Educators

This was valuable for everyone in our school district—teachers, assistants, parents, counselors, students, administrators, school board members, and the Department of Education!!

An insightful, engaging, evidence-based session on technology and its addictive components. It explored the impact on our children, students, communities, and ourselves—offering actionable steps to support mental and physical well-being for all.

The information presented inspired me to make changes to my cell phone use starting today!

Please offer professional development sessions so that our entire staff can attend!!

So informative and, honestly, disturbing. It made me want to reevaluate how I use my phone every day. This would be excellent for all staff at FSSD.

It was eye-opening—an informative look into how addictive tech devices are, and how we can begin changing our digital behaviors.

Valuable information about digital devices and their long-term impact on overall well-being. Great for all ages.

This information is incredibly valuable and needs to be shared widely and continuously.

Very helpful and inspiring. Now I just need more ideas for what to do with all my newly freed-up time!!

Extremely useful and relevant for both parents and educators.

A truly needed and inspirational training!

Timely and important information.

Dr. Gupta is well spoken and engaging during her presentations. She made me stop and think, and helped our class remember the value of human connection and relationship, especially our responsibility to model healthy device usage to our children and students. That will raise our children's self-esteem and reliance on relationship as opposed to loneliness and self-isolating behaviors.

The session allowed me to rethink my usage of screen time and reevaluate my personal use on social media.

This is a topic that needs to be addressed and reflected upon by every person in the 21st century.

The session was very insightful and informative!

It was very eye opening and there’s a huge sense of urgency behind the message.

Dr. Gupta was well aware of studies done on addictive substances and willpower, related to brain research. It's fascinating!

This is needed for every person in today’s digital culture.

It was helpful to delete all unused/unnecessary apps!

I want to share this information with everyone!

Very eye-opening for soul-sucking apps and clutter!

Dr. Gupta was engaging and grounding. She provided my staff an experience that will benefit us greatly!

Very informative and engaging. Lots of valuable material.

Much needed!

Great information! The session had realistic ideas that can be implemented to improve devices usage time.

Very informative, the truth and science, not just opinions! Loved it, it has changed my thinking/understanding of digital use.

Inspiring and powerful. Eye opening to all!!

Awesome information! Great presenter! I hope people take a lot away from this and apply to their lives.

Insightful & thought-provoking exploration on the benefits of detaching from continual mobile device usage especially for pre-adults. I agree that no screen time is best for 5s and under and limited beyond. I believe 18-year-olds paying for their own phones is early enough for having a smart phone to be used as a tool. Flip phones for being used for communication is a better solution than getting into an addiction path.

This digital wellness session really opened my eyes to the effect social media, smartphones, and screen time has on young children and even adults! It was very insightful and really encourages me to work on my own screen time habits for myself as well as my children.

This session was extremely eye-opening. It made me more aware of my own potential addiction to my phone and devices and has inspired change within me.

Too much screen time is harming all of us, and we must find ways to decrease WMD use, especially in children.

Very engaging and thought provoking. Makes me want to throw smart phones in the river!

Fantastic information regarding technology use in children and its effects.

There is a lot of important information available in this session concerning not just children but ourselves.

Very useful information for our educational field!

Very informative for parents and children alike.

Very informative and inspiring session!

Very informative and practical.

As a person who is teaching computer skills this was helpful and informative. Even for my younger students!
