“The course was engaging and well structured (...) Going through a mock workshop (simulating what it would be like as a participant), and practising presenting was vital for my learning.”

“Understanding the research around digital distraction is empowering to me, as I will be able to have conversations with many user groups on campus about it (students, faculty, staff, etc.).”

“The structure of the course ('categories', 'strategies') has given me language to support students beyond them saying 'I'm stressed and distracted, and I don't know how to deal with it.'”
