Question

A learning strategy called Suggestive Accelerative Learning and Teaching Techniques has suggested that people using this method can learn anywhere from 25 to several hundred times their normal learning speeds. When this set of techniques is subjected to scientific scrutiny, however, such results are not achieved. Which critical thinking concept should this bring to mind? a) Occam's Razor b) Replicability c) Extraordinary claims d) Correlation versus causation

Answer 1

Answer: Option (C)

Explanation:

Extraordinary claim is described as the claims that have not been supported or bolstered by the evidence i.e. available and ordinary. The support for any such claims must be obtained from or should come from the newly observed or recorded evidence, i.e. having new recognition of the existing evidence, i.e. considered to be extraordinary.
