Join this webinar to discover how school leaders can lead with clarity in the age of A.I., backed by student insights and proven strategies from forward-thinking schools.
Starting in the 2026-2027 school year, every public school in North Carolina will be required to teach social media and online safety as part of their curriculum, according to House Bill 959, the state’s new social media literacy law. Schools across North Carolina (and the world!) already partner with The Social Institute to stay ahead of this requirement. Learn how!
From birthday shoutouts that may spark insecurity to slang that can conceal subtle bullying, and influencers whose content can shape real-life behavior, students are constantly interpreting – and impacted by – what they see online. How can educators help students navigate all this and more? Dive in!
When it comes to teaching modern life skills, starting early matters. Even at a young age, kindergarteners make important decisions every day, whether it’s on the playground or through their first experiences with technology. These early moments shape how they approach problems, interact with others, and see themselves. That is why The Social Institute is expanding #WinAtSocial to support all of K-5. Now, educators teaching K-2 can teach offline lessons that fuel responsible decision making with turnkey, offline lessons. Hear from Jonna Wahle, Integrated Tech Specialist at McDonogh School in MD, and Katie Hanson, School Counselor at Bob Callies Elementary School in ND, about how they implemented #WinAtSocial to support their elementary students’ learning, well-being, and futures.
Whether they’re calling out unrealistic standards on TikTok, exploring how A.I. can support conservation and accessibility, or questioning the reliability of online news sources, students are proving they’re ready to engage with technology on their own terms. Dive into how educators can support them to navigate it all in positive ways.
