Appendix F “Facilitating elements” of communication: Year 11 students ranking the risks of misunderstanding

Abstract

It is commonly advocated that students should be educated to become responsible citizens. Improving their critical sense is one of the main arguments used. In the perspective of life-long education, they should be put in contact with scientific media, which they should learn how to “read”, in the broad sense. How not to subscribe to such wishes? All the more so that, in addition, motivation is expected to be a side benefit.
