Join us on April 23rd at Sunnyside Environmental School to welcome Jared Cooney Horvath moderated by OR Unplugged co-founder Kathy Masarie.

Jared Cooney Horvath (PhD, MEd) is a neuroscientist, educator, best-selling author and expert in the field of human learning. His new book The Digital Delusion: How Classroom Technology Harms Our Kid's Learning - And How to Help Them Thrive Again pulls back the EdTech curtain and explains the research showing how digital tools in the classroom consistently undermine learning. It also explains how parents, teachers and schools can push back with purpose.

As a leading expert in the field of learning and technology, Jared recently testified at the US Senate about EdTech, and is an internationally sought after speaker.

Kathy Masarie is a retired pediatrician and co-founder of OR Unplugged. OR Unplugged is a statewide coalition that raises awareness on the impacts of screen time, empowers parents and community members to take collective action, and advocates for stronger legislative safeguards to protect kids from digital harm.
