A list of practices students I've spoken with have found helpful for managing their mental health and general wellbeing in the world of smartphones & social media.
This document discusses several negative effects of social media use. It notes that 73% of young adults check their phones right before bed, disrupting sleep habits. A study found students who used social media during a video performed worse on tests about the video than students who did not use social media. Heavy social media users tend to have lower GPAs than non-users. Social media can also negatively impact work productivity and job prospects if applicants post unprofessional content online. Oversharing of personal details on social media enables identity theft and privacy risks. Social media also facilitates online bullying.
Social media addiction is an unhealthy dependence on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. It manifests as overuse and difficulty abstaining from social media. The dopamine cycle of social media use can reinforce addiction through anticipation of and reaction to likes, comments, and shares. Signs include excessive time spent on social media, obsession even when not using it, withdrawing from other activities, and anxiety when unable to check social media. Social media addiction can cause mental health issues like low self-esteem, depression, loneliness, and sleep disorders. Breaking the addiction requires limiting social media use, spending more time offline with family and hobbies, and finding new activities to replace social media.
Social media has both positive and negative effects. While it allows connection and communication, overuse can lead to mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Excessive social media use has been linked to loneliness, poor sleep, obesity, and even increased risk of suicide. Younger users are particularly vulnerable to risks like cyberbullying and exposure to inappropriate content. Moderation and awareness of potential issues is important to mitigate social media's downsides.
An examination of three traits encouraged by social networks--narcissism, insecurity, and isolation--that lead to negative behaviours among users and, ultimately, unhappiness.
This document discusses creating evidence of learning through visible and interconnected documentation. It proposes documenting the learning process through tools like blogs, images, video and audio to make one's thinking and learning visible. This allows students to engage in metacognition, reflection and curation of their work. The documentation also benefits teachers through insights into student learning and the institution through preservation of knowledge.
This document discusses the negative effects of social media that have become more prominent. It begins by highlighting how social media has negatively impacted people's behavior by causing them to constantly focus on their mobile devices rather than engage with their real-world surroundings. The document then analyzes ten serious consequences of social media for modern society, such as addiction, security issues, economic deficits, and more. It concludes by proposing ways to address these problems, including promoting concepts like "Slow Tech" that encourage more mindful social media use.

The strategic communication is like a boat trip that requires defining:
1. Short and long-term marketing objectives
2. A situational analysis of the brand, consumers, competitors and market trends
3. The desired consumer behaviors and actions towards the brand
4. The brand positioning within its category and whether it focuses on intangible or tangible values
5. Clear communication objectives such as increasing brand awareness, stimulating purchases or having consumers sign up to newsletters
This ensures the communication works towards the marketing goals through a well-planned approach tailored to the target audience and market situation.

The document discusses Facebook addiction, noting that over half a billion people log onto Facebook daily and the average user spends around an hour on the site. It outlines signs of addiction like constantly checking for updates and prioritizing Facebook over other commitments. A study developed the Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale to diagnose addiction based on how often users experience feelings like an urge to use Facebook more or using it to forget problems. The document advises that admitting you have a problem is the first step, then limiting daily usage and treating Facebook as a pastime rather than necessity can help overcome addiction.

Social Media & it's Impact in Today's WorldStephen Mokiwa
Social media and it's impacts on today's world. On Politics, Business and Society.
I was invited by and presented this to the Rotaract Club of Dar City, Tanzania on 8th August 2015.
Presentation of a diploma thesis about viral marketing. It brings a comprehensive view of the area of viral marketing. Identifies the most important aspects in detail to achieve a successful viral spread and outlines the possibilities of its measurement and use.
This PowerPoint talks about how social media has affected business, marketing, and people's lives. It has become a huge part of our society and has become extremely useful for people all over the world.
The document contains 15 inspiring social media quotes from various authors. Charles Leadbeater says "You are what you share." Erik Qualman suggests "We don't have a choice on whether we do social media, the question is how well we do it?" and "Increasingly, consumers don't search for products and services. Rather, services come to their attention via social media." The quotes provide tips on engaging audiences, telling stories, listening to consumers and using social media strategically.
Social media is making us lonelier. While it allows sharing information and connecting online, it reduces in-person interactions and emotional connections. The average time spent on social media daily is 2 hours and 40 minutes in America and 3 hours and 10 minutes in Africa. Loneliness is now prevalent even when people are surrounded by others. While social media can maintain existing friendships, online-only relationships are lower quality. Too much social media use leads to distraction from family and real-world relationships, and increases comparison and feelings of loneliness. We should prioritize real-world connections over virtual interactions.
The document summarizes the results of a survey about social media use. It found that most participants were younger than 29, with the average time spent on social media correlated to age. The most commonly used social media apps were Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok. Respondents reported using social media primarily to stay connected with friends and family. Most felt social media influences their daily lives and were aware of potential dangers like cyberbullying.
This document discusses the benefits and risks of social media use for kids and teens. The benefits include increased communication, building social relationships, and staying connected with others. However, risks include social media being addicting and distracting from schoolwork. It can also enable bullying and allow oversharing of private information. The document provides tips for parents to minimize risks, such as monitoring kids' social media use and teaching them online safety and privacy. It also includes statistics on kids' social media usage.

Social media uses internet technologies to transform one-way broadcast media into two-way conversations. It allows people to share information and engage in dialogues. Facebook has over 350 million active users who spend almost an hour daily on the site. Twitter has over 18 million users who are more active technology users. LinkedIn is used by 80% of businesses for hiring with an average user income over $100,000. Social media enables rapid information sharing, turns customers into brand advocates, helps search rankings, and promotes presence - all while being easy to use and affordable.
The document discusses some of the negative effects that increased use of digital media and social media can have on mental health. It notes that while research is still ongoing, studies have found correlations between excessive social media use, especially among teens, and increased rates of mental health issues like depression and anxiety. The constant connectivity enabled by digital devices can also disrupt sleep patterns and promote constant stress responses due to things like social comparison and pressure to curate an ideal online image. However, the document suggests some strategies like limiting notifications and focusing on one task at a time to help mitigate these mental health impacts.

Top Social Media Trends You Need to Know About for 2022Falcon.io
As marketers, we’ve all experienced some amazing highs, and some well, not so amazing lows. That’s why we want to discuss social media trends that you should focus on as we transition into a (promisingly) less turbulent 2022.
Incredible things are happening all over the world. Each and every one of us are getting closer and closer to a new normal that provides a mixture of both pre-pandemic and post-pandemic lifestyles. There are clear positive trends and shifts emerging, which will impact how we conduct our marketing activities in the near future. Join us to discuss how we can tackle 2022 one social media marketing trend at a time.
This presentation has been designed as part of the www.screenlessweek.co.uk resource and gives teachers a set of slides to use with pupils (aged 12 years +) to look at the issues of excessive screeen use.
The document provides information about creating a media campaign for the organization Switch Off. It discusses targeting 14-18 year olds to encourage reduced screen time. Primary research found that teens spend 5-8 hours on phones daily and usually feel negative afterwards. The proposed product is a 30-second video called "Isolated" showing the impacts of excessive phone use on mental health and school performance. It would cut between a student revising and one scrolling on their phone, then show the latter struggling in an exam. The video aims to open eyes to phones' effects on health, education and goals.

The document provides information about creating a media campaign for the organization Switch Off. It discusses targeting 14-18 year olds to encourage reduced screen time. Primary research found that teens spend 5-8 hours on phones daily and usually feel negative afterwards. The proposed product is a 30-second video called "Isolated" showing the impacts of excessive phone use on mental health and school performance. It would cut between a student revising and one scrolling on their phone, then show the latter struggling in an exam. The video aims to open eyes to phones' effects on health, education and goals.
The document provides details about creating a media campaign for the organization Switch Off. It discusses targeting 14-18 year olds to encourage reduced screen time. Primary research found that teens spend 5-8 hours on phones daily and usually feel negative afterwards. The proposed product is a 30-second video called "Isolated" comparing the impacts of high vs low phone use, showing exam stress. It will cut between scenes of a revising student and one constantly on their phone. Facts will pop up to further explain impacts. The goal is to open teens' and parents' eyes to the negative effects of excessive phone use on mental health, education, and life goals.
Kate Ho gave a talk about Project Ginsberg, which aims to help people cope with common mental health issues like stress, anxiety, and depression using new technologies. The project faces challenges because the target population is diverse and not depressed all the time. Digital tools currently focus too much on information rather than interaction. Ho discussed tools that use expression, tracking, and data aggregation to help people gain self-awareness and learn to better cope with their mental health issues. These include writing platforms, mood trackers, sleep trackers, and tools to combine data from various sources. The talk addressed whether technology can be combined with clinical outcomes to effectively help people manage conditions like depression.
The document discusses how web conferencing solutions like Zoom saw explosive growth with the rise of remote work and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. It notes that while these tools allow communication without physical presence, online meetings and classes can lack interactivity and body language. To keep audiences engaged, the document recommends using a visualizer device to display materials spontaneously and reset attention spans, as visual content is better retained than text-heavy slides. Integrating the visualizer's live camera feed into conferencing platforms like Zoom allows for flexibility and interaction lacking in static presentations.
Finally! Your Guide to Disconnect From Social Media! Spend Less Time in the Digital World and More Time in the Real World You Too Can Say Goodbye to Your Phone Addiction
Digital addiction with special reference to smartphoneSaksham Sharma
1) The document discusses digital addiction, especially smartphone overuse, and its negative effects such as vision problems, disturbed sleep, stress, anxiety, and loss of ability to focus.
2) It provides statistics on excessive smartphone usage and time spent on mobile apps.
3) Recommendations are given to overcome digital addiction, including turning off notifications, scheduling reply times, using grayscale mode, allowing boredom, muting the phone, uninstalling distracting apps, and practicing meditation.
This document discusses the challenges parents face in parenting teens in a technological age. It notes that teens are often more knowledgeable about technology than their parents. It emphasizes the importance of parents educating themselves about the technologies their teens are using so they can teach them to be good digital citizens. The document provides information on popular social media and communication apps teens use, noting both benefits and risks. It suggests parents establish guardrails for technology use rather than strict rules and discusses strategies for implementing guardrails and addressing misuse.
Friends Before Phones: It's Time to End Cell Phone AddictionSaneBox
At restaurants, during concerts, even in meetings. We see people more involved in what is happening on their screen than with the people in front of them. Beyond causing us to miss out on what is happening in real time (and annoying those around us), research shows that phone snubbing—or "phubbing"—has detrimental impacts on our relationships, mental health, and productivity.
This document provides a list of 19 apps that are under $5 each and can help children with autism improve skills in the areas of communication and language, organization and motivation, and following routines and instructions. The apps are organized into those three categories. For each app, a brief description is given of its features and price. The document encourages sharing other app recommendations on social media. It provides information on how to learn more about the book that was the source of the app list.
This document provides tips for getting better sleep in a world of constant notifications. It recommends putting all electronics out of reach before bed to avoid temptation. It also suggests stopping screen use an hour before bed, as blue light can increase alertness. Additionally, it advises putting phones on silent and removing extra alarms to eliminate noise and allow for restful sleep without interruptions.
Taking Responsibility for the Things We Unleash Into the World - IoT Meetup 2...Daytona
The document discusses the ethical responsibilities of designers when creating technologies that can influence or manipulate user behavior. It notes that while persuasion is inherent to design, there is a difference between persuasion and deception. The document examines examples of technologies that use questionable manipulation techniques and argues that designers must consider whether their work is understandable, useful, and ethical. It emphasizes that designers have power to help or deceive people and should use their skills to do good.
This document discusses the advantages and disadvantages of technology and how it affects our connections with others. While technology allows for easier and faster connections with more people, it can also be a distraction from real-time relationships. The document recommends prioritizing face-to-face interactions for close personal connections, as the social brain functions best when reading nonverbal cues in real time. Communicating electronically lacks these important social cues, so reflecting on intentions before responding can help avoid miscommunications.
The document describes several design concepts for communication technologies in polyamorous relationships that were generated through participatory design workshops and discussions:
1) A system that detects partners' emotions and shares them openly to promote radical honesty, though it would not share details of feelings.
2) A basic tracking device that partners could use to view each other's locations but could be turned off for privacy.
3) A forcefield for conversations that would allow privacy while maintaining openness by only transmitting information within the forcefield.
4) Smart clothing that becomes increasingly uncomfortable until a difficult decision like breaking up is made, providing relief afterwards as a motivator.
Information Effect: Internet Procrastination, What is it?9586344
Internet procrastination is a growing problem, especially among young adults and adolescents, who now spend over 6 hours per day on average online. Excessive internet and social media usage can lead to fatigue, poor sleep, and mental health issues. While multitasking with technology seems efficient, research shows it actually decreases focus and performance. Reducing screen time, keeping organized schedules, and setting deadlines can help reduce online procrastination.
A new COVID-19 pandemic has been sweeping the world. Now, many people have had to stay home from school or work. Studies show that most people use their smartphones an average of 80-150 times a day. We are all addicted to our phones, and if you don’t keep them in check, there may be serious repercussions.
This document discusses how to design products and services that create emotional connections with users. It argues that good design appeals to users on a visceral, behavioral and reflective level. It provides tips for understanding a core demographic and incorporating elements like color, language, imagery and storytelling that resonate on an emotional level. Additionally, it suggests giving users tools for self-expression and minimal interfaces that facilitate opening up about feelings over time. The goal is to design interactions where users freely share how a product makes them feel.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Tools &
Reminders For
Parents
This document is meant as a follow up to the talk “Education In The Age Of Distraction”
2. Phone-Free zones
Setting zones in your home like the dinner table or the
bedroom where no one (parents or kids) are allowed to
use the devices can be a helpful tool.
Helps facilitate conversation and children tend to be
more accepting of this when parents are held to the
same standard.
3. Physical alarm clock
Charge your device outside the bedroom.
Get a separate alarm clock in your bedroom, and charge
your phone in another room (or on the other side of the
room). This way, you can wake up without getting
sucked into your phone before you even get out of bed.
This allows you to wake up and think your own thoughts
as well as prevents you from immediately introducing
stress and anxiety into your day.
If you have your bedroom as a device free zone, this can
do WONDERS for quality of sleep. (Blue light before bed
messes with our sleep)
4. Lead by example
Make an effort to use technology as a tool instead of an
end in itself. When using technology, let’s communicate
the “why” to our children and ask them to communicate
theirs.
“I’m picking up my phone to send your mom something
she needs for her doctor’s appointment, I’ll put it down
right after I send the message.” “I know I’m on my
computer a lot during this time, but I’m working. This
screentime is different from TikTok, it’s how our family
puts food on the table.”
It’s hard to have a healthy relationship with technology,
and you likely won’t be able to communicate, or use it
intentionally all the time. Admitting when we’ve fallen into
the mindless rabbit hole is not only okay, but can also
set a good example of sharing honestly and
acknowledging the difficulty. Of course there is going to
be more Screentime during COVID, and please be gentle
with yourselves! It’s a hard time to be a parent.
5. Reduce blue light at
night
Research shows that blue light (which is emitted from most
screens) negatively impacts our quality of sleep.
Some have reported its helpful to wind down with no screen
time for at least an hour before going to sleep.
Features like Nightshift and extensions like F.lux help reduce the
amount of harmful light from our screens, but from talking to
people who have tried both, the screenless wind down seems
more effective.
F.lux can be downloaded by clicking the above link, and there
are two ways to turn Night Shift on and off:
Open Control Center. Firmly press the Brightness control icon,
then tap to turn Night Shift on or off.
1. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Night Shift. 2 On the
same screen, you can schedule a time for Night Shift to turn on
automatically and adjust color temperature.
6. Include your kids in the
rule-making process:
“I notice how much time you’re spending on social media and it
concerns me. Can we talk about that?”
Talking to your kids about your reasoning and theirs, and making
decisions with them, as opposed to for them, can help them
trust your guidance.
Work to understand the underlying needs and associated
triggers driving them to digital distraction, and brainstorm
solutions that may or may not involve screens. Parenting in a
pandemic is HARD most parents have been more flexible during
COVID.
Working with them is not the same as caving to their every
whim :)
7. Study & focus with your
phone outside the room
“Although these devices have immense potential to improve
welfare, their persistent presence may come at a cognitive cost.
In this research, we test the “brain drain” hypothesis that the
mere presence of one’s own smartphone may occupy limited-
capacity cognitive resources, thereby leaving fewer resources
available for other tasks and undercutting cognitive performance.
Results from two experiments indicate that even when people
are successful at maintaining sustained attention—as when
avoiding the temptation to check their phones—the mere
presence of these devices reduces available cognitive capacity.
Moreover, these cognitive costs are highest for those highest in
smartphone dependence.” - Ward et al. 2017
8. Ask the right questions
Instead of asking “Do you like that game/app?”
Ask: “How does that game/app make you feel?”
This allows us to separate the focus from how much time
we’re spending on something vs. how it impacts us on a
human level
9. Hobby ideas
Game Quitters Has a Hobby Tool which is a great
resource for anyone looking for an answer to
“What else am I supposed to do with my time right
now?!”
You can select activities based on your
preferences, like “At Home” “Free” “Offline” “Easy
to Start” “Creative” “Low Cost” etc.
10. Turn off all notifications
except from people.
Notifications appear in RED dots because red is a trigger color that
instantly draws our attention. But most notifications are generated
by machines, not actual people. They keep our phones vibrating to
lure us back into apps we don't really need to be in.
Visit Settings > Notifications and turn off all notifications, banners,
and badges, except from apps where real people want your
attention; e.g. messaging apps like WhatsApp, FB Messenger,
Signal, Telegram, WeChat etc.
11. Greyscale
Colorful icons give our brains shiny rewards every time
we unlock. Set your phone to grayscale to remove those
positive reinforcements. It helps many people check their
phone less. as well as creates a moment of Mindfullness.
“Ugh this thing is grey… why did I pick it up again? Did I
mean to?” Common for this effect to wears off after a
few weeks.
Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility
Shortcut (bottom) > Color Filters. This allows you to
quickly triple-tap the home button to toggle grayscale on
and off, so you keep color when you need it.
12. Screentime & Digital
Wellbeing
Apple’s Screentime and Android’s digital wellbeing
features will help you and your family set limits on certain
apps.

April 2019)
13. OurPact & Circle
At the end of each talk I ask parents “Is there anything
you’re doing that’s working really well for you?” And
OurPact and Circle are two products that come up
frequently. If Screentime or Digital Wellbeing are not meeting
your needs. In my experience, these are the parental control
tools that seem to be rising to the top as tools for
monitoring/blocking specific apps and setting limits.
Note: Others have complained that if you don’t sign up for
the premium membership OurPact scrambles the order of
apps on your child’s phone. And that Circle may slow down
your wifi.
14. Go cold turkey
This one is tough, but effective! It’s the easiest way to
cut back and improve your mental health, as these apps
can easily gobble up so much of our time and wellbeing.
This does not mean stop messaging and sharing
pictures & videos with your friends! It just means moving
those conversations to less toxic digital environments.
Delete Tik Tok → Make a dance or funny video and
send it to people you love directly
Delete Snapchat → Use Text & WhatsApp
Delete Instagram → Or at least prune Instagram of “Joy
Thieves” {unfollow everyone who doesn’t make you feel
good about yourself}
If it’s not social media for you, what is that one app/
game that sucks you in the most but leaves you with
regret? Delete that one!
NOTE: This is FAR more effective for teenagers to do in
groups. High likelihood of an unsatisfying outcome if
they try and do this by themselves. It’s also helpful to
frame it as a challenge.
“Try deleting it for a week and see how it feels.”
“Do you really want to go your whole life without
knowing what it feels like not having social media on
your phone?”
15. It’s never been easier
to run from ourselves
Learning to sit with feelings, boredom, and the
challenges that come with daily life is going to be a
major challenge for the next generation.
SEL, Mindfulness and Communication, have become
essential skills to navigate this digital world.
