TeenToks: Empowering Mental Health Discussions for Teens
Community Review for TeenToks
My Take
TeenToks is a well-intentioned resource that brings awareness to mental health topics for teenagers. However, it lacks the engaging features that make other social media platforms attractive to teens. While the content is educational, the app's passive nature might limit its appeal to students. The app could benefit from allowing users to interact more and post their own content, creating a more dynamic experience. The quality of videos varies, but many are helpful in addressing tough topics.
How I Use It
I would use TeenToks as a supplementary tool for social-emotional learning (SEL) in my classroom. I could assign students to watch certain videos, discuss their reactions, and share their thoughts in class. This could also serve as a starting point for students to create their own TeenToks-style videos on mental health topics, providing them an opportunity to research, learn, and present information to their peers.
