Design X Social ’22
Screen Tme
Project Summary
Problem Identified
Given the extension of the lockdown to a year, kids (pre-adolescents, teens) are going to be spending a lot more time on their screens, both for school work as well as entertainment. Research has shown that prolonged exposure to screens, can affect kids not just physically but also mentally and emotionally.
Design Innovation
What we are trying to do through Screen Tme is build a low cost system that parents can follow along with their kids which will not just get kids to be more conscious of their screen time, but also follow a system that they create, which in the long run will enable them to create routines. As an added advantage, through our process, the kids might also end up discovering their passion.
Impact On The Society
This process will not only allow kids to reduce their screen time, but will also get parents to be involved in their kid's well-being in such a way, that it changes the status quo that exists between kids and parents in most Indian households. Other benefits include mental and emotional development of children, an understanding of how to build and maintain systems for any purpose.
