Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to assess the validity of returning to the classical model of education based on the trivium in the context of contem- porary educational and technological challenges. Drawing on the principles of classical education, where grammar, dialectic, and rhetoric formed the foundation for rational and civic development of the individual, the author analyzes to what extent a return to these fundamentals might address issues related to the superficial and formulaic thinking of the younger generation. The author emphasizes the importance of developing critical thinking, logical reasoning skills and effective argumentation as an antidote to disinformation and simplifications appearing in the digital age. Additionally, the article presents a proposal for implementing the trivium as a method to support holistic development of knowledge and personality.
