As a capstone project, my talented #RWUCancerBio students wrote "explainer articles" for @sciworthy, a #SciComm site dedicated to demystifying scientific studies for the public. Three have been accepted already and will be posted starting next week! Others are in review. @myrwu
My students have loved this project, which required a skillset completely different from their training in academic writing. 10/10 would recommend working with editor-in-chief Gina Misra & her team! Check out their professor partnership program: sciworthy.com/ppp/
Students participated in an online training course, "Writing for the People," which honestly probably helped MY writing as well. Then their articles were edited by both me and the professionals at Sciworthy.
I am especially excited that this is an #AuthenticAssessment, with an audience beyond our class and experience they can add to their CVs. Watch this space for links to their work!!
