We know that the Digital Native is a myth, yet we often expect our students to navigate tech independently. In this session, we will look at how to support students as they move toward independent navigation of the complexities of their online lives. We’ll also explore ways to support their journey toward gaining greater digital wisdom including media balance, well-being, and creation. We will conclude by crowd-sourcing strategies to create independent digital leaders.

This session is meant for district- and building-level administrators to help understand the world AI is building in front of us, to help identify some critically important questions to ask before diving deeply into AI adoption, and identify some frameworks or procedures to explore and potentially adopt.
