Module 7: Digital Well-being

Module 7 Summary and Reflection

Putting it all together

Why is digital well-being important?

Managing technology to be in balance by actively implementing strategies for spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental health is essential to our well-being.

Who is digital well-being important to?

Everyone requires healthy boundaries with digital technologies to use them intentionally and not in ways that harm others.

Summary

In this module, we shared one example of how we can use an Indigenous way of knowing and being in the world to support digital well-being. We also introduced some secondary ideas for you to consider. We encourage you to research other ways of creating digital well-being in your life, modelling it, and teaching it to your students.
