WEEKLY
SUBJECTS
For clubs that meet on a regular basis, you may want to
consider a subject-based theme for the overall program.
At each meeting your group can explore a paranormal subject
and discuss the popular ideas and claims that surround it
along with the science and skeptical perspectives. Activities,
investigations and experiments can be organized for each
subject explored. Quizzes, projects and other assignments
can also be included at each meeting. Handouts and additional
materials can be created for group members to pursue the
subject further on their own.
A subject-based theme can also be used for all of the other
types of extracurricular programs listed here.
This theme can also be the focus of course curricula and
classroom activity.
Here we will provide a sample list of subjects that are
worth exploring and that are popular today - especially
among young people. For the subjects that include links
to separate pages, we will begin collecting activities and
a variety of the above material that can be used in your
programs.
For additional material, also see other areas of the site
- the Library
& Research Center provides resources for a long
list of subjects, the Educational
Resource Area may include classroom material and instructional
units for many topics included here and the Skeptic
Fair Area, the Skeptic's
Toolbox and the Activities
Section (among others) will also be developing material
that may be useful for this activity.
