JENNIFER CASA-TODD BIOGRAPHY

Jennifer Casa-Todd is a gifted speaker and workshop facilitator. She has been described as engaging, inspirational, knowledgeable, and passionate. She balances research, stories, and humour, with practical takeaways and hands-on opportunities for learning. She is currently a teacher-librarian in Aurora, Ontario Canada, and the author of the book, “Social LEADia”, published by Dave Burgess Consulting. Before this, she spent six years at the District level as a Program Resource Teacher for literacy and literacy consultant, respectively.

In her district-level role, Jennifer Casa-Todd has had the honour of working with teachers from Kindergarten to grade twelve in practically every subject area to integrate technology in the classroom, support literacy, assessment, and differentiation, and promote twenty-first-century competencies. She has also had the privilege to write curriculum for the Ministry of Education of Ontario’s 21st Century Learning office as well as the Catholic Curriculum Corporation. She is a lifelong learner currently studying at the University of Ontario, Institute of Technology with a focus on social media in education and Digital Citizenship.

Jennifer Casa-Todd is a wife and mom of two teens. Wearing her parent hat, she has been the co-chair as well as an active member of the Parent Council for over a decade, bringing parent and school communities together for a variety of issues. She has also worked closely with the Bully-Free Alliance of the York Region, with whom she initiated a panel discussion, “Fears, Cheers, and Unclears: Parenting in a Connected World.” Jennifer is also the lead organizer for the Digital Citizenship Summit, Canada happening in the Fall of 2018.

Casa-Todd is also the author of :Social LEADia: Moving Students from Digital Citizenship to Digital Leadership”. It is full of examples of students who are leveraging social media for good, and the teachers who are empowering them to do so. Teachers and schools have banned and blocked social media for over a decade, and the results are only limiting ongoing learning opportunities and disconnecting teachers from students. It’s time for a new approach.

Jennifer Casa-Todd loves learning and connecting with other educators from across the globe, and is passionate about connecting students to each other and to the world. Technology has the potential to transform learning in ways we can only have imagined when we were in school! With awesome power, comes awesome responsibility too! She believes we need to think critically about issues of equity, access, privacy, and safety.

Jennifer Casa-Todd brings her experience as a teacher, consultant, student, and parent, to equip a variety of audiences to think differently about the power of technology and social media to transform learning experiences. She was honoured to be mentioned as one of the Top 10 Newsmakers of the Year in Tech in 2016. She is passionate about showing teachers and students how they can use technology and social media to make the world a better place.

social leadia - empowering students to be digital leaders

  • Virtual PresentationKeynote PresentationWorkshop SessionHalf Day TrainingFull Day Training
  • We so often tell kids what they “CAN’T” do online. It’s time we focus on what they “CAN” do. This session will highlight student digital leaders who are using technology and social media to learn and share learning, address social inequality, and be a more positive influence in the lives of others. We talk about connected educators, and yet connecting our students and engaging them in opportunities for digital leadership teaches them to be confident problem-solvers and must be a moral imperative in an age where they themselves will be googled.

    Participants will be guided to start their journeys to inspire staff and students to use social media beyond the social. It will showcase students who are not waiting until tomorrow to demonstrate leadership. It will provide educators with ideas about how to contextualize important digital citizenship lessons in positive and empowering ways, shifting away from fear and negativity.
