Digital Detox Schools

Dream of a school where students leave their smartphones and do sports, play games, organize tournaments and do debate competitions together. It is not impossible. As European high schools, we will come together and make this dream come true. We will build digital detox schools where students will use the digital world not only successfully, effectively but also at the exact time when they really need it without being addicted to their smartphones. They will not waste much of their time their noses buried in their smartphones, they will get the control and will learn to navigate this digital world. We need to take action because we are aware of the danger at schools. We know our students are losing their time control, so they are tired, anxious, always in a hurry, and always falling behind on their plans. This project aims to raise awareness about bad effects of smartphones and try to reconnect our students to the world where they prefer face to face communication, where they can slow down and take a deep breath, where they move, walk, run or jump. We know that if we engage our students in enjoyable and interesting tasks at school, if we can get them out in nature, they can be kept away from their smartphones and social media. Only in this way, they will notice more in their immediate surroundings, their environment and have better social interactions with each other.
