About the course

Smartphones, online games, social media—the digital world captures the attention of children at an increasingly young age. Can teachers do anything about it? Absolutely! We think they can. In this course, experienced educator Jolanta Kawaler will show you how to support students in building healthy digital habits and in protecting them from the risks of screen addiction. This is a practical training course designed to equip you with concrete tools and a fresh perspective on one of today’s most pressing challenges in education.

Course Description

Many students spend more time online than offline. For some it becomes a way to escape emotions, relationships, or academic struggles. The line between healthy enthusiasm and harmful overuse blurs quickly—and the consequences can be serious: reduced focus, social withdrawal, emotional imbalance.

This course will help you recognize early signs of internet dependency and take preventive action before the problem escalates. You’ll learn how to guide students in developing balanced online behaviour, strengthening their sense of their own self-worth, and discovering meaningful offline alternatives.

Drawing on her extensive experience with children and teens, Jolanta Kawaler will introduce five practical techniques you can apply right away in your work. What you do as a teacher truly matters—this course will help you make that impact count.

Perfect for teachers of all grade levels.
