This course introduces digital well-being as an intentional, balanced, and sustainable approach to the use of digital technologies. Students explore how digitalisation affects well-being at the individual, organisational and societal levels and how these effects can be proactively shaped through not only more awareness but design, governance, and use of technology. Digital well-being is investigated from both research and practice perspectives.The course addresses well-being research frameworks, technostress, and digital and planetary well-being, including sustainability challenges related to service-driven consumer behavior and AI use. Students examine well-being technologies (e.g. wearables, carbon footprint calculators, screentime tracking etc.) and learn how action competence in digital-physical environments can support both human and planetary well-being.The course combines lectures and exercises. Students complete a digital well-being strategy focusing on an individual, organisation, or digital product/service.
