Critical Thinking: get enlightened!

Reviewing the Concepts

What should you take away from this course?

Information you encounter may contain defects. Those defects may be purely accidental or secretly intentional. Never proceed without all the facts. Consult multiple sources and seek out superior sources. Remember anyone can publish anything on the Internet. Be aware there may be bias, misrepresentations, or ulterior motives working behind information encountered; the hidden agenda might be to sell you something or to exploit your ignorance. Try to see "the bigger picture," performing additional research as necessary until your needs are truly satisfied. Above all know librarians are your allies in your struggle against disinformation: always start your search for knowledge at the library!

If you want, you may now take a quiz to test your knowledge.
