Communicating Research
This April, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) hosts its Catalyzing Advocacy in Science and Engineering (CASE) workshop in person in Washington, DC
Humans make sense of their world through stories. By using story structure to communicate your research, you can engage your audience’s curiosity and emotions, taking them along with you on your journey of discovery.
In this session, we will learn and practice basic principles of writing in plain language.
"Plain language" is a way of communicating information simply and efficiently to your audiences. By using plain language, you relieve your reader (or listener) of the extra effort required to interpret jargon or process long sentences.
Now that you know your audience – their interests and motivations – what message do you want to communicate to them? In this session we will learn how to determine your own goals and find the best medium through which to achieve that goal. We will use the Message Tool to frame your messages in ways that connect with your target audience.
Have you ever heard anyone say, "know your audience"? That's great advice, but how do you do it? In this session, we will explore a variety of ways of getting to know your audience, even if you don’t know who your audience may be at this point.
This multi-day event will include a Policy 101 overview, an introduction to how your science gets funded, a discussion centered on policymaking in the current hyper-partisan era, a science policy-focused communication workshop, and more.
