LIKE DOCUMENTARY SCREENING – The Impact of Social Media in Our Lives
Event Information
About this event
Common Ground Speaker Series enthusiastically presents our third screening of LIKE: A Documentary About the Impact of Social Media on Our Lives. The film will be followed by a moderated discussion.
LIKE is an IndieFlix Original documentary that explores the impact of social media on our lives. Technology is a tool that is here to stay. Online social platforms provide a place to connect, share and care, but what is really happening? Are we addicted? Where do we start? How do we stop? What do we need to know? By understanding the effects of technology and social media on the brain, on our lives and on society, we can learn how to navigate it more safely together.
We hope LIKE will inspire people of all ages, especially kids, to self regulate. It is not about blame. It is about looking in the mirror and empowering ourselves to create balance in our lives and to learn to support each other.
Parents and students ages 10 and up are welcome to attend!
Please note that Bellarmine has requested that attendees park in the student lots and not on neighborhood streets surrounding the school. See this map.
Organizer Common Ground Speaker Series
Organizer of LIKE DOCUMENTARY SCREENING – The Impact of Social Media in Our Lives
The Common Ground Speaker Series is a parent education consortium on the San Francisco Peninsula. Each year we present a slate of cutting-edge speakers, topics and special events designed to inform, engage and inspire our school communities.
Common Ground began with eight member schools in 2002. Today, we represent more than 15,000 families at 44 schools, stretching from Hillsborough to San Jose. Our events take place at a variety of venues on the Peninsula and showcase the most current thoughts on education, health and parenting.
Common Ground is led by representatives from each member school. Together, we work to provide a forum for parents and educators to learn, strategize and develop a sense of shared community.
We invite you to join us this season to explore innovative ways to keep our families, schools and communities strong in the 21st century.
All Common Ground events are free to the parents, faculty and staff of our member schools. Faculty and educators from non-member schools are also admitted free of charge. Guests from non-member schools and the general community are welcome to attend for a $20 fee at the door.
