I would probably create a whole new class called "thinking 101" or something. It should teach:

-numeracy: how much is 1 million/1 billion/1 trillion, etc.

-common cognitive biases.

-logical fallacies.

-basic science.

-basic coding.

-De Bono's 6 thinking hats.

-how the brain works.

-meditation (ie not thinking).

-how to learn stuff faster and better.

-how to remember stuff: memory palace and the like.

-etc

I could think up a HUGE list of stuff in this genre that would be very helpful.
