Another podcast and site update

March 16, 2020 By DegreeofFreedom in Filed Under: Critical Thinking

In addition to last week’s interview on the Independent Curriculum podcast, I also did the inaugural interview for Online Community in Higher Education by the folks at Yellowdig. During a global crisis, not to mention a national election, it’s vital we keep our wits about us and critical-thinking provides 2500 years of insight on how to do so.

Frequent visitors may have also noticed some updates to the Degree of Freedom site as we get closer to the launch date (April 7) of Critical Thinking Essentials. In addition to adding new parts of the site dedicated to the upcoming book, I’ve also added a page on LogicCheck, my election year project on how to put critical-thinking skills to use to better understand the news of the day and the world around us.

More updates, and regular postings to come. Anyone interested in subscribing to the Degree of Freedom newsletter, an issue of which will be coming out this week, can subscribe using the field to the right.

Hang in there!
