Do You Know Enough About the Impact of Screen Time on Students?
In this 13-minute podcast episode of Studentcentricity, guests Dr. Victoria Dunckley, author of Reset Your Child’s Brain, and Cindy Eckard, founder of Screens and Kids, describe how teachers may be contributing to a negative impact on children’s health and well-being if they’re requiring too much screen time in the classroom. While acknowledging some rewards related to the use of technology, Dunckley and Eckard question whether those rewards are worth the risks involved in the overuse of screens, such as the potential for attention or learning problems, anxiety, or reduced eyesight.
