Growing up: How different is it on line?
This week’s film looks at the divide between those of us who did not grow up with a mouse in our hand and our children who have. On Tuesday, November 3, Pandora’s Box Continuing Education Class presents the documentary Growing Up Online, which examines the very public private worlds that kids create online and raises questions about how the internet transforms childhood in ways parents are slow to embrace. English professor Kristine Ervin will introduce the film and lead discussions afterward. Registration for this free class will be available prior to the start of class .
