#treas2012 Nancy Baron final statements: NCEAS 2.0 = 'culture of engagement' in whatever way makes sense to you
@Nancy_Baron. Best communicators are those who devote a lifetime to upping their game. Not those born with a silver tongue. #treas2012- Baron: NCEAS 2.0 shld be culture of engagement. Not those with silver-tongue. Is those who work hardest. #treas2012
- Lou Gross: sr scientists haven't been succsfl at educ students abt evidence-based science. Thnk abt ths-maybe thngs can imprve? #treas2012
#treas2012 A vision for NCEAS 2.0 is the Open Science model sketched out in Neilson's new book..."Reinventing Discovery"
RT @tvjrennie: #treas2012 Jackson: Danger of the [meta-analytic] quest for ultimate generality is that exceptions become clues that get swept under rug.- Todd-- silo-ization f news s one issue. But friends trust friends. Small chngs cn mk difference. #treas2012
- Rennie: find "frndly NASCAR driver" or Taylor Swift. Josh Tewksbury: r gettng betr talkng pts in climate chng; some optimism. #treas2012
- Rennie: ths is the cultural cognition problem. Not tht dont like science; thnk is "bad science". Need ambassadors #treas2012
- VIctoria Sork: Q for Rennie- never been more emph on sci commu thn now. Yet, evoltn and anthrop climate chng-- ignorance grows? #treas2012
- Rennie: if ur job forbids commu w public, maybe can't do much. Cld tlk abt need for offcl statemnt #treas2012
- Sandy Liebhold: as govt sci, we often mst avoid commu with journalsts about so-called "controversial topics". What to do? #treas2012
- #treas2012 Jai: next big challenge for us scientists is reaching 1000 folks each. Multiply that up, if we each did that....awesome!
- Todd: if ecologist, u r "leftist". f u blv climate chng, u r "leftist". F blv evolutn, might be framed out of discussion.. #treas2012
Good advice for all of us from @tvjrennie RT @jebyrnes: Rennie; whatever way you can engage, do it, and do it as often as you can #treas2012
Rennie; whatever way you can engage, do it, and do it as often as you can. #treas2012- Jai: is somewhat true; need ambassadors. Rennie: some evidence that xposure to ideas increases receptivity to these #treas2012
- Bruce Kendall: audiences select what they wnt to hear. " If I hv blog, wil I reach anybdy, excpt thse who alrdy know what I do?" #treas2012
- Rennie: need to learn how to talk to ur audience. Cumulative impacts will ultimately be beneficial. #treas2012
