How do you simultaneously teach critical thinking and protect science? Earlier in April Renee Hobbs and Chris Sperry held a webinar with a discussion focusing on teaching about distorted science. It explained how to let students decide what to believe when the science is clear – and imperative.

The webinar took place on April 13 and is now available on YouTube.
