Goals
To write, design, and create works that will increase society’s love for science.
Issues
How do people learn about science, technology, engineering and math outside of school?  How can science writing (i.e. journalism or creative science writing), exhibits at educational institutions (i.e science centers, botanical gardens, zoos and aquariums), and events like science festivals affect the public’s understanding of and enthusiasm for science?  How can we use science to create more effective informal science education?
