We have recorded the lectures from our seminar about how to teach about facts, critical thinking and conspiracy theories. You are welcome to use the videos and the conference kit to arrange your own hub for the Nobel Prize Teacher Summit at any time you choose.
After the 12-minute introduction to the hubs and, a virtual guided tour from the Nobel Prize Museum – watch the video of the lectures together with your group of teachers. Then discuss the proposed questions found in our printable workbook, where you will also find presentations of the speakers.
You can choose to watch the full 2 hour video or select the parts of the programme that are the most relevant for your audience.
