There are no prescriptions
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to healthy tech habits, so we won't tell you how much screen time is too much.
The objective of the program is to help you clarify your intentions for your tech use, then give you a powerful toolkit to stick to them for the long-term.
Peers hold you accountable
Changing tech habits is easier when you have others to lean on. As such, social accountability is a focal point of Project Reboot. Through discussion groups, screen time challenges, and accountability check-ins, Project Reboot students have ample opportunities to leverage the help of others to hit their screen time goals.
Your effort is rewarded
By completing daily challenges, reducing your screen time, and participating in discussions, you earn raffle tickets.
Prizes Include:
Kindle e-readers
Headspace subscriptions
Smart alarm clocks
REI gift cards
MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi, I'm Dino Ambrosi
I'm an ex-social media addict with a mission to help others build healthy relationships with their devices.
The internet has given us a powerful set of tools, but most people receive no education on how to engage with them in an intentional, constructive manner. As one of the first people to get on social media in middle school, I received no guidance for my online behavior. As a result, I developed an addiction that negatively impacted my college experience.
It took me years of trial and error to build healthy digital habits, but today my devices help me live a better life. I want to give incoming college students the resources, best practices, and the space to discuss digital wellness that I never had in order to help them succeed in college and beyond.
Curious how your digital habits scale over time?
The average 18 year old is on pace to spend 25 years of their remaining life engaging in online entertainment
