Checking in again! How far through Galactic Season 3 are you? For the next Mind Trap; reblogs appreciated!

@chidgey Big summer is well and truly here. We've had a pretty good run of cooler days, so I'm okay with that. :)

@trinsec Definitely! And there's the fact that critical thinking may make kids more skeptical of advertising. Might mess with them becoming good consumers... I don't think there's a nefarious plot, but I could imagine it'd be easier for all concerned if the kids weren't too skeptical.

@trinsec Maybe we weren't so badly off! But I really, really enjoy being able to look up facts in near real time, though. I find myself not wanting to go back.

I thought teaching kids critical thinking at school might help inoculate them to conspiracy garbage. Maybe it would? I guess it hasn't really been tried yet.

Remember in the pre-internet days when you had to go to the library to lookup facts? Or your own (outdated) set of encyclopaedias?

I guess we just didn't know any better at the time, and lived with ambiguity! Hard to imagine now.
