Rhetorical Resources for Teaching Responsible Communication of Science

Author: Jean Goodwin (Iowa State University)

Abstract

We report on the Teaching Responsible Communication of Science project at Iowa State University. This NSF-supported work will produce nine case studies focusing on the ethical challenges that arise when scientists communicate with the public. These case studies promise to add a normative dimension to the practical communication training offered to scientists, while at the same time contributing a rhetorical perspective to the interdisciplinary scholarship on science communication.

Keywords: rhetoric of science, science communication, science communication education, science communication ethics, science-policy interface
