As part of the ACPS 2020 Strategic Plan, ACPS will promote efforts to enable students to be healthy and ready to learn. This includes fostering a balanced use of digital tools. As families navigate the use of screens for school and entertainment purposes, the following articles and guidelines are helpful for making decision in your home. In ACPS, we focus on the quality of screen time, aware that the devices available to modern students are their learning tools. We center our planning on what children are doing with digital tools, aware that how they interact with devices is what matters most. Screen Time in the Balance by Linda A. Estep was published in the International Society for Technology in Education’s (ISTE) April 2016 entrsekt magazine. ISTE has provided ACPS privileges to share this with families.
