Episode 338: Headmaster’s Homeroom: Worldview: Guest; Judith Eckert

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Judith Eckert, a seasoned special education teacher, to explore a growing concern in our education system: the impact of online education technology (edtech) on student behavior and classroom dynamics.

While edtech brings undeniable benefits—like personalized learning and improved digital literacy—experts such as Dr. Michael Rich, Dr. Rebecca Jackson, and Dr. Nicholas Kadaras are sounding the alarm about its darker side. Increased screen exposure is being linked to a rise in emotional and behavioral challenges among students, including anxiety, depression, aggression, and difficulties with social interaction and emotional regulation.

Judith shares her front-line experience in the classroom, where she’s witnessed a dramatic shift in student needs and behaviors—particularly in the areas of communication, focus, and emotional balance. Drawing connections to broader concerns like those raised in the Wyeth vs. Levine case, she stresses the importance of accountability, transparency, and intervention.

But this episode isn’t just a warning—it’s a call to action. We dive into practical, research-based solutions like the 20-20-20 Rule, ways students can self-monitor screen use, and how parents and educators can partner to create healthier, more balanced learning environments.

Join us as we unpack the real costs of digital learning and chart a hopeful path forward—where education supports both academic growth and emotional wellbeing.
