What it practises

Deep reflection & analysis: Slowing down: weighing evidence, spotting weak arguments and explaining why something worked.
Sustained focus: Longer sessions of steady effort, with check-ins when you start to slow down.
Spatial & visual perception: Judging angles, rotations, paths and positions in 2D and 3D space.

Fast games can crowd out slow thinking, so this skill uses untimed games and written reflection.

A mirror set at 45° to a beam turns it through a right angle. Chaining mirrors lets you route light around obstacles.

A beam meets a mirror tilted at 45° to its path. How far does it turn?

Answer: 90°. It arrives 45° from the mirror and leaves 45° on the other side: 45° + 45° = 90°.

Phishing Spotter: Scam or safe? Read each message, then name the detail that gives a scam away. Untimed, with every answer explained.
Case File: Read the clues and pick the conclusion that really follows, including when the honest answer is “you can’t tell”. Untimed.
Source Check: Which source would you trust, and what should you check before you share? Funding, evidence, dates and lateral reading. Untimed.
Data Story: Read a chart and pick the conclusion it really supports. Watch for cut-off axes, tiny samples and links that aren’t causes. Untimed.
Hypothesis Lab: Design a fair experiment: what to keep the same, what to measure, and why scientists use control groups and blind trials. Untimed.
Argument Map: Four jumbled sentences from an argument. Find the claim, the evidence, the counter-argument and the reply. Untimed.
