Gray Matters: Critical Thinking – Part 1 (Virtual)

EmailPrint

This class in learning and applying critical thinking skills has been divided into two parts with one offered in the fall and the other in the spring. Each half will be concerned with different issues and will emphasize different aspects of our lives. Part I concentrates on current events including truth, lying, and memory. Can we trust eyewitnesses? We will explore the psychology of advertising; strange creatures and ghosts; how culture influences perception; sleep, evolution, faith healers, UFOs; and psychics. We are constantly asked to decide what to believe and what to disgard. These days it can be difficult to know what is true. Scienific evidence is the best source for answers.

Please note: Must have an active OLLI membership to enroll in this course.

There are still openings remaining at this time.
