Course Description:
Make no mistake about it. One of the most important skills you need to develop during graduate school is the skill of communicating your scientific work to a wide array of audiences. That facility will serve you across audiences, from your scientific peers to students to your neighbors and the general public. This project-based course seeks to familiarize you with concepts and processes important to communicating science successfully to a variety of audiences and through a variety of settings. Participants will also create a diversity-focused plan of action for their future teaching practice.
