Educators face increasing demands to use digital tools effectively, not only to teach but to support the well-being of their students.

This has been especially critical throughout the pandemic with the rapid pivot to teaching online.

Naturally, students remain the primary focus. But educators also face challenges in establishing a healthy approach to digital technology in their work.

Dr. Aga Palalas, an expert in the field of digital wellness with years of experience teaching online, draws on her research and shares practical insights to help educators establish healthy digital habits.
