Topic 3: Media Balance

Circle with 1/3 grayed out to show balance for Media Balance

The focus of Media Balance discusses the importance of students being able to find a sense of balance in their Digital Lives. We know that children are using their devices for many things: school work, research, videos, online gaming, and more. It's important that children recognize and have agency around finding a healthy media balance between their Digital Lives and their real lives and have time and space to reflect on thier own media use. During these reflective times. students can discover the different feeling that arise from thier media use during different activities. These emotional reactions impact our student's lives in both positive and negative emotions. Providing support, guidance, and practice to help students figure out what balance looks like for them allows students to develop thier own agency in what "balance" means to them in their own Digital Life.
