With schools out for the holidays, balancing screen time and family life is on everyone's list. Join us on Zoom for a conversation led by James Connell, PhD, one of our own School of Education colleagues and a widely published expert in child development and education. Dr. Connell will share the science behind screen use and its impact on children, and discuss practical strategies to help parents manage technology use during the holiday break (and all through the year!).

 

Please RSVP to receive a Zoom link for the event.

 

This event was organized by the Drexel Parents & Caregivers Colleague Resource Group and is open to anyone seeking thoughtful, evidence-based advice to navigate the holidays with balance and intention. Any parent or caregiver employed by Drexel may join the group by following the Drexel Parents & Caregivers channel on Teams.
