Lara and Ecolog:

Good questions.

No.

Yes.

Yes, but they need to learn it themselves first. And the students need to learn what thinking is; for starters, they could try distinguishing thinking from believing--as could a lot of "scientists" who "profess" to know.

If needed, I can elaborate more on these questions.

Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Disseminating scientific thought to the general public: are scientists making science readily accessible?


Dear all:

I am interested in your thoughts. If needed, I can elaborate more on these
questions.

Are scientists making scientific findings readily accessible to the general
public?

What can scientists do to improve dissemination of scientific information to
the general public?

Do scientists need to be involved in teaching the public about the
scientific method?

Thank you,
Laura
