It’s been almost a year since we’ve posted, but we’ve been busy working through our data and starting to share our findings more widely.

In April, we presented a paper at the AERA conference in New York:

Dennen, V. P., Rutledge, S. A., Bagdy, L. M., Rowlett, J. T., Burnick, S., & Joyce, S. (2018). Social  networking  sites,  teen  identity,  and  high  schools:  Unregulated  social  spaces  in  formal  learning  environments  Paper presented at the American Educational Research Association, New York, NY.
