This image is of a Google Search from an ‘Incognito’ tab with the search terms, “engagement” and “Screenagers.” As you can see my picture shows there, and half of the hits on page 1 are mine publications too.
Does this mean I am the world’s top expert on Engagement and Screenagers? No, but engagement has been my practice and research passion for 25 years. 
Does this mean I am an expert at spreading the word and telling the world there are ways we can engage with Screenagers and others to live the life of our dreams? Maybe.
Does this mean we can all take actions to change our course to beat junk engagement (like junk food) and to experience optimal (high value) engagement in this screen age? Yes! I say we don’t have to push back against our “Screens,” and we can work together with technology in this digital/screenage to build the best life possible!
Also, I have two almost Screenagers and I want to be able to give them the best digital futures I can by teaching them the discipline and skills they will need to not only survive but to strive this new digital/screenage.

7 Ways Engaging Screenagers Best Improve Their Learning Time In life it has been my experience that believing in yourself has more to do with success than most any other factor. Don’t you agree? When you believe in yourself then you make the decisions that support your success. Often, we hear complaints about how Engaging Screenagers (aren’t we all now) are not making the best decisions with their time, but are we helping them learn how to use their time for what’s most important? Are they learning to, as Stephen Covey says, “Put first things first?” The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change For example deciding not to play video games for hours on end (a few minutes for a break is great, but long term it becomes  junk-engagement)  can open those hours for hours on end of learning ( optimal engagement .)    In the following I will describe what I learned when I went back to Graduate school, but I realize (now) how important thes

Thinking/Talking vs. Trying/Feedback: Engaging Screenagers

Thinking/Talking vs. Trying/Feedback: Engaging Screenagers Thinking/Talking I go to a lot of conferences with a lot of really smart people and there was something in I noticed way back when I first started attending those conferences. What I noticed is that many of those really smart people do a lot of thinking and talking and that and very little actual prototyping and trying to get feedback. In academia, we use the Scientific Method of research were we create a hypothesis and then gather data that either supports or does not support our hypothesis. This process inherently takes a long time to complete, and as the world is changing so quickly, at times the research can be outdated before it is published.  (junk engagement) Interestingly I’ve seen lot of research on what they call the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, and yet very little of that research is actually used by teachers in the classroom. What I’m wondering is, shouldn’t that research be benefitting

4 Steps To Curate A Safe Place To Fail: Engaging Screenagers In school, don’t we teach students they are to give the right answer or they fail? In life, don’t those who fail the most become the most successful? Aren’t we somehow missing the picture in education? Isn’t there a way to let students learn that failing is just learning what doesn’t work? Why is this important? Michael Jordan and Jack Ma are both famous for failing and they are both quite successful because they learned to turn failure into learning and kept trying.
