Technology, teens and taking responsibility

In this thought-provoking TEDx talk by secondary school student Indigo Mudbhary, we explore the idea of teen distraction and the conscious use of technology.

Indigo frames her talk by sharing that, unlike her peers – and youth all over the world – when the time came to own a phone, she opted for a flip phone over a smart device, in a move that raised plenty of eyebrows and provoked bafflement among her friends.

But, as she explains, despite being a teen symbol of independence and status, the smartphone is also frequently used without intention, and that was something Indigo both wanted to avoid, and to raise greater awareness about.
