Every Waking Minute? Examining Personal Media Habits go

Last updated: 01/26/10

What are the implications of a new study showing that kids use electronic devices virtually all the time? In this lesson, students take a close look at their own media use over time, identify any detrimental habits, then develop personal plans and put them into action. They then write and deliver persuasive speeches on the media and technology topic of their choice.
