Homeschool Unrefined 209: Devices, Technology & Screens
Join us as we discuss devices, technology & screens!
We know this is a hot topic and one that can often be heated. It's complicated and encompasses an ever-changing landscape.
What is it about screens that captivates our kids? A sense of community, autonomy, and dopamine are three key words to keep in mind. Our world is technology-dependent and connected so it's important that we empower ourselves and our kids, and get curious while we seek to understand this issue.
Together, let's dive into the following:
- Our kids are watching us and our relationship with screens. Like it or not, we are modeling for them!
- It's critical that we teach media and tech literacy.
- It's essential that we create a plan together, with our kids.
This last season of our podcast is for homeschooling parents, traditional school parents, and everyone in between. This is our last season and definitely our best season!
We’re here to show you how to:
Identify learning opportunities in everything you do, how to celebrate your child’s differences, and how to give yourself and your kids credit for all the things you’re already doing.
If you have felt unwelcome in other spaces, we hope you feel welcome here.

Angela:
Almost two months later, this album is still a bop.
Maren:
I have become a TV show snob, and this show checks all the boxes for me! This is a locked room murder mystery, which grabs my attention every time. Almost the entire season 1 takes place on a yacht. It unfolds the present timeline with family, financial, and social drama, plus jumps back to a previous unsolved murder very much entangled with this one. The vibe is Knives Out meets Succession.
