How to (make) Science Information More Accessible and Engaging
Mentor: Riley St Clair

How does science make ecology more accessible and engaging to a wider audience? This presentation aims to guide scientific and educational discussions by highlighting the importance of communicating ecological science to a broader audience. By analyzing several literacies and creative ways to communicate I have compiled based on scholarly literacy several creative approaches to engage and educate diverse audiences and turn complex scientific research into understandable and captivating content. The public often finds scientific language inaccessible due to paywalls and higher education costs. Therefore, this review I will be showcasing seeks to bridge the gap between scientific discussions and accessibility issues by attracting a wider audience to ecological issues. Ultimately, this presentation serves as an engaging way to make ecological science communication more accessible to a broader audience by showcasing some important communication approaches to encourage scientists to be more engaging and make their work more accessible through creative approaches.
