Question

Describe how your screen time has been impacted by social distancing. Has your opinion about "being online" changed as well?

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The term "screen time" refers to the time when people use electronic devices such as computers, smartphones and televisions. During the socially distant and restrictive measures that we are currently experiencing, we can consider that we became more dependent on these devices which caused our screen time to increase significantly. In my case, I usually spend more time using these devices than before, since it is not possible to do any activity outside the home. In this case, the sense of "being online" has changed for me, since before, we stayed online only when we were unoccupied. However, nowadays, we are online to work, to study, to communicate with people and for entertainment, which allows us to be online all the time and not just in a few moments.
