No Such Thing, Episode 40: "Sex Ed In the Digital Age”

Listen now to No Such Thing, to hear what the largest provider of SexEd, Planned Parenthood Federation, Rutgers University's "Answer," and one college senior have to say about the current state of sex education in the US.

Listen to No Such Thing: Episode 40

In this episode I'm talking with Julia Bennett, Director of Learning Strategy at Planned Parenthood Federation of America, along with Dan Rice, Director of Training for an organization called, Answer out of Rutgers University in New Jersey, and Temitayo Fagbenle, Senior, City University of NY, Queens College and soon-to-begin "Fellow" at "Nancy," a production of WNYC Studios. You may remember her from previous episodes of this show on higher education and youth radio.

If you've wondered about this intersection between technology and the sexual development of young learners, I'm with you. We tackle some big issues in this episode, and I hope also shed some light on the reality of where young people are learning sex ed, and what role adults in their lives can play.
