"This document provides useful ideas and insights for anyone who is interested in what you can do, starting today, to support youth in thinking about their tech-filled lives and how they can start building digital agency. In it: a) We make the case for why we should all focus on youth digital well-being; b) We describe several resources that can spark new kinds of conversations about tech – while leveraging insights from existing research and evidence-based practices; and c) We explain why it’s important to all work together, including with youth, if we want to build resources that stand a chance of helping. At this stage, the resources we’ve created are designed particularly with classroom teachers and other school-based educators in mind. We worked with our colleagues at Common Sense to co-create full lesson plans, slides, handouts, and facilitation guidance for how various resources can be used in the context of a ~45-minute class period. You can also find implementation guidance and a recommended sequencing of the resources on page 30 of this document." (Page 3)
