Have you been considering talking to AI Chatbots, if not already using them, to help you manage everyday stressors?

The TLRC invites you to its symposium "To Chat or Not to Chat: Important Considerations in Using AI Chatbots for Emotional and Social Support", which is designed to strengthen UPTC students' efficacy to discern the appropriate use of these tools and its limitations in emotional and social help-seeking as opposed to health-seeking with a trained professional.

We have invited Mr. Juven NiΓ±o A. Villacastin who is now in the last phase of his research for his MA in Communicology at the University of Hawaii, Manoa, U.S.A. Mr. Villacastin is a former instructor of the BA Communication and Media Arts (BACMA) Program at U.P. Mindanao and is now researching Human-Machine Communication especially AI. Speaking from Hawaii, he will introduce us to the: a) various AI tools for social support; b) science behind AI social support; to c)strengthen students' capacity to weigh in on the potentials and pitfalls of AI chatbots in serving the aforementioned purposes.

The event will be held at the AS Conference Hall on 4 December 2024 from 1:30 to 4:00 PM. Students are strongly encouraged to participate via F2F mode. However, those who cannot be accommodated at the venue are welcome to join us via Zoom by using the QR Code that we have included below.

We live in a world where digital media is ubiquitous. Each level of human interaction is now mediated and this could get distracting, if not overwhelming, at times. Unplugging or digital detox is a mechanism for taking a break from our electronic devices, allowing us to tone down the noises that emanate from our digital connectedness.

Today, which is World Mental Health Day, we are reminded that we can make the digital detox that we need.

October 10 is World Mental Health Day. The TLRC is one with our UPTC community in spotlighting conversations about mental health and ensuring a healthy academic environment.

Finding balance amidst the varied demands of the academic life is not an easy task. But we could commit ourselves to nurturing simple healthy habits that can help us find inner peace when confronted by stress.

Angela Duckworth, the author of "Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance" and "The Science and Practice of Self-Control", defines self-discipline as β€œthe ability to suppress prepotent responses in the service of a higher goal."

One of her studies correlating self-discipline and academic performance found that self-discipline, compared to IQ, was a better predictor of academic success among adolescents. Conversely, being impulsive and lack of self-discipline often result in poor performance in school.

Developing self-discipline requires conscious effort. Begin by avoiding or controlling seven impulses --
