Cyber-safety presentation at Maple

Add to your calendar! Mike Donlin will be presenting at Maple on January 12 at 6:30 pm. His topic? Cyber-safety! This presentation will take a closer look at the online life of young people. He’ll specifically look at the 5 Cs: cyber safety, cyber security, cyber literacy, cyber citizenship – and in particular, cyberbullying. There will be lots of interactive conversation while we will look at signs, conversation topics, and resources. There will also be time for Q&A and sharing.
Mike Donlin is a program consultants for Seattle Public schools, and he helped to create a new cyberbullying curriculum this year for Seattle teachers, training them to better equip students, parents, and themselves to deal with the issue. We are glad to have him as a resource!
