AGENDA, session 3 (Wednesday): outreach
Wednesday 30th.
---------------------
Chair: Natalia Ruiz Zelmanovitch
What is Science Outreach? Do you participate in those activities? Of course, there are many different ways to understand and promote Science Public Outreach. Read what wikipedia says about this and let us know your opinion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_outreach
The slides from the session can be downloaded from here.
09:00-11:00
What is and what is not Public Outreach- Discussion.
Giving a talk vs giving an interview (relations with the media).
Use your time properly: what to say and how to say it.
The damn of power point.
Internet tools- Social networks
11:00-11:30- Coffee break
11:30-13:00
Strategy for outreach: from the beginning of the project.
From the paper to the newspaper.
Credibility: "Arsenic and neutrinos: A love story".
13:00-14:30- Lunch
14:30-16:30
Workshop: Do it yourself (Exercise from Pilar Perla and Elena Sanz).
IMPORTANT:
The meeting will end before 5 PM, so you can catch a flight.
Note that Barajas airport is about 30 minutes away by metro.
