Abstract:
How many times did poor Dr. Watson hear these words from a triumphant Sherlock Holmes when he had solved a case?
Have you ever felt like Dr. Watson while listening to lectures or in the company of some fellow students? Have you ever struggled with all the information (=clues) in your textbook trying to make sense of it (=finding the killer)?
Do you doubt that you could ever really think like Sherlock Holmes - even if you put your mind to it? Well, cognitive psychologist Maria Konnikova thinks that we can. How? Show up, listen, discuss - and reflect - and you might learn how.
