报告摘要和报告人介绍:
Summary: Science communication training programs in the United States and other countries range from half-day seminars to full degree programs. Some are targeted at producing professional science communicators. Some are designed to introduce journalists and other communicators to issues in science. Others are intended to help scientists communicate their own work better, or to help them collaborate with journalists. This talk will provide a systematic look at these many different types of training programs, addressing the key issues that need to be considered when designing a program. It will include some thoughts on how to evaluate the effectiveness of a training program.


Speaker: Bruce V. Lewenstein (A.B., general studies in the humanities, 1980, University of Chicago; Ph.D., history and sociology of science, 1987, University of Pennsylvania) is Professor of Science Communication in the Departments of Communication and of Science & Technology Studies at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, USA. He works primarily on the history of public communication of science, with excursions into other areas of science communication (such as informal science education). He has also been very active in international activities that contribute to education and research on public communication of science and technology, especially in the developing world. Most recently, he was co-chair of a U.S. National Research Council study, Learning Science in Informal Environments: People, Places, and Pursuits, edited by Philip Bell, Bruce Lewenstein, Andrew W. Shouse, and Michael A. Feder (2009). From 1998 to 2003, he was editor of the journal Public Understanding of Science. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and in 2010 is chair of the AAAS’s Section on Societal Impacts of Science and Engineering. In China, he is Visiting Professor at the Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, delivering a series of lectures on “The contribution of public communication to development of science and technology.”
