Please join us for an open and interactive discussion with the author of Mindful Tech: How to Bring Balance to our Digital Lives, which has been the focus of the Winter 2019 UW Tacoma Emerging Practices Reading Circle. Professor Levy will introduce several practices intended to help us bring mindful awareness to our engagement with digital media and technology, and to gain more autonomy in our relationship with technological tools. Professor Levy will also discuss mindful tech engagement in the context of the classroom and pedagogy, as well as scholarship.

This discussion is open to all faculty, staff, and students. It is not at all necessary to have read the book or engaged previously with the Reading Circle, However, an ebook is available through UW Libraries at the below link for those who are interested.

Presenter: Dr. David M. Levy, Professor, UW information School
