This four-week online dowsing tutorial is designed to introduce you to dowsing principles and ways of using it to enhance your life and improve your choices and decisions in epistemically challenging situations. We start with the fundamentals of dowsing.
Dowsing is an ancient skill with modern applications. Come to renewed prominence thanks to its value as an additional tool in remote viewing, it offers a solution to the “search” problem: That is, locating things that remote viewing can only “find”—help you learn the “where” when you already know the “what.” (Discover what this means on the first day of our course!). It can be useful in decision-making scenarios where nothing else can work, in certain future-prediction environments, and in determining facts and other information that are otherwise obscured from normal sources of discovery.
We explore:
The course includes:
The instruction will alternate between instructional presentations and hands-on dowsing exercises beginning with the basics and building into techniques useful for increasingly complex problem-solving.
Even though dowsing has reemerged in the remote viewing context, you don’t have to be a remote viewer to take this class. But if you are a remote viewer, you will find this tool a valuable enhancement to your remote viewing tool chest, and well worth the time and resources required to develop it. And if you’re not a remote viewer, don’t let that get in your way! The dowsing principles and techniques you learn here can still be a valuable asset in helping with many of life’s challenges.
How to you find something that you don't know where it is?
There's more to dowsing than you might think!

Various articles, videos, and other information provided throughout the course.
This course will be evaluated based on the student's activity and completion of the activities, discussions, and exercises. Letter grades will not be provided for this course, but you must complete each of the activities to be recognized as completing this course.
Participation in the forums is a large component of the evaluation, and substantive postings are necessary to get full credit for each discussion topic.
This 4 week course is presented as an ungraded continuing education course from the Rhine Education Center.
This four week course is designed for people interested in finding a legitimate psychic, those who want to evaluate psychics, or even the researchers who wants to learn more about the skills necessary to determine if a psychic is fooling you or themselves. The course will give you the basic tools to:
As this is not an academically oriented class, there are no grades and no assignments you must complete. However, there are articles to be read to support the material from the lecture, as well as audio (mp3) mini-lectures and video you should listen to/watch to more fully understand the material (and to take you further than the weekly main lectures).
Additionally, there are weekly discussion questions for students to help initiate online discussion and to foster more of a classroom environment.
Syllabus: Remote Viewing (4 week course)
Instructor: Paul H. Smith, Ph.D.

This 8 week academic course will define the phenomena and experiences related to Extrasensory Perception (ESP) and provide an in-depth study of the current and historical evidence and research of Telepathy, Clairvoyance, and Precognition. The differences and similarities between these categories of psi experience/abilities will be discussed as well as an overview of what has been learned about psychological and physical variables and theories and models of ESP. Some of the basic topics related to Remote Viewing and applications of ESP will also be introduced in this class.
1) WEEKLY: There are weekly discussion questions. Please be sure to post in response to the question of the week. Brevity is fine as long as you actually address the question and topic of the week in your responses. The Instructor will also be looking for intelligent/relevant responses to the posts of other students (in other words, consider this your "class participation")
Please be sure to post your answers to discussion questions no later than the start of the next week's lecture/webinar! Responses to other student posts should also be included.
Note: If you are going to experience a delay in posting due to work or travel commitments, please contact the Instructor.
2) WEEKLY: Be sure to read the weekly assigned articles/material (or watch videos, when in the assignments), and it's probably best to do so before you post in the discussion forums.
3) EXAMS: There is a mid-term and a final exam. Both are short essay type exams, similar in fact to the weekly discussion questions -- though there will be some short answer questions as well.
Mid term exam is due no later than the start of the Week 5 lecture/webinar.
Final exam is due no later than 10 days after it's posted/open to responses.
4) If you are interested in doing a project/paper instead of the final exam, that is possible -- but you must discuss this with the Instructor first.
5) Don't forget to ask questions that may be of interest to the entire class in the "Ask the Instructor" forum. Otherwise, contact the Instructor if you have questions you'd rather not ask in a public forum.
All students are considerd to be auditing the course without a grade. If you plan to use this course for a certificate program, you must take the course for a grade.
Students who are taking the course for a grade will be assessed using a letter grade based on the standard letter grade format.
A – 90 - 100B – 80 – 89C – 70 – 79D – 60 – 69F – Below 60Participation in the forums is a large component of the grading, and substantive postings are necessary to get full credit for each discussion topic. The following activities will be considered to contribute to the courses as follows:
Discussions (Total 40%) -- 5 points per week.
Exams (Total 60%) -- each exam is worth 30 points
Grades for assignments will be distributed as follows:
Discussion grade/points for weeks 1-4 will be distributed via email after week 4 posts/responses are assessed.

This 4-week online course explores the phenomenon of Presentiment and how this phenomenon impacts the scientific view of time. Presentiment is an unconscious form of precognition that has demonstrated that the physical body and sometimes the mind respond to events that have not yet happened.
Feeling the future, precognitive memory, physical responses to future events, and how studying after a test can improve your test scores. Scientific studies that have explored these events call into question our perception of time. Based on these studies, this course will explore theories of time in physics and philosophy.
This course will introduce students to the scientific studies related to presentiment and time. Students will learn to differentiate presentiment from precognition. Students will also learn the basic theories of time.
In addition to the basic concepts, students will be introduced to the paradoxes presented by different theories of time. The course also discusses the impact of scientific studies of presentiment on time theory and the perception of time.
Various articles provides by the instructor and provided for download throughout the course.
