Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Crash Course in Science Communication
Obviously some people move towards a science communication career by
starting on it part-time, mixed with an existing job, nursing a small
business, or childcare. Have you considered other modes of delivery
rather than a solid week?
And/or many courses gain from bringing people back together after a
period of putting the teaching into practice.
