Back to EpisodesImpact of technology in the schools: What parents need to know
Description
This week, Kate and Anne are joined by a longtime educator, John Clark, who is here to unpack the less talked about side of tech in schools. From Chromebooks in every classroom to constant app-based assignments, we explore how schools may be unintentionally fueling screen overuse and what that means for kids’ focus, behavior, and emotional health.
Whether you're a parent of a kindergartener or a tween with homework on Google Docs, this episode offers insight into what’s really happening during the school day and how we can work together to build healthier tech habits for our kids.
