Effective communication and community engagement with science are critical, particularly in our modern era of information overwhelm. In this course, we actively explore tools and techniques for oral, written, and visual communication of science in various mediums and with a range of publics and motivations. With an emphasis on critical and creative thinking, we will cultivate a set of skills and best practices as students develop a personal philosophy for communicating science with diverse audiences.
