Emphasize the need for awareness, empathy, and support in addressing new

phobias in the digital age.
Encourage students to continue exploring the topic and seek help if they or

Note: The duration of each step may vary depending on class dynamics and the

level of student engagement. It is important to allocate additional time for

discussions, questions, and student participation throughout the lesson.

Here are some small-scale project topics/ideas and other possible activities for

studying new phobias:

Research Project: Ask students to choose a specific new phobia and conduct in-
depth research on its causes, symptoms, prevalence, and impact. They can create

a research report or a presentation to share their findings with the class.
Personal Reflections: Have students write personal reflections on their own
experiences or observations related to new phobias. They can discuss how these
phobias have affected them or someone they know and propose strategies for

managing them effectively.
Phobia Awareness Campaign: Divide students into groups and assign them
different new phobias to create awareness campaigns. They can design posters,
infographics, or short videos to educate others about the specific phobia, its

impact, and potential ways to seek support or overcome it.
Guest Speaker or Expert Panel: Invite a guest speaker or panel of experts in

the field of mental health or digital well-being to discuss new phobias with the
students. Students can prepare questions in advance and engage in a meaningful

conversation to deepen their understanding.
Digital Well-being Workshop: Organize a workshop on digital well-being and
invite students to explore different strategies for managing new phobias in a
healthy manner. They can participate in activities such as mindfulness exercises,

setting digital boundaries, or practicing self-care in a digital context.
Role-Play Scenarios: Create role-play scenarios that depict situations related to
new phobias. Assign students roles and have them act out the scenarios,
showcasing different perspectives and demonstrating effective strategies for

addressing and managing the phobias.
