Working With Screen Addicted Young People December 2026

This webinar shares information about screen addiction in young people. As we know, screen addiction is one of the biggest issues in education in 2026. Some experts go as far as saying it is the biggest societal issue faced by youth. We will discuss the mechanics of screen addiction, and how to support your students to make the best of their educational opportunities alongside screens, rather than being ruled by screens. School leadership may also be interested in our strategies to support families struggling with screen addiction at home.

Aphra had taught Indonesian and Art in P-12 settings for 17 years. Prior to her Master of Teaching (Melbourne University) Aphra was a fine art painter with exhibitions at galleries including 45 Downstairs, Flinders Lane, Melbourne.

In 2024 Aphra completed her Bachelor of Psychological Sciences from Deakin University, and in 2025 completed her Honours in Psychology at Federation University. Her honours thesis focused on the wellbeing of early career female teachers in non metropolitan Victoria.

In 2024 Aphra exhibited paintings along with other art teachers from the Geelong region as part of an art teacher as artist revilatisation project.

Sudah dua puluh tahun Aphra menjadi lancar berbahasa Indonesia. Dia kuliah di Universitas Kristen Satya Wacana, Salatiga Indonesia. Aphra menggunakan keahlian bahasa dan budaya Indonesia di tempat pekerjaannya. Dia percaya komunikasi antara bahasa dan budaya adalah keahlian transformatif.

Karon Grimmer – Administration Workshop

This session was one of the most empowering workshops that I have ever done and I leave the session with extremely useful and relevant tools to use going forward. Thanks so much to Sally for leading us in the session so positively.

Absolutely brilliant information, empowering us with many tools and skills to takeaway and work on. My colleague and I leave full of positive energy about how to approach the challenges of our admin roles.

Classroom Dynamics – the latest strategies and solutions to positive classroom management – Glen Pearsall

I really enjoyed the small group size. The sessions were interactive and we not only saw Glenn demonstrate how he would use strategies himself but we heard from other educators on their challenges and thoughts and also saw video examples from other schools. I find this multi modal style of presentation much more engaging. It was also appreciated to have a copy of the book to take back to school and access to the online platform.

Tania The Geelong College

Just a big Thank you for giving us the opportunity to attend the Critical Agenda Workshop yesterday.  David presented a great program, lots of handy strategies and he was very engaging and supportive. Highly recommended.  I was very happy we did not have to do any Role play’s.
