Lessons Library
SFWA is proud to partner with AboutSF.com in providing the Lessons Library, containing Lesson Plans, Reader’s Guides and Sample Courses.
These lessons are aimed at students from all educational levels and backgrounds. Whether you’re a high school teacher looking for an introduction to SF, a physics student looking for SF novels about physics, or a reader hoping to learn about the history of science fiction, you’ll find something to interest you here!
We’re actively seeking out new lessons to add to our library. To submit your own lesson, click here.
The Lessons Library is arranged in the following sections:.
- Course Outlines contains full courses with lesson plans and handouts. A number of key texts are used in each course, while other courses are devoted to a single book or author.
- SF by Subject Matter recommends SF stories based on the subject matter they convey. It’s organized by course or subject matter.
- Reader’s Guides provides study questions and reader’s guides for individual books. The texts are listed by title.
- Academic Projects presents sample advanced studies of science fiction stories or authors.
