. I highly recommend reading the executive summary.

Digital Learners & Digital Literacy Primary Presentation

My thoughts: many thanks for all those that survived the storm in the morning to listen to the students, Peter Howe and myself explain the ins and outs of digital learners and digital literacy. I had some interesting discussions with parents following the presentation and we are eager to receive your feedback and in particular your feed-forward on how we can help support you and your children. Please add your thoughts to the Padlet on this link: padlet.com/brta/yq3cdlf5pfq0 (also embedded below) to help us prepare for the next event on the 1st December 2015.
