The rise in social media and internet popularity has been followed by a rise in cultural and global awareness. Peoples who historically were marginalized have been able to band together and share their story on a public stage. From posts to videos, social media has created a diverse network of thoughts, ideas, and experiences. But just because it’s out there doesn’t mean it has been received readily. Many minority groups and cultures are still fighting to make their story heard. So what can we do to create a cyber culture of inclusion? How can we help our kids be more inclusive online? Here with us today is Richard Culatta, CEO of the International Society for Technology in Education and the author of the book “Digital For Good: Raising Kids to Thrive in an Online World,” back on the show to help us better understand online inclusion and how we can better foster it.
The Call for Creativity
It can be easy to forget to spend any time on the things we want to do when there are all the things we have to do. While as a kid you don’t think twice about deciding to have fun, as an adult you have to plan your fun or it simply won’t happen. While it sounds like a sad reality, it doesn’t have to be. Making a conscious effort to spend time doing the things you love can make them even more special and can even help you focus on developing a new talent or skill. So what are the benefits to calling on your creative side and how can we make the time for it?

Good Tenant/Landlord Relationship
According to the 2020 Census, at least 30% of households in the US are renters –that means that one out of every three families has a landlord. And these relationships, between renters and landlords, can sometimes be strained. But it doesn’t have to be this way! Today we’re learning about how both landlords and renters can make their relationship a strong one, one that’s honest, fair, positive, and doesn’t make you wish you lived somewhere else. And here to tell us all about how we can make that happen is Steve White. Steve is the CEO of RentPrep and is an expert on how landlords and renters work together to make great partnerships.

After School Snacks
When you’re a kid, there’s something about coming home from school that makes you just want to eat everything in sight. While this might be an exaggeration (though, if you remember being a teenager, it probably isn’t), the after-school-snack is a time-honored tradition between parents and kids. It’s a great way to refuel, decompress, and get geared up for the rest of your day. But while the kids focus on eating, the parents are wondering what’s the right thing to feed their kids after a long day of school. So what’s the best way to after-school-snack? Today we have Carrie Ann Rhodes, our resident expert on all things hearth and home, here to give us some great ideas for back-to-school snacks that leave everyone happy.

Online Inclusion
The rise in social media and internet popularity has been followed by a rise in cultural and global awareness. Peoples who historically were marginalized have been able to band together and share their story on a public stage. From posts to videos, social media has created a diverse network of thoughts, ideas, and experiences. But just because it’s out there doesn’t mean it has been received readily. Many minority groups and cultures are still fighting to make their story heard. So what can we do to create a cyber culture of inclusion? How can we help our kids be more inclusive online? Here with us today is Richard Culatta, CEO of the International Society for Technology in Education and the author of the book “Digital For Good: Raising Kids to Thrive in an Online World,” back on the show to help us better understand online inclusion and how we can better foster it.
