Social Media 201: Embracing the Digital World

When our kids talk about the latest social media trends, it can feel like they’re speaking a foreign language. Founder and CEO of the Social Institute, Laura Tierney, joined the show to help us understand how we can best support our children in navigating the current social media landscape. She highlights the importance of positive social media education and shares how technology can support our children’s mental health and even their study habits. Resources:  Explore the Social Institute’s family resources and watch recordings of their recent webinars For more information, check out Schools and Social Media: A Survey of NSPRA and CoSN Members from the National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA) Look back at our episode with Dr. Sameer Hinduja, Social Media & Cyberbullying 101  Follow the Social Institute on social media at @TheSocialInst and Laura Tierney at @SoLaur
