[Blindtlk] AT the Intersection of Money Identification and Human behavior

[Hyde, David W. (ESC)]

Among the things I have taught to students is how to deal with money. I have always encouraged them to sort currency in line, before they leave the checkout station. My advice is always to do it then, no matter the line behind them.

Hi all,

Below my name, please find a link to a truly fascinating YouTube video. Note that the blind people and clerks depicted here are actors and that this is an experiment in human behavior. How will bystanders react when a blind person is shortchanged because he or she cannot identify US currency? While it is nice that we can get free money identifiers from the BEP, how likely are we to use them when we are handed change and people are waiting behind us in line?
