Developing the Science of Science Communication in Early Career Scientists

将于2019年2月在湖沼学与海洋学科学协会年会的同时，为学生和早期职业科学家举办一次研讨会。研讨会将提供一个可以在一天内在任何研究会议上实施的模型，并将重点放在提高口头和视觉沟通技巧上。研讨会的组织和评估将由博士负责。来自萨福克大学的Schiebel和Stone。主讲人将是爱尔兰国立大学戈尔韦物理学院的物理学家兼讲师Jessamyn a . Fairfield博士和Creative Research Communications有限责任公司的所有者Echo a . Rivera博士。两位主讲人都经验丰富，资质良好，在培训科学家向各种观众进行有效演讲方面具有专业知识。工作坊的评估将由英国萨福克大学社会学助理教授丽贝卡·斯通博士进行。本次研讨会将为大约40名学生和早期职业科学家提供一个提高他们演讲技巧的机会。研讨会的计划是可靠的，这次活动很可能会有很多人参加，并且非常成功，因为它将与一个大型的年度会议一起举行。讲习班的更广泛影响包括为不同的参与者群体提供培训和专业发展。除了为参与者提供培训外，该奖项还将支持两名早期职业科学家，他们将获得研讨会组织和资助管理方面的经验。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

A workshop for students and early career scientists will be held in conjunction with the annual conference of the Association of the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography in February, 2019. The workshop will provide a model that can be implemented in one day at any research conference and will focus on improving both oral and visual communication skills. Workshop organization and evaluation will be managed by Drs. Schiebel and Stone, from Suffolk University. The main speakers will be Dr. Jessamyn A. Fairfield, a physicist and Lecturer, National University of Ireland Galway's School of Physics and Dr. Echo A. Rivera, owner of Creative Research Communications, LLC. Both speakers are highly experienced and well qualified, with expertise in training scientists to give effective presentations to a variety of audiences. Evaluation of the workshop will be conducted by Dr. Rebecca Stone, Assistant Professor of Sociology, Suffolk University.This workshop will offer a group of approximately forty students and early career scientists an opportunity to improve their presentation skills. The plan for the workshop is solid, and the event is likely to be well-attended and highly successful because it will be held in conjunction with a large annual conference. The broader impacts of the workshop include training and professional development for a diverse group of participants. In addition to the training provided to participants, this award will support two early career scientists who will gain experience in workshop organization and grant management.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
