During the Grammar stage, we focus on absorbing and memorizing facts. Cognitive biases can creep in through:
Confirmation bias: we can selectively focus on information that confirms existing beliefs, neglecting contradictory evidence. LESSON: always try to keep an open mind.
Authority bias: The credibility of sources may be overemphasized, leading students to accept information without critical evaluation. LESSON: be open to multiple sources
Stereotyping: Initial impressions or categorizations may influence how we perceive and remember new information. Lesson: be open to new data along the parh.
