Overview

Artificial intelligence and digital technology are now an important part of academic life. They can support learning, communication and productivity, but may also contribute to digital fatigue, information overload, reduced concentration, academic pressure and uncertainty about responsible technology use.

This intermediate online professional learning course explores the relationship between AI, digital wellbeing and mental health in higher education. It provides practical guidance for recognising technology-related stress and supporting students to develop healthier, more sustainable approaches to studying in digitally enabled environments.

Learners will explore how excessive screen use, constant connectivity, online comparison, digital distractions, AI-related uncertainty and academic-integrity concerns can affect motivation, confidence, attention and emotional wellbeing. The course also considers how these pressures may affect students with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression and other mental-health or neurodivergent profiles.

The course focuses on inclusive, ethical and supportive practice. Learners will develop skills to recognise potential signs of digital burnout, academic stress, technology-related anxiety and disengagement, while understanding the importance of professional boundaries and appropriate signposting. It does not prepare learners to diagnose or provide clinical treatment

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
