Recontextualizing Knowledge
Situation in Science Communication
International Conference
March 27-29, 2017
Alte Aula, University of Tübingen
Organisation: Rhetoric Department, Research Center for Presentation Competence

Markus Gottschling, M.A.
Science and knowledge communication are crucial tasks in today’s globalized knowledge societies. Scientists and educators are able to use a multitude of platforms to disseminate knowledge to a wide range of audiences. At the same time, if they want their positions to be heard, they must adapt to the varying situational requirements of these platforms. Ranging from informative podcasts to inspirational TED conferences, immensely popular formats have emerged that require a specific handling of the communicative situation, not least because the audiences have dramatically changed. With this conference, we aim to analyze the communicative situations involved in science and knowledge communication, their settings and audiences, and the process of the recontextualization of knowledge for these specific settings and audiences.
Registration opens at 12:30 pm on March 27 at the conference venue.
