[ATTW-L] technical report on social connection

[Dragga, Sam]

If you are looking for a striking example of a technical report that students might find pertinent to their lives, consider Our Epidemic of Loneliness and Isolation: The U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory on the Healing Effects of Social Connection and Community.

The report details the impact of social connection and raises important ethical questions about the responsibilities of public and private institutions, the practices of medicine and education, the design of technologies, and the behaviors of families and individuals. It includes a letter of transmittal, a glossary, a variety of figures (infographic, line graph, bar graph, flow chart), a series of recommendations, acknowledgments, and references.

The report is available at https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/surgeon-general-social-connection-advisory.pdf.
