Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore the current situation, impact and coping strategies of secondary school children’s social and emotional development in the digital era. With the rapid development of science and technology, digital technology has been deeply integrated into the daily life of secondary school children, and has become an indispensable part of their social interaction, learning and entertainment. This paper analyzes the new forms of social interactions of secondary school children in the digital era, and also focuses on the changes in information acquisition and cognitive development of secondary school children in the digital era, as well as the impact of information overload on the critical thinking and problem solving abilities of secondary school children. Through in-depth analysis of the dual impact of the digital era on secondary school children’s social and emotional development, this paper reveals the current challenges, such as cyberbullying and misinformation, and also points out the opportunities, such as providing rich learning resources and cultivating innovative thinking skills. It aims to provide reference for education policy makers, educators and parents to jointly promote the healthy growth of secondary school children in the digital era.
