Fantastic #AAASmtg workshop from @scicomm_jc on values-based communication to reach audiences who are undecided on science issues! #scicommjc #scicomm #outreach Some key takeaways 👇
Values are concepts or beliefs that guide actions and decisions. People prioritize different values. Values-based communication intentionally matches the values in a message to the values held by an audience.
To learn your audience's values, listen! Find out what questions they ask, what motivates them. "A good science communicator listens more than they talk."

"Those that are blind from birth still gesture during speech." There are so many things that make us just uniquely human and it is amazing.
"Gestures reflect what we know and can even change what we know." #AAASmtg
How People Learn: A New Look #AAASmtg Hosted by: Nora Newcombe, Zewelanji Serpell, Cora Marrett, Annemarie Palincsar
"Different cultures place different value on learning by copying/creating, doing/observing, talking/listening, explaining/acting" which can all lead to differences in approaches during cognitive tasks. #AAASmtg
"The key to understanding learning is to have an appreciation for variability and to meaningfully consider variability in its many forms." - Zewelanji Serpell
