District 64's first Parent University video podcast is on the web!
The short presentation is designed as an opportunity for a family viewing and discussion to help students navigate the in's and out's of online interactions. The program is geared particularly for grades 3-8, although all parents may benefit.
Students in this digital age have many types of interactions while online: positive, negative, friendly, hostile. A trio of District 64 experts -- Social Worker Linda Mirza (Roosevelt School), Psychologist Jocelyn Ortiz (Field/Roosevelt schools), and Instructional Technology Coach Beth Rihtar (Field School) -- discuss how we can teach children to cope with the actions of others as well as with their own reactions to a digital world. They also respond to questions students have submitted anonymously.
