“…For example, Pedaste and Leijen (2018) provide a brief discussion of how a variety of digital technologies, including VR/AR, could support lifelong learning, self-fulfilment and openness to new opportunities. Karime et al (2012) offer tentative evidence pertaining to whether interactive video game-based learning could improve certain cognitive skills (e.g., memory) in students. And Baras et al (2016) describe how smartphones could automatically detect a student's mood and help with the management of workload through increased awareness of stress and emotional understanding.…”

This article presents the first thematic review of the literature on the ethical issues concerning digital well-being. The term ‘digital well-being’ is used to refer to the impact of digital technologies on what it means to live a life that is good for a human being. The review explores the existing literature on the ethics of digital well-being, with the goal of mapping the current debate and identifying open questions for future research. The review identifies major issues related to several key social domains: healthcare, education, governance and social development, and media and entertainment. It also highlights three broader themes: positive computing, personalised human–computer interaction, and autonomy and self-determination. The review argues that three themes will be central to ongoing discussions and research by showing how they can be used to identify open questions related to the ethics of digital well-being.

An application of the initial phase of IEEE P7010 recommended practice to a set of cases FIRSTNAME SURNAME* First author's affiliation, an Institution with a very long name FIRSTNAME SURNAM Second author's affiliation, possibly the same institutionThe accelerated adoption of digital technologies by people and communities results in a close relation between, on one hand, the state of individual and societal well-being and, on the other hand, the state of the digital technologies that underpin our life experiences. The ethical concerns and questions about the impact of such technologies on human well-being become more crucial when data analytics and intelligent competences are integrated. To investigate how learning technologies could impact human well-being considering the promising and concerning roles of Learning Analytics (LA), we apply the initial phase of the recently produced IEEE P7010 Well-being Impact Assessment (WIA), a methodology and a set of metrics, to allow the digital well-being of a set of LA-supported educational technologies to be more comprehensively tackled and evaluated. We posit that the use of IEEE P7010 well-being metrics could help identify where educational technologies supported by LA would increase or decrease well-being, providing new routes to technological innovation in LA research.

Objective: was to identify studies in the scientific literature in which the serious game is used as a strategy to prevent and/or treat childhood obesity.Method: an integrative review. The search in the databases resulted in 466 studies, 17 of which were elected for analysis.Results: the use of serious games for health promotion could positively influence children's health and promote behavior changes, as well as encourage healthier habits.Conclusion: the use of serious games can be a powerful strategy for child health education. Considering the use of technology by children, we believe in the potential of these resources to change this population's behavior, particularly with regard to childhood obesity. DESCRIPTORS: Pediatric nursing. Obesity. Medical informatics. Video games. Método: revisão integrativa. A busca nas bases de dados resultou em 466 estudos e elegeu-se 17 trabalhos para análise. USO DE SERIOUS GAMESResultados: a utilização de serious games para a promoção da saúde pode refletir positivamente na saúde das crianças, bem como promover a mudança de comportamentos e estimular hábitos saudáveis.Conclusão: o uso de serious games pode ser uma estratégia potente para a educação em saúde de crianças. Considerando a utilização de tecnologias pelo público infantil, acredita-se no potencial desses recursos para a mudança de comportamentos dessa população. Método: una revisión integradora. La búsqueda en las bases de datos resultó en 466 estudios y se eligieron 17 trabajos para análisis.Resultados: la utilización de serious games para la promoción de la salud puede impactar positivamente en la salud de los niños y niñas, así como promover el cambio de comportamientos y estimular hábitos saludables.Conclusión: el uso de serious games puede ser una estrategia potente para la educación en salud de niños y niñas. Considerando la utilización de tecnologías por el público infantil, se cree en el potencial de esos recursos para cambiar comportamientos de esa población.
