Technology Speaker: Free Event

The Futures of Learning in a Networked World is a free event to be held at Mason Rice School on April 9th.  Digital technologies are transforming civic life and the working world, and they are reshaping the skills and dispositions that young people need to thrive. How should schools adapt to a changing world, and what practices should be held constant as the world changes?

Understanding the answers to these questions requires understanding how computing technologies are rearranging the kinds of work that people do, and the new possibilities for learning created by new technologies. Join in a conversation through this terrain with Justin Reich, Fellow at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society and the co-founder of EdTechTeacher.

Justin is a co-author of Best Ideas for Teaching with Technology: A Practical Guide for Teachers by Teachers, and his academic work has been published in Educational Researcher, Social Education, Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education, and other venues.  His website is www.edtechresearcher.com and his bio is can be seen here https://cyber.law.harvard.edu/people/jreich

Wednesday April 9th from 7:00 – 8:30 pm

Event co-sponsored by Cabot PTO, Mason-Rice PTO, and the PTO Council
