ID 320 - Science Communication for Broader Impact 3 Credit Hours
Become an effective science communicator. Science communication is a vital component of the scientific process. Grants, especially through the National Science Foundation, require clear communication and have an increasing emphasis on the broader impact section that focuses on public outreach. In this course, you’ll gain the skills you need to identify your audience and tailor your message to that audience, select the right communication method for the task at hand, use narratives to shape your communication, and translate scientific findings to maximize your reach and impact. We will use popular literature, media, and scientific literature to inform how we craft different kinds of messages, including developing an elevator pitch, and writing copy for signage and newspaper articles, and policy memos.
