Learning Goal: I’m working on a population health writing question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.
(This is exactly in details what you need to know about this assignment)
This one is for a write up on the Netflix documentary mentioned in the brain study slideset called The Social Dilemma (including the bonus features) or, if you do not have access to Netflix, any of the free podcasts on the topic with the creator (also listed in the brain study slideset).
the instructions are below:
This needs to be a minimum TWO page write up, 12 point font, singlespaced. This needs to be in your own words, taking a review online and using someone else’s language is plagiarism (plagiarism filters are turned on with this submission).
The first page should be a detailed description of what you learned from the documentary (if it’s clear you just watched the trailer or read about it online and didn’t actually watch it you will not get points). Integrate what you’ve learned about the brain, specifically how social media affects the limbic system and dopaminergic reward system as well as the prefrontal cortex.
The second page should detail dialogue you are to have with the peer or family member. Preferably somebody who has a diametrically opposed opinion on whether social media is harmful to society or not. Don’t make this a debate, because debates are about winning. This is not about winning, this is about converging on a truth (called dialectic), specifically, relative truth based on the facts as we currently know them in order to make an informed, logical and empirical decision about our safety and well-being.
