Magician & Hypnotist Helps Youth Avoid “Social Media Land Mines”
Cyber safety and magic don’t usually go together, but on Tuesday, May 3, internationally
recognized magician/hypnosis and wellness “edutainer” Robert Hackenson Jr. will be in
Rocky Ford to teach cyber safety in an unexpected and engaging way!
Teaching students about social media safety is critical. Whether it’s getting addicted to technology, posting hateful things, hurting reputations, meeting people online or tarnishing your online reputation. It can be dangerous.
Magician and "edutainer" Robert Hackenson Jr. is changing how teens post and use technology. This amazing presentation has allowed students across the country (in 47 states and counting), and around the world as far as Australia, to understand how to use this technology responsibly.
His presentation infuses magic, eye-catching illusions, skits, and more in a way that engages students while reinforcing the educational lessons. Every piece of magic, story, video clip, etc. is used to deliver a message and make it memorable, without making light of this serious issue. His presentation helps start a conversation amongst parents and students about social media safety and responsible posting. The audience will leave understanding the importance of thinking before you post.

• Discuss and perform magic tricks & illusions live on the air related to teen social media safety.

• Social media dangers, including:
