dark patterns, habit summit, nir eyal

Here’s a wonderful half hour talk by Nir Eyal. In it you’ll hear about ‘dark patterns’ that some top names use on their websites to entice you to do things you don’t want to – such as NOT ticking a box to refuse a subscription. Plenty of advice on work/home spaces and disconnecting from media during leisure time. Also, advice on how to reduce time on digital devices.

Welcome

Welcome. Have a look around. It’s all pretty random – just like navigating the digital world!

We’re adding in 2018 a big section about formal and informal education which will include some teaching ideas and resources for English. media and cross-curricular teachers.

But the site is equally intended for everybody. Not only teachers and students but digital citizens across the globe.

Enjoy and sign up for updates. You’ll find a lot of interesting stuff on our Facebook page too.
