I've considered the idea of a course for general education that specifically teaches about these psychological traits and the ways they can backfire... a sort of anti-manipulation, bias awareness training camp.

Set up scenarios involving

- fake news about classmates and show everyone how they respond vs researching and being skeptical...

- personal info security vs pwnage / outing / fraud...

- scenarios invoking biases and showing explicitly how they affect decisions and actions
