ASSIGNMENT QUESTIONS
(in development)
Choose
a person to study.
Projects
can be a written assignment, a poster presentation,
an oral presentation or a combination. You may also
want to choose both a skeptical and a paranormal
person to study to allow comparisons between the
two.
This
first batch of questions is if you are only choosing
one person to profile. The next batch is if you
are choosing one of each.
1.
Try to find at least five sources where you can
learn about the person you are researching.
2.
Write a brief biographical profile of the person.
3.
Based on your research, is the person you are profiling,
a Skeptic or a Paranormal personality? Explain how
and why you reached your conclusion.
4.
Choose one or more phenomena that the person has
taken a stance on and describe what the person believes
about the particular phenomena. Do they provide
any reasons for their belief? If so, what are they?
5.
Based on your research, what influences do you think
may have contributed to the person's position?
