We are going through historical times. Everything can change in a minute. Our society can become even more misogynistic or we could finally live in an equal society. But to try to build a feminist world, we need a Method. In this 6-part series, Rebecca Amsellem, a French-Canadian feminist activist, investigates how we could achieve a successful feminist movement. To try and build this method, she has interviewed women who helped her understand what the word feminist really means: French philosophers Geneviève Fraisse and Manon Garcia.

In this book, Lee McIntyre argues that what distinguishes science from its rivals is what he calls "the scientific attitude" - caring about evidence and being willing to change theories on the basis of new evidence. The history of science is littered with theories that were scientific but turned out to be wrong; the scientific attitude reveals why even a failed theory can help us to understand what is special about science.

Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or a touchscreen payment system that only works for people who read English phrases, have 20/20 vision, and use a credit card.

There are guidelines for developing and choosing teaching methods that need to take into consideration not only the complexity of the subject but also how students are learning.

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which the abuser attempts to diffuse confusion and self-doubt in their victim’s mind. By distorting reality and forcing the victim to question their own judgment, gaslighters are typically seeking to gain control and power over the other person. The whole purpose of gaslighting is to convince you that you are unable to trust your instincts, or even your thoughts, and therefore, cause you to question your entire reality.
