Why Teaching Thinking is an Educational Priority

Why should understanding our own minds become an educational priority?

In this short film, IMCE Director James Engwell, explores how rapidly changing digital and intelligent environments are reshaping attention, thought, judgement, identity and agency, and why education needs to respond.

The video introduces the case for Experience Studies and Metacognitive Education: helping young people better understand how experience is formed, how influence operates, and how greater awareness can support discernment and self-direction.
