Academic Insight โ€“ Movie & Academia #2 ๐ŸŽฅโœจ
The next stop in our journey: Minority Report (2002).

What if you could be arrested for a crime you havenโ€™t committed yet? ๐Ÿšจ
Spielbergโ€™s futuristic thriller explores predictive policing, biometric surveillance, and gesture-based tech long before they entered real-life debates.

In this condensed script + breakdown, we look at:

๐Ÿ” How predictive modeling actually works in data science

๐Ÿ‘ The reality behind biometric scanning & targeted ads

โœ‹ Gesture-based interfaces from MIT to todayโ€™s AR/VR

โš–๏ธ The ethics of punishing future crimes

โžก๏ธ Tell me in the comments: Do you think predictive policing could ever be fair?

๐Ÿš€ New Series Coming Soon! ๐ŸŽฅโœจ

Iโ€™m starting a brand-new video series where Iโ€™ll take popular movies and connect them to real academic fieldsโ€”from neuroscience and linguistics to physics, psychology, and beyond. Weโ€™ll explore the science (and the fiction) behind the stories, asking: Could this actually happen?

๐Ÿ”ฎ The first episode will dive into the indie sci-fi film Listening (2014), which imagines a device that lets us share thoughts directly from brain to brain. Weโ€™ll look at what the movie gets right, what it stretches, and how real neuroscience is already experimenting with brain-computer interfaces that might one day decode our inner speech.

๐Ÿง  Telepathy has always fascinated humanityโ€ฆ but how close are we really?

โžก๏ธ If this excites you, make sure to subscribe so you donโ€™t miss the premiere.
โžก๏ธ If you know a friend who loves movies and science, share this with themโ€”itโ€™s the perfect series for curious minds.

This is just the beginning. Next up: Minority Report, Contagion, Interstellar, Inception, and many more!

๐Ÿ“š Literature Review vs. Systematic Literature Review โ€“ Whatโ€™s the Difference? ๐Ÿ”
Doing academic research? Before you dive into writing, make sure you understand which type of review is right for your work!

๐Ÿ”ธ Literature Review

An exploratory journey through the literature
Identifies themes and connects ideas
Flexible format for building arguments
Can contain bias and subjectivity
๐Ÿ”น Systematic Literature Review (SLR)

A methodological, structured study
Uses strict criteria and search strategies
Reduces bias and increases reproducibility
Synthesizes evidence systematically
๐Ÿ’ก SLRs offer a more rigorous, comprehensive analysisโ€”but both have their place in research!
