Another thing to add to a dream curriculum: critical appraisal of scientific literature. There is a lot of reporting in the lay media about science, ranging from nutrition research to climate science, which frequently over or under represents the validity of the research or the conclusions that can be drawn. I think in the modern world people need to have a rudimentary ability to understand the difference between the results of a single poorly conducted study, a well conducted study, and a rigorous body of research. They also need to understand why studies may legitimately get different results.
