Digital wellness can be defined as “thepursuit of an intentional and healthy relationship with technology and digital media” [3], or morebroadly as “the impact of digital engagement on human wellbeing” [4]. As a rapidly growingfield of research, digital wellness seeks to foster a more mindful, balanced, and reflective use ofdigital technologies. Burr et al., [4] emphasizes that digital wellness is not a standalone concept,but is one deeply intertwined with overall wellbeing, particularly as the boundaries betweenonline and offline life become increasingly blurred.

Instructorstraining engineering students in information-seeking will find little guidance about how to adjusttheir pedagogical approaches for effective online learning. The small body of research conductedin this area often relies upon self-report data and tends to be dated [6].

Students who are more interested in and motivatedby the social impact of engineering do not always identify as engineers [25] because of theemphasis on technical engineering work [13].

With this increased prominence of engineering as a K-12discipline, education researchers have begun to explore the outcomes of engineering educationin the context of K-12 schools. One review of P-12 engineering students from 2000 - 2015documented an increase in engineering education research during this period, highlighting anumber of themes within the literature
