In this era of technological advancement, the use of technology, especially gadgets, has increased. Users of this gadget vary from children to adults. Based on a survey from KPAI, 71.3% of children have their own gadgets and this is a fairly large number. Therefore, the use of gadgets in children needs to be considered because we know that gadgets do not only have a positive impact but also a negative impact on children.

To address this issue, SCOPH and SCOPE CIMSA UNEJ held an activity called AFFECTER (Health Effects of Excessive Gadget Use in Children). This activity was held to commemorate National Children's Day 2022.

On August 10, 2022, we uploaded a video talk show on YouTube CIMSA Universitas Jember about the “dangers of gadgets and the role of parents”. This talk show was very special because we invited speakers from India, namely dr. Rhea Rajkumar who is a medical student from India.This talk show has reached more than 100 viewers.

On August 19, 2022, Cinday Kinanti (Member of SCOPH CIMSA UNEJ) and Nahiza Atmaningtyas (Member of SCOPE CIMSA UNEJ) talked about “gadget and children” with RRI PRO Jember Radio. We also held a pre activity training on August 18th 2022, with Valentinus Dave Sugiharto (PHL CIMSA UNEJ) as a speaker.

The offline activity which is the main event held on August 20th at SD Kebonsari 5. We educate grade 1, 2, and 3 students about the “dangers of gadgets” through drama, posters, and we also teach students to make origami, hoping that this origami can replace their gadgets. Overall, the AFFECTER (Health Effects of Excessive Gadget Use in Children) activities went well.
