Science Communication Resources for 9/23 SGSA at UCF Dialogue

Here are some social media and science communication starter resources as a thank you for completing this introductory survey and for attending today’s session. Please note that these resources cross multiple fields, and not all are sociology specific. That’s on purpose. Most academics agree there is much to learn at the convergence of multiple fields/disciplines/specialties. I hope you will consider that spirit as you think more about science communication and social media.
