The Internet – is it Good For Us – My Smarter Essex

We have limited spaces for attendees and places must be booked in advance, please contact us to book. Spaces will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

My Smarter Essex returns with "The Internet: is it Good For Us?" by examining how data, connectivity and artificial intelligence will influence our health, looking particularly at physical health, mental health and 'cyber health'. An exciting new, more interactive format is planned for this session (see agenda below).

Students (aimed at Year 9+) and teachers will be able to understand, explore and simulate how their requirements and preferences can influence the design of a Future Essex, meet with industry partners and discuss further education and career options in an informal setting.

It will be free to attend and transport will be funded where required. Parking will be available on the day. Food and refreshments will be provided.
