IDEAs Rewired #5: Can apps fix the wellbeing crisis?


Listen Later

Is there a wellbeing crisis across universities? Is technology helping or hindering students’ mental health?

In the final episode of this series, Anna Goodwin and Sophie Cutforth, Student Wellbeing Advisors at Imperial Business School, check in with Lok Yee Liu to explore the impact of technology, AI and apps on students’ wellbeing and the support they receive. We also hear from students at Imperial who tell us whether they’ve ever asked AI for advice.

If you are affected by any of the issues discussed in this episode or would benefit from wellbeing support, you may find the following links helpful:

  • Five Steps to Mental Wellbeing
  • NHS Mental Health Support
  • For Imperial students, visit the Student Support Zone
  • Students at other universities should check the Student Services web pages at their institution for guidance.
  • The articles referenced in the episode are: Beyond the Student Mental Health Crisis: A Collaborative Transatlantic Symposium by Advanced HE, and Student Wellbeing in the AI Era: Stress, Confidence, and Connection – A Global Snapshot by the Higher Education Policy Institute.
