Fostering Digital Wellness for Staff
Equip your staff with tools to manage their own digital habits and overwhelm, while helping their students too.
These sessions focus on:
Staff Digital Wellness: Strategies to support teachers in maintaining a healthy work-life balance with technology, reducing screen fatigue, and modeling good digital habits for students.
Student Digital Wellness: Practical tips for guiding their students in device-heavy environments, helping teachers set boundaries, helping them stay focused in class, and building a mindful relationship with technology.
Fostering Digital Wellness for Students
My student workshops go beyond the limiting screen time talk; they empower students to understand the tech they use and how to build healthy, sustainable digital habits. These interactive sessions cover:
Healthy Digital Habits: Teaching students how to manage their time online, set boundaries, and use devices mindfully, ensuring tech serves their goals rather than distracting from them.
Understanding Algorithms and Tech Company Platforms: Helping students recognize how algorithms and social media platforms are designed to keep them hooked. We’ll explore how to curate content and take control of our experiences.
Mental Health and Resilience: Addressing the emotional impact of being constantly connected and how social media can affect self-esteem and mental health. I provide strategies for building resilience, handling online pressure, and fostering a healthier relationship with tech.
Open Communication with Parents: Encouraging students to have honest, open conversations with their parents about their online experiences. We discuss how transparency at home can build trust and create a supportive environment for navigating the digital world.
Fostering Digital Wellness for Parents
Bringing parents into the conversation is key to supporting students' digital wellness. I work with schools to create engaging, informative sessions that educate parents on the same topics their children are learning about, from media literacy to current online trends.
In-Person or Online Parent Sessions:
I can lead interactive, in-person or online sessions for parents, giving them the opportunity to ask questions and engage in discussions about digital wellness and media literacy. These sessions will cover:
Practical tips for supporting their children’s digital habits at home.
Ways to communicate openly and effectively with their kids about online experiences.
Updates on the latest trends and issues impacting their children’s mental health and online presence.
By offering these options, your school can foster a tech-positive, collaborative environment where parents feel informed and empowered to support their kids.
