Expert to Speak on Influence of Technology on Learning
With young children gaining access to a dizzying array of games, videos,
and other digital media, will they ever learn to read? The answer is "yes" if they
are
surrounded by adults who know how to help and if they are introduced to media
designed to promote literacy instead of undermining it.
The McDonogh Parents Association invites parents of lower school-age
children
to Tap, Click, Read: Growing Readers in a World of Screens, a Parenting
Education program featuring Lisa Guernsey, a world-renowned expert on the
influence of new technologies on young
children and early learning. The program will take place on Thursday, April
12 at
7:00 p.m. in the Klein Lyceum, Edward St. John Student Center, McDonogh
School.
Guernsey is director of the Early Education Initiative and the Learning
Technologies Project in the Education Policy Program at New America. She leads
teams of writers and analysts to examine policies, tell stories, and generate ideas
on new approaches to help disadvantaged students succeed. Guernsey is a
former technology and education writer at the New York Times and
The
Chronicle of Higher Education and a contributing writer for numerous other
national publications. Read more about Guernsey here.
All are welcome.
