This contributed volume identifies how the information processes of public institutions and citizens have changed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, within a new context that emerged: the infodemic disorder. Public debate is largely characterized today by a crisis of the legitimacy of institutions, accompanied by a crisis of authority in public communication, leading to the emergency of a state of information disorder due specifically to the need to find information related to the coping of the pandemic. This condition is characterized by growing attention to issues related to ‘fake news’, ‘misinformation’, and ‘media manipulation’, that are intertwined in digital platform ecosystems, and the effects of which on democracy, public communication and research, and the sharing of information in the civic sphere are broad and far-reaching. This volume analyzes the links between communication strategies of public institutions, and the resulting citizen communication, in an attempt to tease out how communication processes have changed during the pandemic. It was decided to investigate this infodemic disorder as it appeared in three different geographical contexts: Europe, Canada and Mexico and, at the same time, to bring out the formal and informal coping strategies implemented by public institutions and citizens. Beginning with an introduction to the crisis of information created by the pandemic, the contributors build a theoretical framework, provide contagion data, and subsequently, for each of the geographical contexts analyzed, explore the public communication strategies and those activated by citizens seeking to share information.

Dies ist ein Open-Access-Buch. Akteure und Fördergeber von Wissenschaftskommunikation beschäftigt zunehmend die Frage, welche Wirkungen von ihren Aktivitäten tatsächlich ausgehen und ob sie ihre Ziele damit eigentlich erreichen. Wer liest das Weblog eines Forschungsprojekts? Ändert der Besuch eines Science-Slams nachhaltig den Blick des Publikums auf Wissenschaft? Wie zufrieden sind die Beteiligten mit einer Diskussionsveranstaltung? Der Band bietet einen Überblick über wissenschaftliche Designs und Methoden zur Evaluation von Wissenschaftskommunikation. Er vereint dabei sowohl quantitative als auch qualitative Zugänge, Forschung und Praxis, und beleuchtet das Thema aus unterschiedlichen disziplinären Perspektiven. Die Herausgeber:innen Dr. Philipp Niemann ist stellvertretender Direktor und wissenschaftlicher Leiter des Nationalen Instituts für Wissenschaftskommunikation (NaWik). Vanessa van den Bogaert ist Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Lehrstuhl für Lehr-Lernforschung der Ruhr-Universität Bochum. Ricarda Ziegler leitet bei Wissenschaft im Dialog (WiD) den Bereich Qualität & Transfer in der Wissenschaftskommunikation und verantwortet u. a. die Impact Unit für Wirkung und Evaluation.

This book, the first of its kind, helps scientists and engineers of all stages and disciplines share their work in a new way—with movies. Today, much of scientific communication is embedded in papers and presentations, but these documents don’t often extend outside of a specific academic field. By adding movies as a medium of communication, scientists and engineers can better communicate with their colleagues while also increasing their reach to students, professors, peers, potential collaborators, and the public. Scientific films help translate complex technical topics into more accessible and consumable messages. By following Lauren Murphy’s filmmaking formula – planning, shooting, and editing – readers will create their very own scientific films that look professional and polished. Using tools as simple as a smartphone, readers can develop short, personal stories with no cost or experience needed. This book will guide readers through all steps of the movie making process to a finished product. Readers will evolve their creative thinking skills and use their movies to improve classroom presentations, network across student organizations, present at conferences, recruit students for their labs, secure grant money, and more. Adding a movie to your body of work can be the tool that sparks interest in audiences to learn more—driving traffic to your publications, research projects, and websites. This book will help you develop new skills to become a better communicator while spreading your ideas and research to new audiences.
