How to enrol

Science in narrative format is read twice as quickly and recalled twice as well as science in evidence-based text. It generates greater engagement and creates more persistent attitude and belief changes. Science narratives influence both our personal decisions and our governments’ policy decisions. Story is, therefore, a form that all scientists and engineers could benefit from engaging with.

In this practical, creative module, you will learn how to construct compelling narratives about true science stories for a variety of non-specialist audiences.
