Educators and school leaders are dealing with more issues related to kids’ public sharing:

  • What does it mean to be “famous” these days?
  • How can we teach kids about conflict resolution?
  • How can we navigate the impact of group texting?
  • How can we prepare all students (and staff) for the realities of having a searchable digital reputation? 
  • What can we do when explicit or hateful images and videos circulate in school communities? 

Drawing from the research for her book, Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in a Digital World, Devorah will engage educators with how we can shift our focus from the threat of reputation consequences to a conversation about character.
