Social Media Smarts: Helping Youth Use New Media in Positive Ways

Overview

This webinar helps youth workers, parents, guardians, grandparents, and mentors of youth to realize they don’t have to be a social media guru to help the youth they love navigate the new media landscape well. Dr. Gorrell will explain how youth are spending their time online (according to them!), the most important possibilities and pressing challenges of new media, and concrete things adults can teach youth (specific do’s and don’ts for their mental well-being and living out their faith as they engage with technology).
