The digital Blackout hopes to provide a starting point and a forum for discussion by showcasing the example of one student body that decided to go dark for a week and document the experience. The materials can be used in different ways to fit each class.

Based on a concept by Trent Mitchell and Marty Bellew. Chaptered.

It showcases: 1) The astounding amount of time we devote to social media 2) The face-to-face friendships the internet has maybe devalued 3) The stress brought on by our relentless multi-taking 4) And (yes!) the benefits for a digital world that one rightly misses during a Blackout.
