A costly delay
Oped, Postbag, Published on 20/02/2021

A country that depends on close to 20% of its GDP on travel and tourism should by now be right up there with Israel in terms of inoculations or at least at par with the UK to be able to open up this coming summer.

It captures events from a specific angle, with a specific depth of field, and perhaps through various filters. Why not expose students to multiple interpretations and let them, through discussion, identify the biases in each and, in the process, develop critical thinking skills?
