Bill Nye Pseudoscience Video Worksheet (Great intro to Scientific Method)
I think that this is one of the best (but most unknown) Bill Nye videos out there. I love using it to help introduce the Scientific Method. Usually I show this right after I have given an introductory lesson on the Scientific Method; however, sometimes I use it as a "hook" lesson. When I use it as a hook I have students answer question #16, once they have had a lesson on the scientific method.
