Bootcamp: Critical Thinking and Global Democracy

July 16, 2024 1069

Information literacy is at the heart of fostering critical thinking skills, which are essential for questioning the status quo and developing informed opinions. Educators play a pivotal role in teaching these skills, equipping students to preserve and promote democracy within society. Learn from and engage with experienced librarians, behavioral scientists, and others at Sage’s fifth annual Critical Thinking Bootcamp. ET. This online event will cover:  

  • The role of critical thinking, education, and democracy
  • The intersection of democracy, science, and critical thinking
  • How social media is leveraged to work against democracy 

Sage, the parent of Social Science Space, is a global academic publisher of books, journals, and library resources with a growing range of technologies to enable discovery, access, and engagement. Believing that research and education are critical in shaping society, 24-year-old Sara Miller McCune founded Sage in 1965. Today, we are controlled by a group of trustees charged with maintaining our independence and mission indefinitely.
