Inquiry Project: Social Media and Teenage Mental Health
國際視野探究專題：社群媒體與青少年心理健康

Most teenagers use social media daily. Seeing idealized and beautified posts often leads to the “Fear of Missing Out” (FOMO), a pressing issue worldwide. In the Grade 11 international education project, instructor Ian guided students in exploring the causes and effects of FOMO, connecting it with self-image, identity, social interaction, and comparison. They also learned ways to manage FOMO.
Through thoughtful inquiries, discussions, and reflection, students became more aware of their digital habits and strived for better digital well-being. In future projects, students will work to raise awareness about mental health and promote a more balanced digital life among teens.

大多數青少年每天使用社群媒體，而看到經過美化與理想化的貼文時，往往會引發錯失恐懼症（FOMO）。在本次國際視野探究專題中，十一年級學生透過文章與影片的分析，深入探討FOMO的成因與影響，並將其與自我形象、身份認同以及社交互動等概念相連結。透過探究與討論，學生更了解自己的數位行為，也開始思考如何培養良好的數位習慣，並致力於促進個人的數位健康。接下來的專題將聚焦於提升心理健康意識，鼓勵青少年建立更平衡且有意識的數位生活方式。
