Alumni Progress Club: The Vital Importance of Critical Thinking
Part of the personal development lecture series from the Alumni Progress Club
Not so long ago, journalists and publishers fact checked all accessible information. But now we’re living in times where anyone can share thoughts and views about anything – and where misinformation is rife. So in an age where anyone can publish, how do you tell truth from lies?
Prof Dr Michael Vlerick talks about the importance of critical thinking – and how we should use reasoning to assess everything we see, read and hear.
This event is one of ten personal development lectures to be hosted by the Alumni Progress Club. Join us for an evening of enlightenment and networking.
