Tools and Resources
A curated list of products, talks, books, and organizations helping us navigate our digital age well.
Aro
Aro is the first in-home digital wellbeing solution designed for families. The Aro platform ensures you don’t miss out on what’s most important by making it easy for everyone to put down their phones and be fully present.
The Price of Shame
Today, the kind of online public shaming she went through has become constant -- and can turn deadly. In a brave talk, Monica Lewinsky takes a hard look at our online culture of humiliation, and asks for a different way.
Tech-Wise Family
Drawing on in-depth original research from the Barna Group, Andy Crouch shows readers that the choices we make about technology have consequences we may never have considered. Anyone who has felt their family relationships suffer or their time slip away amid technology's distractions will find in this book a path forward to reclaiming their real life in a world of devices.
Screen Sanity
Screen Sanity is an international nonprofit that equips parents to be mentors and guides so kids grow up happy and healthy in an increasingly digital world.
Center for Humane Technology
Its mission is to drive a comprehensive shift toward humane technology that supports the collective well-being, democracy and shared information environment.
Stolen Focus
In the United States, teenagers can focus on one task for only sixty-five seconds at a time, and office workers average only three minutes. Like so many of us, Johann Hari was finding that constantly switching from device to device and tab to tab was a diminishing and depressing way to live.
Social Dilemma
The Social Dilemma is a powerful exploration of the disproportionate impact that a relatively small number of engineers in Silicon Valley have over the way we think, act, and live our lives. The film deftly tackles an underlying cause of our viral conspiracy theories, teenage mental health issues, rampant misinformation and political polarization, and makes these issues visceral, understandable, and urgent.
A Kids Book about Life Online
Kids today are growing up with social media and life online, which is a big change from how their grownups grew up! Life online isn’t a bad thing, and it isn’t necessarily a good thing either. This book shows kids that how you hang out online only tells the whole world who you already are, and that when you show up authentically, creatively, and kindly, you can change the world!
