Students Beware!The text is about cognitive biases that teachers, students and policy makers should be aware of when making important decisions about teaching, learning and the education system in general.We all tend to create our own reality, form opinions that are not exclusively based on facts, judge situations and other people inaccurately and make illogical decisions.The text is primarily based on Daniel Kahneman's book Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011), a book that describes the workings of the mind as an interaction between two systems: the automatic and very fast System 1 and the effortful but slow System 2. In the final section of the article, the importance of developing thinking and decision-making skills in both teachers and students is emphasized.
