For schools & universities

Critical thinking sessions for students, free for most schools.

Hands-on sessions that teach students to spot bias, question confident AI answers and make better calls. Designed with the Victorian Curriculum in mind and funded by our corporate work.

In the classroom

One double period. A room full of arguments about evidence.

Students learn to question a confident answer, from a teacher, a feed or an AI, by catching the bias in it themselves.

Curriculum fit

Designed with the Victorian Curriculum in mind

Think Before You Swipe draws on Critical and Creative Thinking (Reasoning and Meta-Cognition strands, Levels 9–10). These codes are the Year 9–10 band, so they fit Year 10 best; Years 11–12 build on the same skills. This is alignment, not accreditation.

CodeCovered in session
VCCCTR046Reasoning errors, e.g. false dichotomies
VCCCTR047Suppressed premises and assumptions
VCCCTM051Thinking processes, including cognitive biases
VCCCTQ044Suspending judgement
