ABSTRACT:
The intensification of digital technology use has significantly impacted adolescents’ mental health, especially within the school context. This chapter presents an innovative extension project entitled “Mental Health and Digital Citizenship”, developed with public high school students in Porto Nacional–TO, Brazil. The study is characterized as applied research with a qualitative and descriptive approach, grounded in the integration of teaching, research, and extension. The proposal expands the discussion on conscious technology use by incorporating digital citizenship, emotional self-regulation, and critical media literacy as strategies to promote well-being. Activities included workshops, discussion circles, participatory dynamics, and audiovisual reflective evaluation. Results indicate strengthened socio-emotional skills, increased awareness of screen time, and reduction of behaviors associated with dysfunctional social media use. It is concluded that university-school integrated interventions are effective strategies for promoting mental health and addressing digital vulnerabilities in adolescence.
