A ready-made lesson on short-video feeds, for any school.

A 40-minute student session, a parent talk and a teacher handbook. Narrated videos do the talking, so any teacher can run it, without an expert in the room. Free for every school, anywhere.

How it works

Download the kit: Slides with notes for the teacher, narrated videos, a handbook and the parent materials. No sign-up. Once downloaded, no internet is needed in the classroom.
Play the video, pause for the activities: The video explains each slide. The teacher pauses where the handbook says, and runs a short activity or discussion with the class.
Run the parent talk: The same way, with its own narrated video, at a parents' meeting. Parents take home a short guide.
Tell us how it went: What worked, what didn't, what your students asked. Every school's feedback improves the next version.

What is in the kit

Student session, ages 10–13: 40 minutes. How endless feeds keep us watching, and a few habits to try, with more activities and simpler language.
Student session, ages 14–18: 40 minutes. How recommendation feeds work, what research finds about attention and sleep, and what it can't show. Students discuss a made-up student, never themselves.
Teacher handbook: What to say on each slide, how to run each activity, answers to hard questions, and what to do if a student is upset: follow your school's own safeguarding process.
Parent talk: About 20 minutes plus questions, for a parents' meeting: what research finds, what it can't show, and practical steps for families.
Parent guide: A take-home guide: setting limits without constant arguments, a sample family phone agreement, and settings that help on Android and iPhone.

Coming later: a printable student workbook, a seven-day habit challenge, a classroom poster and a voluntary pledge.

Register your school

Registering is optional and free: the kit stays open to every school. Registered schools hear first when the kit changes, and later get a school area for downloads, reports and teacher certificates.

What the kit stands for

Evidence, not fear. Every finding in the kit links to a study in our research library, with what that study can't show.
No student data. Students never sign up anywhere; their reflections stay on paper, with them.
Voluntary and never shaming. Nothing in the kit is used to rank, punish or single out a student.
Reviewed before use. A qualified counsellor or child psychologist signs off every part.
Practical. Students try skills, such as planning a phone-free study period, rather than only hearing warnings.

Get involved

Pilot it in your school: Teachers and principals anywhere: write to us if you would like to try the kit and tell us how it went.
Counsellors, psychologists and trainers: We are looking for people to review the kit, and later to give live sessions at schools that want one. Write to us.
Native speakers: Help us check the Hindi and Telugu versions, or bring the kit to another language. Write to us.
