Great work, PFSM!!! Between this and Screen Strong's "Kids' Brains and Screens" course we have a great opportunity to tackle Haidt's 4th (and most important) action step: returning to a play-based childhood.

Very kind of you to include the printable graphics. This is an important public health crisis and it is gaining great attention and traction. Keep pushing forward. The public needs leadership on this issue, consensus is growing and change will come. I hope to see further research and discussion about WHY tech is used within classrooms and if it actually benefits learning or is, indeed as most of us suspect, actually a historical anomaly that hasn’t enhanced learning. Tech skills might be needed as say, a preparation for the job market, but could the tech learning be confined to a tech lab within the school and accessed only during formal training sessions much as keyboarding (typing) and other skills classes?
