WE BRING COMMUNITIES FROM DISCORD TO DISCOURSE
OUR MISSION
REVOLUTIONIZE EDUCATION BY SCALING CRITICAL THINKING INSTRUCTION AT INSTITUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD
A FAMILIAR PROBLEM
We’re motivated by a problem with many symptoms:
- Politics is polarized, and group-think is rife
- People feel overloaded with headlines, clips, and threads
- Students are afraid to speak up in class, and educators don’t have a fix
What is the root cause?
Many say that people don’t listen, and don’t think or communicate clearly. So, engaging difficult topics and disagreements (especially political ones) will always, inevitably, end in frustration and even anger.
OUR DIAGNOSIS GOES DEEPER
Most people– including nearly half of all college graduates– never learned how to listen, think, or communicate with precision.
- We don’t know how to listen
- We don’t know how to think clearly
- We don’t know how to communicate about controversial issues
A SHARED TOOLKIT
At ThinkerAnalytix, we attack the problem head-on by developing tools for the next generation of business, civic, and social leaders: our students.
Our mission? To revolutionize education to teach careful, clear reasoning.
We envision a world in which students have the skills and confidence to:
- Move from fallacious thinking to thoughtful, logical reasoning
- Diffuse heat and emotion to make room for cool, careful listening
- Identify their own confusion, and engage to learn more deeply
To do this, we need a shared touchstone– not a shared set of beliefs, but a shared set of tools that we use to discuss and debate what we believe. That’s what ThinkerAnalytix programs provide.
