Event Description
14 січня. Всесвітній день логіки
День логіки започатковано у 2019 році під егідою ЮНЕСКО, щоб привернути увагу до важливості критичного мислення. Ця дата відзначає день народження Альфреда Тарського, видатного логіка та математика. Критичне мислення треба розвивати, бо в сучасному світі — це дуже корисне вміння.
Слово дня: “ДУМКА" - те, що з'явилося в результаті міркування, продукт мислення.
Кожна думка має значення, якщо підкріплена логікою.
The word of the day: riddle (noun)/ˈrɪdl/
Meaning: a question or statement that requires careful thought to answer or solve.
Example: The Sphinx posed a famous riddle to those seeking entry to the city.
Your MINI-TASK is to look through the riddles, solve them and share your answers in the chat.
