Our Guest Host this week is Beth Russell, the Digital Skills specialist at Rockford Middle School, Center for Environmental Studies.

The world has gone digital! In the last few decades, much of the information and transactions we need for everyday life has moved online. This gives us a lot of flexibility, and opens up a lot of new possibilities for us all to explore. We can all receive a lot of benefits from learning digital skills to best work with the online world – including having podcasts drop right into your phone!

And of course, there are rules to learn and procedures to follow to work well in this world. Learning them in school is so handy for kids, who will be part of the ever-changing and growing digital opportunities that will keep developing.

Join us! You can subscribe in any podcast app, or just listen to all of our shows on our website.
