Bridging Generations in the Digital Age: A Global Conversation on Social Media Use

Today, our middle school students engaged in an enlightening international dialogue as part of the Round Square Postcard Event, “Screen Shift: The Generational Divide.” Together with peers from Argentina, Bangladesh, Canada, India, Pakistan, South Africa, and the UAE, they explored how social media usage varies not only between generations but also across diverse cultural and national contexts.

The discussion offered a thought-provoking look at how technology influences communication, identity, and social interaction worldwide. Students reflected on how digital platforms can both bridge and widen generational gaps, fostering global understanding while also revealing distinct cultural nuances. Through open dialogue and collaboration, they embraced the Round Square IDEALS of Internationalism, Communication, and Leadership, developing empathy and intercultural awareness in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
