Hot Air: Communicating the Science of Climate Change

Hot Air, a symposium on the science of communication of climate change was held today in Perth. The event was organised by the Australian Science Communicators Association and was enthusiastically attended (and partly facilitated) by staff and students from UWA.

Videos of the event have only been made available to guest account holders for now (sorry!). Guest account holders can view these by logging into YouTube with their account details.

Calling all door prize winners!

Have you won a door prize at the Friday SciComm Seminar Series? If you have, we'd like to know if your prize lived up to the (scientific or other) claims on the packaging. Did those crystals grow? Were any animals attracted to the whistle? Did the environment suit protect you from the harmful rays? (okay, maybe not that one). If not, why not?

Please email us at uwasciencecomm@gmail.com if you'd like to post your review here, or just use the 'comment' link below this post (comments are moderated so it won't appear immediately).

If your prize doesn't really lend itself to a review (or if you haven't won anything yet), tell us about a previous experience with an 'educational' product anyway.
