Media, Media, Media!

Now that it's summer and I have no books to be reading for classes since I graduated, I have a new love affair - the library! I am loving all the books that I can find time to enjoy from fiction to furthering my education in school counseling.  I noticed a book recently on the "new" self and was immediately interested and took it home. It's called Talking Back to Facebook by James Steyer from Common Sense Media.  I am only a few chapters in and I enjoying the perspective and research background he has on all that media is helping or hindering in our brains today... especially the teenage brain.  I highly recommend reading this book for the insights into the world our students are living in. 

Also, Jenna and I are already getting prepared for the All Ohio Counselor's Conference this coming fall and are excited to have 3 hours to spend on the topic of 21st Century Skills - keep reading as more details will follow in later posts! 

Also, I wanted to highlight a video from our conference this past fall that I still enjoy and get excited about each time I watch it, enjoy and happy summer!
