Digital Future Forum: Technology, Social Media and The Impact on Learning

Last night’s forum was a discussion of digital technology and social media and their impact on learning and education.

Thank you parents, students and faculty for joining the discussion. There’s lots more learning and thinking to do and I look forward to the on-going exploration and conversation.

We will be actively planning ways to open the discussion to the whole PDS community.

Thank you to the PA for providing dinner and to the After-School program for the child care.
