The Institute of Cosmos Sciences, thanks to the Acreditación Unidad de Excelencia María de Maeztu, can provide training to its members to improve their scientific dissemination skills.

The course will be in English, but your contributions can be in Catalan, Spanish or English.

By participating in Explaining Science, you will learn a methodology specifically created by Big Van Science to identify relevant scientific content, turn it into a story that will captivate your audience, and take it public using your natural stage talent.

Specific Content:

● Specific methodology to define the scientific content to be explained: choice of general theme and the specific content, to relate them to each other and to the type of audience they are directed at.

● Contextualization of scientific content: implications of science on society and reflection upon the social challenges being addressed.

● Storytelling: narrative techniques for the construction of oral stories that allow the scientific content to be brought closer to the audience, and vice-versa.

● Dynamic speech techniques: strengthening the necessary stage skills for oral science communication, such as stage presence, gaze, gesturing, the use of the voice, and awareness of the audience.

The course will take place from June 14 to 18, 2pm to 4pm.

The registration will close on May 9, 23.59.
