The Positive Effects Of Nature On Your Mental Well-Being

Hi, I am Adam Ben ayed, and I will talk to you about my experience with the impact of technology on my life.

I was fond of learning technology and being immersed in electronic games until I was at home. I did not talk much with my family, I did not discuss with them, I did not eat with them, I did not do my homework. I gave up all my roles and became a prisoner of the virtual world.

What is the solution to get out of this prison?

When visiting my grandmother, she placed a basket in front of the door and told us to completely abandon our phones when entering the house, she refused the matter, so she insisted on her request and became certain that I crossed the red lines and began to realize that the family and going out to the green nature is the best solution to treating digital addiction.

Hi,I'm Fatma Ben ayed I will talk to you about five ways to enjoy the positive effects of nature in our life:

1- Walk a lot: We know that walking is good for your heart and muscle.

2- Keep a little note of nature:

We can collect and note everything about our encounters with the outside world.

3- Spend some working hours abroad:

Spending time outside alone or with friends gives an instant boost to stimulating the mind, reducing anxiety.

4- grow plants in your home:

Growing plants at home not only adds beauty to your space, but it also helps clean the air you breathe.

5- Make your diet balanced with more natural elements:

Diet is without a doubt a great way to forge a strong bond with Nature.

Staying close to nature, observing all the small and important elements in it, and appreciating it from its essence, is self-medicating and self-healing. Even if most of what we do is talk and no action, we can learn a lot from connecting with our natural surroundings. It gives us a perspective for a healthier life, motivation to keep moving forward, and energy to keep trying. Because there is no more primitive and firm bond in us than our love of nature and nature's care for us.

Digital education in the era of COVID-19: opportunity or disaster?

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We all had to adapt to and deal with a completely new reality, and it wasn't always easy as the modification covered every aspect of life including the education system.Perhaps the first problem facing education is how to continue studying under a comprehensive quarantine?All schools and universities had to come up with solutions, the most important of which was to resort to distance education.Some creative teachers have already adapted to the situation using open resources, live sessions on Twitch or YouTube, chatting with students via Discord, scheduling via Padlet, and using some virtual learning platforms.However, the biggest challenge is that distance education imposes new educational practices. You assume that the teacher is composed and has undergone extensive training to possess the skills of distance teaching and the use of modern tools in teaching. As for older teachers who are not accustomed to working on the Internet, this work will not be easy, it also requires a lot of work and organization because it is a situation that is not Preceded.On the students' side, distance education may be a radical and attractive solution, but it will highlight the differences between students and may also lead to inequality among students, as it will be difficult to support all students to develop the digital skills necessary to pursue online courses due to their lack. To equipment such as a computer or no internet. . Only wealthy students will study while students from needy families will find it difficult to enroll in virtual classes.

I have problems with learning difficulties, however, I participated in the Digital Twinning project "Digital Citizenship in Media and Education" under the supervision of my dear teacher Mrs. Hayat bin Ahmed, who encouraged me a lot. I did not find it difficult to communicate with my friends on the project and exchanged ideas and proposals with them

I participated in Professor David’s workshop on “Digital Access and Inclusion” and discovered that there are many applications on the Internet that help children with some difficulties like mine.

I thank everyone who helped me in the digital citizenship project in the media and education, and I encourage all children with special needs to participate in such projects as they stimulate, educate and developmental abilities and make you meet new friends from all over the world.
