RE: School Sucks! 5 Classes That Would Change Everything

in #life8 years ago

Critical Thinking class... not one class but on going taught at an early age right along with Math, Reading, etc.

Teach kids and then adults logical fallacies, etc. I actually believe this is one of the most important things we could ever do. A lot of people have Utopian ideas they believe can save the world and solve "big" problems, but they all have one common thing that can stop them. That thing is a population that for the majority has never been taught critical thinking. They've heard the words and they may have heard a few speeches about it, but they don't TRULY understand it. If the population at large understood this then I do believe the world would be a very different place and some of these "big" ideas to solve "big" problems might actually be achievable.
