Research shows that happiness in life is less about what you do and more about why you do it. When your actions have purpose, they lead to positive results -- both for you and the world. Help students use the power of the internet to turn their personal passions into positive impact.
Students will be able to:
-
Explain what it means to find your purpose and why it is beneficial.
-
Consider different ways that people have used their digital footprint to make a positive impact on the world and whether you would do something similar.
-
Reflect on what your own purpose might be, including a problem you want to solve and how you might go about solving it.
