摘要

科学错误信息阻碍了我们对人类面临的挑战作出迅速和统一反应的能力，对我们的生命和文明构成了生存威胁。为了举例说明科学错误信息对我们共同应对当前全球挑战的有害影响，本文的第一部分讨论了疫苗犹豫和否认气候变化的影响。其次是评估科学方法的关键方面和衡量科学来源可靠性所需的技能是如何在小学和中学课程中实施的。最后一部分建立在前两部分的基础上，提出了一些战略建议，以增强后代的科学素养和批判性思维技能，以应对他们无疑将面临的挑战。

Our students learn science in school, but are we teaching them how to identify scientific misinformation?

By hindering our ability to mount a swift and unified response to the challenges humanity is faced with, scientific misinformation poses an existential threat to our lives and civilization. To exemplify the detrimental effect of scientific misinformation on our collective response to current global challenges, the first section of this article discusses the impact of vaccine hesitancy and climate change denialism. This is followed by an evaluation of how critical aspects of the scientific method and the skills required to gauge the reliability of scientific sources are implemented in school curricula at the primary and secondary levels. The final section builds upon the previous two to provide suggestions on strategies to empower future generations with the scientific literacy and critical thinking skills required to rise up to the challenges they will undoubtedly be faced with.
