"FEELING POWERLESS IN A “POWER-FULL” WORLD" by Kaely Miller and Carol Duerksen
YOUTH GROUP LESSON 63
MATERIALS AND ADVANCE PREPARATION:
1 Copies of the story “Why do I feel so alone?” for each participant
2 Highlighter pens for each student
3 Contact a girl ahead of time and give her the story to read to the class. Ask her to be familiar with it so she can read it well.
4 Paper and pens

SESSION OUTLINE
FOCUS:

Ask the student you contacted prior to class to begin the session by reading the story.

CONNECT WITH THE CONTENT:
Hand out the story and highlighters. Say: Now that you’ve heard the story, I’d like for you to read and reflect on it. Use the highlighters to indicate anything that you really agree or disagree with as you read it.

REFLECT:
Discuss the areas that youth highlighted, and discuss the following questions:
1 How does technology provide a way for us to avoid personal communication?
2 Has it become part of our nature to use technology in this way? Or is something unnatural about it?
3 Give examples of when we should decrease our use of technology.
4 What are some realistic ways that we can use less technology and more personal communication?
