In June 2011, five leading skeptics (Bill Nye, James Randi, Donald Prothero, Brian Dalton, and Michael Shermer) met at Caltech during the Skeptics Society's Science Symposium to discuss their experiences communicating science to the public.

Young audience members took advantage of these experts to ask excellent questions.

This video includes one of the hottest topics in the skeptical community today: What is the most effective approach for educating the public and promoting skepticism, science, and critical thinking skills—confrontation, or a more gentle and respectful approach?

There are several DVDs from the Science Symposium that you can order from Shop Skeptic:
