It would be easier to navigate our information world if we had a navigational system to guide us. Absent such a system, the authors of the five articles in this special issue propose different ways to help learners engage with scientific information, in light of the post-truth condition. I suggest that the contribution of these articles lies in their emphasis on encouraging deliberation-oriented practices, and in presenting a qualified view of science. I further argue that greater knowledge of this qualified science, as well as privileging science, may be necessary components. In order to have an impact on learners’ lives, I encourage adopting a framework of mastery and appropriation, and giving greater attention to issues of appropriation.

如果我们有一个导航系统来指导我们，那么导航我们的信息世界会更加容易。缺少这样一个系统，本期特刊的五篇文章的作者提出了不同的方法，以根据真实情况来帮助学习者学习科学信息。我认为这些文章的贡献在于它们强调鼓励以审议为导向的实践，并提出一种合格的科学观点。我进一步指出，对这种合格的科学以及特权科学的更多了解可能是必要的组成部分。为了影响学习者的生活，我鼓励采用精通和占用的框架，并更加重视占用的问题。
