Nowadays many people have to "sift through"a sea of information before making their decisions, haven't they ? They have even coined the term "infobesity" to refer to this daily difficulty they have to handle "infobesity" trying to avoid stressful moments. Have you listened to this word "infobesity" before?

How about you? How do you react when there is a" sea of decisions" before you? How do you feel when you are often bombarded with a lot of information and you have to make your choices? Are there any ways to improve your chances to make the right choices? If you click on the link below you are going to read about "Three ways to handle "infobesity", ok?

Now you can watch this short video(4m'29) from TedEd created by Samantha Agoos and narrated by Addison Anderson which is entitled: "Five Tips to improve your Critical Thinking".Do not forget to write down the 5 tips so that later on you can not only think about them but you can also discuss them with your friends and you can comment them at the bottom of this post as well, can't you?
For Me, It Is Very Important To Pay Attention And Select Sources Of Information, If U Don't Do That. U May Suffer From Infobesity And Make Wrong Decisions. In General, When I Am At School, Teachers Can Help And Guide Me To The Right And Necessary Sides And Tools. Fortunately, My Classmates And I Have The Chance Of Practising Our Critical Thinking. After Watching The Video I Think That Tip Number 5 Is The Most Important One Because It Is Really Necessary To Consider Many Points Of Views To Get The Best One.
Hello J.P
I'm glad to know you've been practising your "critical thinking".It's no picnic to sift through a"sea of information"!
Take care !
A lot of information makes me discombobulated indeed. However , you must read some and select what it is interesting to invest your time and make the right choices . You must give a limit to yourself so that you will have time to stay with your family or study what you want.
Hello Nina.
Pick and Choose! That's the secret!
Take Care.
