Digital wellbeing

Digital Wellbeing is about fashioning and sustaining a healthy relationship with technology. As technology plays a big part in our lives, we find ourselves spending an increasing amount of time online and on our devices. Our wellbeing is dependent upon our mental and physical health and thereby our digital wellbeing is influenced by our online interactions and the amount of time we spend on our devices. Whilst technology and the internet can simplify and enhance our lives they can also be distracting, be a cause of anxiety, and make us feel upset. Being in control of technology enables us to use its full potential and gain all the benefits of it. This unit will enable students to explore some of the areas of digital wellbeing from the standpoint of a prospective computing professional. It will provide the opportunity for students to investigate digital wellbeing within computing systems and explore the responsibilities and solutions to the problems presented.

Research objective/question
Students are to choose their own research topic for this unit. Strong research projects are those with clear, well focused and defined objectives. A central skill in selecting a research objective is the ability to select a suitable and focused research objective. One of the best ways to do this is to put it in the form of a question. Students should be encouraged by tutors to discuss a variety of topics related to the theme to generate ideas for a good research objective. The range of topics discussed could cover the following:
• How to find the balance towards a healthy relationship with devices?
• Are tech companies responsible for the health, safety and wellbeing of users?
• What tools and strategies can a company use to develop a system(s) that addresses digital wellbeing for users?
• What impact will future digital tech have on human wellbeing?
