About

Kids binge-watching TV in class. Plummeting NAPLAN scores. Bans that aren’t properly implemented. Principals are demanding the government – and parents – do more to stop the smartphone epidemic. History in a Coffee Cup favourite Ros Thomas returns to discuss her latest research, recently published in The Weekend Australian Magazine, on how screen addiction is affecting Gen Z and what can be done about it.

Please stay for free morning tea and chats after the talk.
