TCT 004: Why Critical Thinking Matters | Part 3: Civic Duty




The Critical Thinker Podcast (Video) show

Summary: This week on the podcast we're asking two questions: What is the role of critical thinking in supporting and sustaining liberal democratic societies? (My answer: A Big One!) Do we, as citizens, have a civic duty to cultivate our critical thinking faculties? (My answer: YES!) I also talk about the sorry state of critical thinking education in the public school system, and a distressing trend I'm seeing in colleges and universities.
