Question Everything
We teach the discipline to refrain from accepting information at face value. We want our learners to ask questions to deepen their understanding. What evidence supports this? Are there alternative perspectives? So Exciting!
Analyse Assumptions
Analysing assumptions means carefully examining the beliefs or ideas considered true or taken for granted and examining whether they are valid or accurate. It involves questioning why certain things are true and exploring whether those beliefs are based on evidence or assumptions.
Evaluate Evidence
In a world bombarded with information from various sources such as the internet, social media, and news outlets, it's crucial to sift through this sea of data and identify what's trustworthy and what's not. By evaluating evidence, you're essentially arming yourself with the tools to separate fact from fiction, truth from opinion.
Recognise Biases
Ultimately, recognising biases empowers you to be a more discerning and independent thinker, capable of navigating the world's complexities with confidence and clarity. It's like unlocking a superpower that can guide you in your quest for knowledge and understanding. So, embrace your inner detective and let the evidence lead you to new insights and discoveries!
Logical Reasoning
Logical reasoning is a methodical approach used to reach valid conclusions. It includes critical thinking, analysing information and making informed judgements based on evidence and reasoning. In everyday situations, logical reasoning assists us in problem-solving, decision-making and grasping complex concepts.
Embrace Complexity
Embracing complexity involves being comfortable with ambiguity, contradictions, and the idea that there may not always be a clear-cut answer or a straightforward path to knowledge. It often requires critical thinking, open-mindedness, and a willingness to explore different perspectives and possibilities.
