I’m pleased to share some of the exciting activities we have planned for the Fall.
Our #AskTheExperts webinar series starts again in late August. Registration is open for our first #AskTheExperts webinar of the Fall 2024 season, “Safe Zone: Children and Online Safety” happening on Wednesday, August 28, at 12pm ET via Zoom. Other topics this season include Sexual Harassment, ADHD and Digital Media, Communication and Language Development in Early Childhood, Reality vs Fiction Online, and Digital Therapeutics.
Get ready for the launch of our podcast featuring leading experts in digital media and child development to answer the big questions: How are kids really doing in the digital age? What insights have we gained and what are we learning about their development that may change how we understand and engage with them? Stay tuned for details!
Finally, planning is underway for the 4th Digital Media and Developing Minds Scientific International Congress, to be held July 13-16, 2025 in Washington, D.C. This multi-day event will gather leading experts from various disciplines to explore and address the critical impact of digital media on child development.
