    Digital Downtime Contract

    Simran Thakkar
    February 18, 2020

    Introduction—There is absolutely no doubt that I am addicted to technology. No matter if I have a lot to do


    or nothing to do, my go-to is my phone or my computer. If my habits continue, nothing will change and my
    screen time will continue to rise. For the week of Digital Downtime, I’m going to put a stop to my usage and
    use the day to my advantage, instead of just wasting it away with technology.

    Part 1—Technologies and activities that are expressly and completely prohibited
    - Twitter
    - Snapchat
    - Instagram
    - Netflix
    - YouTube
    - Disney +
    - Prime Video
    - Balls
    - Candy Crush
    - Sudoku

    Part 2—Technologies that are permissible according to their purpose of use


    - Various Google products and MCPS Classroom to complete assigned school work
    - Khan Academy to complete daily SAT practice
    - TV from 7:00pm-8:00pm on weekdays to watch Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy

    Part 3—Goals for the week

    A. Quantifiable
    - Exercise every day
    - Read for two hours a day
    - Sleep for more than six hours a night

    B. Unquantifiable
    - Build stronger relationships with other people during school (not just my friends)
    - Finish all of my homework
    - Take time to just talk with my family instead of locking myself in my room
