Funded Activity Summary

But does it work? Evaluation of science communication activities in Australia. Public science communication activities such as talks, blogs, and social evenings are numerous and drawing larger audiences. But how do we measure their success? This project will collect existing evaluations and develop guidelines for science communication evaluation. The evaluation guidelines developed in this project will assist professional science communicators as well as researchers who wish to communicate the results of their scientific research, impacting a range of Australian audiences for science. This project aims to inform science communicators to create better science engagement activities, better ways of evaluating them, and, ultimately, audiences who are more engaged with the results of Australian scientific research.
