Critical Thinking & Misinformation Resilience for Adults

A practical programme that helps adult educators teach critical thinking and information judgement in everyday contexts. It focuses on how adults form opinions, why misinformation spreads, and how to build simple, repeatable verification habits—without turning the topic into abstract theory or political debate.

Adult education trainers, facilitators, programme coordinators, and organisations working with diverse adult groups (including mixed digital confidence, different educational backgrounds, and mixed media habits).

By the end of the training, participants will have learned:

• How misinformation works: common manipulation techniques, emotional triggers, and cognitive biases
• How to teach source evaluation and verification routines through realistic scenarios
• How to design learning activities that build “information habits” (not just one-time awareness)
• How to facilitate sensitive discussions safely and productively in diverse adult groups
• How to create simple learner materials: checklists, mini-cases, reflection prompts, and practice tasks

It strengthens adults’ ability to make informed decisions and reduces vulnerability to manipulation in daily life. Educators leave with a ready-to-use set of activities and facilitation approaches that work across audiences and formats.
