Course: "Getting the message across" in Foulum

Learn how to attract attention to your scientific work with appealing press releases and appetising popular science articles. 

We will have a look at:

• why it is important to communicate your science in a popular way
• finding a good angle
• writing clearly, concisely and correctly
• making your articles come alive by writing simply and fun while still retaining the serious note
• understanding how the press works 

The course will be held in two modules. Between the modules you will be expected to write a short popular science article using the tools and tips that are covered in the first module. 

The course will be taught in English by AGRO’s communication consultant Janne Hansen, a native Canadian with degrees in agriculture and journalism. 

Bring paper, pen and creativity – they will all be put to work during the course.
