Topic: Critical Thinking
In this session we will dive into critical thinking: cognitive biases, motivated reasoning, logical fallacies, correlation vs causation. The goal for the class is to have LOTS of discussion. We need your thoughts! We’ll have fun! Then we will go to El Cholo for Happy Hour! What could be better? I mean seriously.
PLUS we will have TWO SURPRISE VIDEOS created by folks related to the class.
Spotify Podcast:
I created a Spotify podcast called “Dave’s Candid Philosophy,” to make learning philosophy fun and enjoyable. Here are episodes on critical thinking to get you in the mood. It is fun hopefully humorous. Plus we want you in the mood.
