Online Parapsychology Course
I was asked recently whether I could recommend an introductory course into Parapsychology, and the answer is yes.
Dr Caroline Watt (Koestler Parapsychology Unit, University of Edinburgh) has pioneered a 10 week distance learning course. As the blurb explains:
“This short course is taught entirely online and is open to anyone regardless of geographical location. It is a non-accredited course, meaning that there is no formal assessment or qualification gained, though regular participation is expected for award of the certificate. The programme consists of a ‘familiarisation’ week, followed by ten weekly modules covering key topics in parapsychology. The course aims to provide a balanced approach and stimulate critical thinking on each topic.”
I know Caroline well from my days in Edinburgh, and I’m sure that people will find her course interesting, enlightening and very well taught.
The course outline can be found here: http://www.koestler-parapsychology.psy.ed.ac.uk/teachingOSContent.html
It costs £200, and there is a discount for Student Affiliates of the Parapsychological Association.
