Abstract
Mindfulness practices are part of responsive education. Institutional change comes slowly and can be at a cost for the mental and physical wellbeing of young people. The internet of things (IoT) makes knowledge access simple. Young people can bypass the traditional pathways to knowing and have the skills to forge new worlds online that more readily match their interests and personal preferences. Identity issues are both shaped and made more complex through knowing more. The benefits for young people who struggle with identity can flow through access to likeminded communities. The challenges are in the process which can lead to alienation from traditional support systems. Wokeness is part of the world of now and the reality confronting traditional societal norms.
