Safety vs Surveillance: What’s The Real Reason We Use Location Sharing? | The Simple Learning Tool We May Be Leaving Behind

Safety vs Surveillance: What’s The Real Reason We Use Location Sharing? Location sharing can feel like a simple safety net, but we look at what happens when “peace of mind” turns into constant, obsessive monitoring. From parents tracking young adult children to couples sharing this real-time info, we explore how this technology can protect, pressure or slowly erode trust depending on how it’s used. Guests:  Randi Smith, psychologist, professor, Metropolitan State University of Denver Sarah Clark, co-director, C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health, faculty member, Department of Pediatrics, University of Michigan - Ann Arbor.   The Simple Learning Tool We May Be Leaving Behind In an era dominated by keyboards, it is easy to think handwriting is a skill of the past. But are we shortchanging our brains by abandoning this ability? Our guests this week explore the critical cognitive benefits of handwriting and discuss how the physical act of writing by hand significantly boosts literacy, memory retention, and idea generation. Guests:  Danny Oppenheimer, professor of decision sciences, Carnegie Mellon University Virginia Wise Berninger, professor emerita, University of Washington Linktr.ee | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | SpotifyFacebook: @ViewpointsOnlineX: @viewpointsradioInstagram: @viewpointsradioFull ArchiveContact UsAffiliates & National Syndication Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
