​
Digital citizenship and keeping kids safe online is such an important topic. We were so proud to be able to feature #digcitkids in a recent webinar with Curran Dee and Marialice Curran, a mother/son team who are the co-founders of #digcitkids. Curran shared "Digital Citizenship from a Kid's Perspective" and it was so exciting to hear about their initiative. In today's webinar we are thrilled to hear from Steve Garton from Common Sense Education to learn how the amazing Common Sense resources can support parents and educators with "Parenting in the Digital Age." The Common Sense resources are exemplary, and this is the "go to" site for teachers and parents alike when they want support for curriculum, ideas and materials that will help promote safe online activities with kids. Steve will share information about many of these resources including Common Sense Media, Common Sense Education, Common Sense Kids Action and Connecting Families. His insights into the research about how teens/tweens are using media and ways to help them find balance with their digital lifestyle will be invaluable and will provide ways parents and teachers can support activities such as video games, social media, screen time, sharing online and much more!  

Steve Garton is Senior Manager for Common Sense Education. He is an expert in meaningful technology integration, particularly in large-scale initiatives. He supports districts with professional development planning, program monitoring, student assessment, and communication across stakeholder groups. Prior to joining Common Sense, Steve was the Coordinator of Educational Technology for the Maine Department of Education. At the Maine Department of Education, he led the professional development programs for the Maine Learning Technology Initiative, the state’s 1:1 program that supported over 12,000 teachers and administrators. As a member of the department’s leadership team, he provided policy support and leadership. Steve was co-chair of the Smarter Balanced Consortium Technology Approach Committee and led the initial technology readiness and assessment infrastructure work. Additionally, he served as a member of the advisory council of the Maine School and Library Network, Maine’s statewide broadband network serving K-12 schools and public libraries. Steve has served as a technology director at the county level (Trumbull County, Ohio) and a classroom teacher and technology coordinator of the Sharon City School District in Pennsylvania.
