excellent.
Not sure that detection theory would be useful to learners other than to pass their test
Good resources and reminder of issues surrounding privacy and digital well being
I have learned so much from this module, it has really enlightened me! I really enjoyed doing the quiz, and feel that I will never look at digital wellbeing quite in the same way again. Life changing!

An interesting unit , thank you.
good info
really interesting and insightful - i enjoy anything related to well being
Good resources, but some of the information is out of date.
Could concentrate more of physical health / what support is needed: there are also other adaptations which are widely available. Could put laptops on books or boxes to raise heights... also legs. Could set a 30 min alarm, might be useful to have links to ‘flight exercises for DVT’, which aid stretching and moving.
Could suggest eye tests as well as screen breaks... may be free to under 18’s.
Good information
Actually pointed out areas I fall into and need to stop
check introduction - summary of chapters from another module
Boo-yah!
quiz was very specific to data....
Useful advice
You need to check your time on the internet - particularly doing these modules!
I am jut pleased to have finished the unit.
giving me a good under standing
very useful
THIS COURSE WAS GOOD
Great!
Cool
A good Module
Useful for well being.
Very important information regarding digital well being .
Very interesting facts to help you be aware of physical inactivity and psychological risks.
a good module
Some useful links to apps but I think there could have been more in here,
Also, as always, please proof read! e.g. the following which I copied from one of your pages "Fitness applications can be sued to monitor ..."
okay just really wish my badge had my name on it after going through all the modules.
Another good course to learn
Digital wellbeing quiz question "Prolonged periods or aimless browsing is called" - should this be "Prolonged periods of aimless browsing are called"?
some excellent further resources here for teachers and learners
Good. Made me consider a Fitness/Health Watch.
This raises a lot of important issues. Additionally, with the current 'lock down' situation related to the Coronavirus pandemic it is good to focus on the issues created by the necessity to rely on the internet for work, social interaction and buying essential supplies.
Great module with a wealth of information and teaching ideas
Might be good link to health and illness topic in class.
