TAM educator grants

Doubtful News editors, Sharon and Torkel, will be at TAM. We want to help educators get there too.

Teachers and professors hold the key to introducing students to the concepts of critical thinking and how to be skeptical. We fully support efforts in science appreciation and teaching evidence-based reasoning in the classroom. This makes a difference!

We realize that new teachers and professors may only have small salaries to support themselves and their families but would greatly benefit from the incredible ideas and networking opportunities available at TAM. So, DN is launching the Doubtful News TAM Grants for Educators campaign to defray the cost for attending this big event.

Your donations to the fund is essential. All funds earmarked for the grants will be used towards registration for qualified applicants who also demonstrate they can attend the event.

Your contribution of $30 or more will net you one of the handiest things ever – a foldaway shopping tote with the Doubtful News logo.

To apply to receive complimentary registration (Basic – includes meals), send an email to the DN editor with a justification and your qualifications as an educator. Providing an .edu or school email address is appreciated. Your request should not be long but to the point. Supply examples of previous work or your ideas to promote skeptical thinking. Financial reasons are also considered. If you would like to request a grant for something OTHER THAN Basic registration, please provide justification to be considered.

Deadline June 5
