Joanna Pope on how to "stop serving alphabet soup"! #SciComm2018 #thoseacronymstho
All ready for my #SciComm2018 talk about @FunsizePhysics, and dressed for the part in my @SvahaUSA best! (Thanks to @KiyomiD for the photo!)
Joe Palca @joesbigidea: Telling YOUR story is the hardest thing to do -- you know too much! -- so practice by telling the story of someone else's research you know nothing about. #SciComm2018
OH at #scicomm2018: “Nobody wants to listen to two people talking over an iPhone.”
Except that’s the model for some of the most popular podcasts out there (My Favorite Murder comes to mind).
One thing I’m noticing at #SciComm2018 is a shift in the narrative away from “how do we get the public to know more facts” and towards “how do we humanize scientists and the process of science?” YES!
Popular Science has a “tales from the field” about funny anecdotes, and they’re always looking for stories. Contact @Lederman! #SciComm2018
Jason Lederman reminds students to have an online presence, and get your work out there if you want journalists to find you: be Google-able! #SciComm2018
Jason Lederman: Popular Science is one of the oldest science magazines in the country (146 years!), which comes with a sense of authority, and responsibility. #SciComm2018
Alison Stevens recommends the Children’s Writer’s Word Book and http://Readable.io as tools for writing for young audiences. #SciComm2018
Stevens: Writing for kids and teens isn’t about “dumbing it down,” it’s about making your work accessible. You can learn tools that will help reach a broad audience: Concise, snappy, story-driven, audience-focused. #SciComm2018
