Above The Fray: Program Aims to Teach Teens to Use Social Media Responsibly
Above The Fray: Teaching Teenagers How to Use Social Media Responsibly
by Mina Frannea
There is an urgent need for an open and honest conversation with teens, parents and teachers about responsible social media use.
In partnership with wellness expert Aja Uranga-Foster, Selvage Media has started an Indiegogo campaign that will run until Christmas. Their plan is to work with a teen focus group for the next few months, learning all they can about what life is really like for them in the social media trenches. They are then going to use that information to a create meaningful and tangible curriculum to share online and in classrooms. The goal is to launch Above The Fray before school gets out for summer.
