Collaborative Strategies for Healthy Tech Use in Schools

Monday, June 1, 2026 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am PST

In an era when screens are everywhere, the classroom should be the safest place for a child to learn how to use them. This edWebinar shifts the conversation from “how much” technology to “how well” we use it.

Join the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction as they share their Guidance for Purposeful Screen Use in Schools and Sue Thotz, Director of Education Outreach at Common Sense Media, as they showcase how educators can think purposefully about tech use in the classroom and communicate that intentionality to families. They’ll also share how to model healthy (digital) habits and maintain a healthy “age and stage” balance that respects child development.
