Thursday, November 9, 2017 12:00 – 1:30 pm 337 LeConte, UC Berkeley Presented by Coalition for Education and Outreach Why should science outreach be an essential component of research labs and scientist training? In this session, we focus on how to develop an outreach activity that highlights the focal research of your lab group or program. What should you consider when developing activities, and what resources are available to help you succeed? Panelists from two campus lab groups will provide insights on best practices for engaging audiences and lessons learned from their experiences. Presenters David Whitney, Professor, Department of Psychology Brian Wang, PhD student, Sarpong Lab, Department of Chemistry Traci Grzymala, Community Resources for Science The Coalition for Education & Outreach (CEO) is a community of some 400 science educators, program administrators, faculty, and students who work in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education and outreach. We are based at UC Berkeley, but our members hail from all over the Bay Area and beyond.
