How to think like a SciCommer?
Summary:
Reading and understanding science is easier when you have a background in science and its allied subjects. But, consider for once, explaining science to someone who has absolutely no idea about it.
It can be hard.
It can be gruesome if you aren’t prepared for it.
Explaining science doesn’t mean saying the definitions out loud. Rather, it means highlighting the whys and hows of science. To accentuate its importance, impact, and downsides while uplifting the knowledge base of your listeners and inspiring them with the beauty of science.
It isn’t easy. But who said it would be?
With SciRio, we can help you generate new perspectives towards communicating science, so the next time you explain science to someone, you keep these valuable points in mind.
After all, the true essence of science is achieved when it reaches the masses.
