Understanding Our Smartphone Compulsions

This session provides an overview of the relationship between the extremely vital task of operating a motor vehicle and our compulsion—in many cases, addiction—to constantly use our smartphones.

The Distracted Brain

Multitasking is a myth. Awareness consists of all our senses working together to keep us upright, knowledgeable of our surroundings, and ready for an encounter with any person, animal or thing that enters our vision-scape. This session explains how the ability to process visual information has some major gaps.

Smartphones on the Road

This session continues to reinforce the idea that multiprocessing is a myth. Most imporantly, using a smartphone while driving is dangerous. While certain activities can multiprocess (chewing gum and walking), activities that require concentration and judgment are not multiprocessed. They are in fact time sliced, where eyes and brain are off the road. The session also delves into road rage induced by the use of smartphones.

Victims' Impact Panel

This session reveals the stories of both victims and perpetrators. It describes how lives are ruined by careless use of smartphones.

Now, What Do I Do?

Before you contact us

  • The number one reason we receive support requests is "I haven't received credit for watching". Most often it's because the user was doing 'something else' and missed an attendance question. The progress tab lists each session, or partial, that you have watched. Any 'session watched' that is flagged with a red x is not counted because an attendance question was missed. That 'session watched' is not counted.
  • You may have limited device resources, especially phones and tablets. Try a restart and shut down unnecessary tasks or apps.
