It’s amazing what can happen when we put our heads together. I was thinking about that idiom this week while the final pieces of our Screens in Schools Action Kit were coming together for its launch next Monday, February 10. The Action Kit, a powerhouse of information, templates, and strategies, will empower parents and teachers to push back against the tide of edtech, protecting their children and all children from the associated screen overuse. This Action Kit is the first large project implemented by an Action Network Work Group. Under the leadership of Seth Evans, the group’s volunteer chair, many individuals spent time researching, creating, and testing the materials soon to be available to all parents, teachers and advocates. Work group members were dedicated to editing and revising, tracking sources, formatting, proofing and making sure the right elements were included. Today’s message is short and sweet, since we are still working to notify press and get promotion ready for the kit. Stay tuned to see what happens when we put our hearts together, Jean | |
