This interactive session explores technology and AI through a Social-Emotional and Character Development (SECD) lens. Participants will examine the digital spaces students navigate daily and connect SECD competencies to communication, self-regulation, and responsible decision-making online. The session also reframes digital citizenship as applied SECD while addressing AI ethics, emotional well-being, and critical thinking in tech-saturated environments. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to elevate student voice, agency, and responsible digital engagement.

Presented by NJEA & SEL4NJ.
