Über diesen Titel

After hearing from the Fellows of Headstream, we thought it would be good to take a step back and look at the project at large. Today’s guests, David Ball, and Carla Loury, Director and Program Manager of Headstream respectively join us to share more about the program’s mission of facilitating inclusive digital experiences for young people. We kick off the show by discussing wellness generally along with personal manifestations of well-being. It's important to understand that this is a highly-individualized concept. As such, Headstream looks at how they can foster meaningful connections, social and emotional skills, and support in online spaces to make the experience of growing up in the digital world a positive one. From there, we turn our attention to some of the ways that digital spaces can be harmful to young people, along with approaches to overcome these obstacles. We also discuss the importance of empowering young people authentically, which goes beyond giving them a seat at the table. It's about allowing them to share in ways that resonate with them. We wrap the show up by talking about how Headstream moves beyond the traditional 'teacher knows best' mindset to a co-collaborative one, their exciting upcoming Youth Advisory program, and how our skills can enable us to create great digital spaces. Be sure to tune in today!
