Senior Thesis Title: Persuasive Technology: the Cigarette of the 21st Century
Brief Description of Senior Thesis: The goal of my thesis is to give my audience a better understanding of the dangers that arise when smartphone companies employ tactics designed to keep us engaged on our screens for as long as possible. This issue has become increasingly pertinent in recent years because the relationship we have with our phones has shifted from one of convenience to one of necessity. As time continues, the choices we make concerning technological advancement will require Christians to be knowledgeable and informed as we approach difficult decisions which require wisdom.
