Rethinking Tech Use in Schools with Dr. Ansel Sanders

Are you concerned about the impact of smartphones on student learning and social skills? In this enlightening episode of the Aro Podcast, host Joey Odom talks with Dr. Ansel Sanders, president of Webb School of Knoxville, about the school’s approach to technology, balancing its benefits with the need for meaningful personal connections.

Webb School has strategically designated 'sacred spaces' — the cafeteria, auditorium, and outdoor walkways — as phone-free zones to enhance face-to-face interactions and strengthen community bonds. This conversation calls on educational leaders nationwide to re-evaluate their technology policies and ignite discussions on integrating tech in ways that truly benefit students.
