  • 6 March – General introduction to communication and scientific mediation

How to avoid jargon traps? How to capture attention? How to make a lasting impact? 

  • 3 April – Critical thinking and Scientific Education

What roles should be played during a scientific mediation activity? What is my role as a research professional in identifying argumentative biases? Can scientific education sharpen one’s critical thinking?

  • 14 May – Experimental public mediation

What is an experiment? What are the different ways to approach it in scientific mediation? How to master the experience in front of an audience?

  • June 11 – Science and Social Media

How to communicate on social networks and develop community engagement? For which objectives and audiences are they, each, the most suitable? Which network is the most relevant to use according to what needs?

  • July 5 – Thinking and writing an outreach project

Which outreach and dissemination component for which funding mechanism? What are the right actions that will make a difference at equal scientific quality and lead to a winning project?

The courses are coordinated by the association Traces, a seasoned player in scientific mediation.

Registration is open for one or more sessions by writing to dim-materre@espci.fr. Attention, places are limited (a second session may be opened if you are many).
