About

In this session, we'll be discussing social media and youth and will use this discussion guide. We will explore questions like: Should there be more age restrictions on social media? Or should society rely on parents and teachers to guide social media usage by youth? Should smart phones be banned in schools? How does social media impact mental health?

Welcome to Dialogues! Here’s some helpful information to help you prepare for your session:

📌 Session introduction: At the start of the session, the event host will provide some introductory remarks about how the session will work and tips for discussion.

🧩 Discussion partner matching: All participants will be matched with a conversation partner to discuss with. If there are uneven numbers, you may have two conversation partners.

🤝 Breakout discussions: After the session introduction, everyone will switch to their breakout discussion. Your discussion will be unmoderated, so you can start when your partner arrives in the new Zoom link.

🗺️ Discussion Guide: You will have a topic-specific discussion guide for the session to help guide conversation.

Session length: The breakout discussions are scheduled for 45 minutes but you can discuss as long as you want!

Stay on topic: Please make sure to stay on topic. If you and your partner run out of things to discuss, it’s okay to end the discussion early. You will not be returning to the main group when your conversation is over.

🤔 Make the discussion your own: You probably won’t have time to answer all the guide questions so pick and choose! Feel free to also bring in your own questions and ideas outside of the guide.

📝 Survey: A mandatory survey will appear at the end of your session to fill out. This must be filled out for you to get credit for the session in your Dialogues portfolio.

🤸‍♂️ Have fun: There is no preparation needed for this event. These conversations are meant to be casual, in addition to being meaningful. We hope you enjoy it!

Hello everyone, my name is Joseph. I am a homeschooled high school junior from China yet taking an American program. I am the Founder and Moderator of the Reading and Writing Subworld. On Schoolhouse, I like to tutor English literature, ancient history&culture/mythology, Chinese, and community events. My sessions are full of joy and laughter because I like to insert games into my session and I enjoy chatting with my learners about anything. My best subjects in school are history, geography, and English, but please do not ask me to tutor you in STEM, that is my weak spot. I played the instrument Hulusi (gourd flute) a traditional Chinese instrument and reached the top level in 2022; I also have fundamental knowledge of piano and the Chinese bamboo flute. I also make a lot of art with ink pen and gouache. I have been attempting digital art recently and really enjoyed it! In my free time, I also play video games; I am a huge Honor of Kings fan :) I am a very active tutor on Schoolhouse and I love to make friends! Feel free to reach out with anything you might need help with and I am willing to lend a hand if it is within my power.

"Men learn while they teach" - Seneca I'm currently a senior in high school. I'm so excited to join the schoolhouse community as a tutor officially and I'm ready to grow with other tutors. I enjoy reading, writing, cooking, and learning new languages! Looking forward to learning:)
