Introduction
摘要
The study presents a theoretical and practical framework that examines the impact of on epistemological beliefs, conspiracy theories, pseudoscientific claims, and paranormal beliefs in an educational context. In the post-truth era, distrust of information triggers individuals to turn to irrational belief systems, creating new pedagogical responsibilities for educators. The ten chapters in the book detail classroom interventions and epistemic approach strategies developed to counter irrational beliefs through social media analyses, teacher attitudes, scientific trust indicators, and systematic reviews. The content, which centers on epistemic-democratic and ethical-political models, is integrated with applications that support students’ competencies in critical thinking, news literacy, and statistical reasoning. In this context, the study offers a multi-layered theoretical framework for developing epistemic resistance in contemporary education systems.
