I recently saw this video in an intro to psychology course at the high school I work at, and thought it was definitely worth sharing here. It's an episode called "Brain Hacking" from the television show, 60 Minutes. The episode explores how tech companies are programming phones, phone apps, and social media platforms to be increasingly addicting.
The video pairs well, I think, with a previous post that you'll want to check out if you haven't already, "The double-edged sword of technology."
Meaningful reflections, stories, ideas, advice, and resources for high school and college undergraduate students. We're exploring history, philosophy, critical thinking, the trades, business, careers, entrepreneurship, college majors, financial literacy, the arts, the social sciences, test prep, and a whole lot more. Join the conversation.
