Kids and Tech: How to tell fact from fiction and support positive engagement
About this Event

Contrary to much public discourse, digital technology is not universally damaging to young people or driving a teen mental health crisis. Mizuko (Mimi) Ito is a cultural anthropologist who has researched teens and technology for over three decades. In this talk, she will address fears, review evidence about varied risks and benefits, and offer examples of positive and productive intergenerational engagement with technology.

Mizuko Ito - University of California, Irvine
