Students Talk Screen Time

Upper School students from Dr. Yoder's Behavioral Economics class presented research on social media’s impact to Middle School boys at the Shaker Campus. Drawing from studies, discussions, and their own experiences, they shared strategies for reducing screen time and building stronger offline relationships.

These students are especially passionate about being leaders for their younger peers to help them think more carefully about their online and screen activities and the potential implications for themselves and others. This presentation was not adult-driven but grew from our students' desire to share this message with younger US boys.
