Project Reset Creative Project Contest Winners 2024
From phones and tablets to streaming movies and YouTube, tech and media are everywhere and here to stay. The benefits of living in a digital world are many – from connecting with family and friends, accessing information and entertainment to fostering creativity and so much more – but we also know that there are many negative aspects of using digital media, such as its impact on mental wellness, sleep, personal safety, learning and physical activity. To tackle some of these issues, students in grades 5-8 can participate in the Project Reset Creative Project Contest – an optional component where they create awareness and build messaging around the issues of unbalanced media use, meaningful vs. passive screen use and the impacts these have on health and well-being, through the medium of their choice.
PMH Health Promotion staff and their partners in Mental Health, Public Health and the Brandon School Division and Rolling River School Division are super excited about all the amazing submissions they received from students for the Project Reset Creative Project Contest. We received posters, infographics, skits, speeches, videos and animations, and it was an extremely difficult job to pick the winning projects!
