We’re offering another workshop date! This one is on Zoom and will be hosted by Northern WAVE GSWW who will be continuing to host Critically Empowered Workshops after I step away from my Gold Award project.

The event is on September 11th from 1-2:30pm PST. You can register on the Northern WAVE website linked in my bio. More info is available in our Facebook event. Although the content of our workshops is targeted at middle school girls, people of all genders and ages are welcome and encouraged to attend. And you do not have to be a Girl Scout or living in Washington to join us!

Be sure to share this event with your friends and family!

Media and its impacts on our minds is one of the central themes explored in this project. But before we can dive into how to improve our interactions with media, it is important that we first understand what media is and how our brains are already engaging with it. Look through these slides to learn more.
