Experiment Proposal
Question of Interest: Can excessive technology negatively affect your health and intellect?
Hypothesis: As handy as technology could be, it has affected people's well being negatively more so than bettering it.
Operational Definition: What is technology used for? How often is it used? How does it impact your everyday life? What do we mean by "negatively affecting your health"?
Naturalistic Observation: Generally observing the average persons behavior during a days commute alone, 95% out of 100 are shown to be on a phone, tablet or even a musical device. Given the connection between both human and device, are they aware of their surroundings? How many hours a day do they spend with technology? Are our children learning? What is the rate of bullying online and on social media through technology? How much money is it costing the world to keep up to date on technology? Have we become redundant with technology?
