The hidden dangers of EdTech: How technology in schools impacts learning, child development, and mental health with Andy Liddell

Discover the impacts of EdTech in schools and how parents can advocate for their children's education with technology attorney Andy Liddell

- What EdTech is and how technology like iPads and Chromebooks are being integrated into classrooms.

- The hidden dangers of screens on the learning experience, what is at risk when hands-on learning is replaced by more passive educational experiences, and how to optimize information retention, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

- The role of big tech in surveillance capitalism, persuasive design, and selling children's data.

- How much control do schools have over blocking and restricting content on school-issued devices? (Spoiler: Most technology comes with no restrictions in place.)

- How tech in classrooms is displacing social interactions, interfering with relationship development, overstimulating vulnerable children, and putting stress on an already fragile system.

- What parents can do to teach media literacy, advocate for their child's privacy, and push for more thoughtful use of technology in schools

If you're concerned or just curious about the influence of technology on your child's learning and development, this conversation is packed with strategies and insights to help you navigate these challenges with confidence and purpose.
