Team Inspire by Srishti Innovative delivered a transformative Digital Discipline Session at Swami Vivekananda Mission Central School, Nemom, Thiruvananthapuram, marking a critical intervention in modern digital education.

The strategic workshop addressed the complex challenges of technology engagement in an increasingly digital-first world, providing students with practical insights and actionable strategies for navigating online environments safely and productively.
The meticulously crafted session employed an innovative, engagement-driven methodology that demystified the digital landscape for students. Through interactive discussions, real-world scenarios, and activity-based learning, Ajay Sreedhar unpacked critical aspects of digital discipline, including cyber hygiene, online etiquette, and potential digital risks. The program strategically highlighted the importance of mindful screen usage, identifying reliable information sources, and maintaining emotional well-being in a hyper-connected digital ecosystem. Students were introduced to comprehensive strategies for managing screen time, recognizing potential digital traps such as cyberbullying and misinformation, and developing a balanced approach to technology interaction.

By creating a supportive, informative environment, the session enabled students to develop a critical, responsible approach to digital technology. Participants gained invaluable insights into using digital platforms as tools for learning, creativity, and personal growth, rather than sources of distraction or potential harm. This approach represents a progressive educational model that recognizes the importance of digital literacy in modern childhood development, empowering students to become smart, confident, and responsible digital citizens who can effectively navigate the complexities of the digital world.
