Lesson objectives

To warn against an unhealthy relationship with technologies
To value face to face communication and family time
To be able to reduce the time when we use digital technologies

Family dinner - an important time to build relationships with our relatives. However, the traditional institution of family has been changed because of the influence of technologies. This funny TV commercial shows how we are manipulated and distracted by devices and how, instead of talking to our children, we write e-mails to our colleagues.
The #DeviceFreeDinner attempts to point out that technologies around us are stealing more and more of our attention during family time.
