About This Course

Created by Digital Awareness UK in partnership with the HMC, ‘Tech Control – Live Your Life’ is the first in a three-part series of resources to help promote the healthy and positive use of technology. This video aims to educate the audience on how to sleep and study without interruption from technology. Driving awareness in this space will help to protect children from the physical and emotional side effects of unproductive studying and sleep deprivation.

The Tech Control resources encourage you to come up with practical solutions to help ensure technology has a productive influence on children’s overall health and well-being. This is achieved through the promotion of digital resilience, critical thinking and digital awareness.
