Is Your Phone Listening to You?
A2–B1 Video-Based ESL Lesson on Privacy, Technology & Critical Thinking

Is Your Phone Listening to You? is a complete video-based ESL lesson for A2–B1 learners that explores the common belief that smartphones secretly listen to conversations.

Through a realistic scenario and carefully scaffolded tasks, students learn to:

• distinguish fact, belief, and uncertainty

• express opinions with reasons

• discuss privacy vs. convenience in everyday technology

The lesson follows a forensics-style approach, encouraging learners to analyse information instead of simply accepting claims.
