Location: Thomas Hassall Anglican College
We are in a time of constant technological change, often fast paced, exciting and turbulent! There is, however, well-established concern about the digital habits of young people and the effect these have on their own self-image, relationships and mood – their wellbeing.
KEY TOPICS WE WILL EXAMINE:
Healthy Digital habits– what are they, how do parents establish them and establish boundaries?
What are some of the unhealthy habits we are seeing emerge around this issue?
If I purchase a phone for my child, when and which phone should I get?
How do we manage their time on devices?
What age is appropriate for my child to access social media?
How do I keep in touch with what they post?
Come and hear from Dr Andrew Campbell a leading authority in the area of Cyber psychology and Child, Adolescent and Family Mental Health. Dr Andrew Campbell has been researching and teaching in the area of e-Mental Health, for more than 15 years. He was the first psychologist in Australia to research and publish about the use of the Internet for social fearfulness/anxiety self-help.
