Review Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and explain how each level relates to your experiences with technology. Give specific examples of how your digital experiences relate to each level of need.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs shows how we meet different levels of needs, and technology really helps with that. For the physiological level, I often use food delivery apps when I’m too busy to cook, making it easier to grab a meal. When it comes to safety, I feel more secure knowing my banking apps have two-factor authentication to protect my info. For love and belonging, social media keeps me connected with friends and family, which is essential for my social life. I also find that sharing my achievements on LinkedIn boosts my esteem, making me feel recognized. Finally, I use online courses to learn new skills and pursue my interests, which helps me with self-actualization. Overall, technology supports me at every level of Maslow’s hierarchy.
