Encourage debate and discussion
Debate and discussion have long been great ways to get better at thinking critically. They give us a chance to share ideas, question what we believe, challenge what we think we know, and make good arguments. It's really important to have debate and discussion in schools and all around us to grow a culture where we all think deeply and reflect on our thoughts.
Creating such spaces for talking and thinking is about more than just helping each person improve; it plays a big part in building a strong, democratic society where everyone's views are listened to, respected, and valued. By encouraging debate and discussion, we're not only helping people learn to think better but also making our communities more welcoming, open to different ideas, and good at talking things out constructively.
