 “The Screen Smart Learning Framework builds caring and community in every classroom.”  John Cech, Ph.D., author, ANGELS AND WILD THINGS

Learning loss and screen time

We know that screen time can stunt students’ empathy, literacy, vocabulary and grit. Teachers see the distressing results in children who can’t focus and fall behind. Lacking self-regulation, they labor to learn and may bully others.

The Screen Smart Learning Framework reverses the negative effects of screen time.  By strengthening children’s ability to focus and self-regulate around screens, the Framework boosts literacy, empathy and higher order thinking.

Screen Smart Learning Framework Outcomes:

  • Stronger concentration, self-regulation, and persistence among students
  • Improved literacy and critical thinking skills help students make better screen-use choices
  • More empathy and social emotional learning (SEL) means more kindness and less bullying
  • Higher interest in learning overall
  • Greater responsiveness and responsibility: Students hold themselves accountable and they behave in ways consistent with school and family values

“They realized they each have control over what they watch and how it’s important to talk with someone about how it makes them feel.”

– Ms. Zamarron, PreK, Crown School
