In this course you’ll get a general overview of the field of science communication and its knowledge base, and you’ll implement that information during your internship. You’’ll be working in an organization in the (in)formal science education field, while at the same time you’ll follow (some) educational sessions at university. You’ll experience this work environment, carry out all kinds of relevant tasks, seek active contact with the target audience(s) and meanwhile work on one main task: developing a product for your organization / supervisor. This product will be designed using literature and has to be finished and handed in together with a (research- or evidence-based) report on why and how the product was made. In addition you’ll have to reflect on your own professional development by means of learning aims you have to set up for yourself.
