They’re Installing DANGEROUS Mind-Scanning Devices in Classroom #shorts
122,765In some schools in China, students are now wearing special headbands that track their focus during class. These devices use sensors to read brain activity and measure how attentive each student is. The information is then sent to the teacher, and sometimes even to the students' parents.
The goal of this technology is to help students stay focused and improve learning. If a student seems distracted, the teacher can step in right away. Some classrooms also use cameras that scan students’ faces to guess their emotions, like boredom or confusion, giving teachers more ways to adjust their lessons.
However, not everyone agrees with this approach. Many people feel that these devices are too invasive and could make children feel anxious. Some parents worry that being constantly watched could take away from the joy of learning.
In fact, after public concerns, some schools have stopped using these devices. They decided to take a closer look at how the data is used and whether it's really helpful.
While these tools are part of a larger effort to bring new technology into classrooms, they also raise important questions. People are now debating whether tracking attention like this helps students—or puts too much pressure on them.
