Join the annual iYouth Conference for a day of engagement, exploration, and discussion on February 21st from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM in Mary Gates Hall at the University of Washington.
This year's focus is iDentity, a theme giving us the chance to discuss how youth form identity through emerging technology, through the stories they hear and tell, and through the connections they make in their communities.
Session topics include STEM in schools and libraries, diversity curriculum in rural schools, community building and teen engagement. Our keynote speaker will be Erin Jones, Director of Advancement via Individual Determination, Tacoma Public Schools.
