What is Digital Well-Being?
Learning Objective
I can define digital well-being and explain its importance.
Key Concepts
Becoming aware of how we feel in different situations, whether we're using media or not, is about the habit of notice, and making choices considering those feelings.
For very young children, from ages zero to two, we can use emotion labeling to give them the language for what they're experiencing.
Parents can model healthy behavior by putting their phone aside and having set times to check their phone instead of reacting to every notification.
