D2.2 – Focus Group Findings: Educators’ Perspectives on Digital Well-Being
This report brings together educators’ perspectives on digital well-being from Bulgaria, Cyprus, Finland, Greece, Poland and Romania.
It examines the effects of digital technologies on students’ emotional, behavioural, mental, social, physical and cognitive well-being.
Educators identified benefits when technology is purposeful, structured and pedagogically justified, but raised concerns about excessive or fragmented use.
Key issues include distraction, digital fatigue, sleep disruption, weaker face-to-face interaction and over-reliance on AI.
The report highlights the importance of consistent school policies, digital competence, balanced learning practices and stronger home–school collaboration
