Young people now have media literally in the palms of their hands. What does this mean? And what we can do to encourage healthy media use in an age of selfies, Netflix, and Facebook?
Presented by Dr. Jessica Taylor Piotrowski, University of Amsterdam
Now, more than ever before, young people are surrounded by media – thanks to the sophistication and portability of the technology that puts it literally in the palm of their hand. Drawing on work that crosses many fields and continents, in this presentation, Dr. Piotrowski will present findings from her new co-authored book (together with Professor Patti Valkenburg, published by Yale University Press) on the role of media in the lives of children from birth through adolescence. During her talk, she will address and highlight the complex relationship between media and young people and reflect on what we all can do to encourage healthy, enjoyable, and responsible media use in an age of selfies, Netflix, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
