You’re invited to join us Tuesday August 12th through Thursday August 14th for the 2025 STEM Summit at the Wenatchee Convention Center! The STEM Summit provides professional learning opportunities for teachers and educational staff members in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics taught by experts and specialists in their fields.
In this keynote, we separate fact from fiction while looking at the latest studies on issues such as technology addiction, gaming, cyberbullying, and anxiety. We will explore practical strategies and mindsets for talking with students and promoting healthy digital habits and positive online behavior. You will leave with a toolkit of resources to help you connect with your students and create a healthier and more balanced digital world.

At the intersection of artificial intelligence and human learning lies a complex landscape of possibility -- where technology is NOT a replacement for thinking, but an opportunity for cognition and learning. Through a neuroscience lens, we'll challenge how we navigate educational technology, revealing how AI can serve as a companion that activates neural pathways, supports plasticity, and invites students to engage with technology as a collaborative partner. This exploration isn't about fear or blind enthusiasm, but about thoughtfully designing learning experiences that amplify human potential by understanding the interplay between artificial intelligence and how the human brain learns.
We knock down the barriers of stress, bias and emotional reactivity with powerful, practical and proven neural-informed learning practices so that all students can learn.
