ENV 205 - Practical Skills for Successful Communication in Science


3-0-3

Prerequisite:  ENG 102  

This course is designed to offer learners the opportunity to apply basic communication skills within a scientific framework and emphasizes the importance of popular scientific communication.  This course is ideal for those who seek to become working scientists and science policy makers, or citizens of the world who seek change and possess a passion for talking about scientific research in practical context with non-scientists.  Different forms of contemporary communications mediums will be explored such as journalism, creative writing, films, and popular display.  Through critical assessment of various types of examples, we will analyze intent, pitfalls, and successes.
