Exploring the Role of Audience in Science Writing: A Discussion on Baake & Bernhardt’s “Science Writers Looking for Their Audience”
Discussion Topic: Baake & Bernhardt | Science Writers Looking for AudienceBaake & Bernhardt Science Writers Looking for Audience
Today, we’re reading Baake & Bernhardt’s “Science Writers Looking for Their Audience” from Metaphor and Knowledge: The Challenges of Writing Science (PDF below). As you formulate your response, you might find the following questions helpful:
1. Baake & Bernhardt refer to Plato’s assumption that rhetoricians (speakers or writers) always set out to be persuasive. Do you think that good science writing should have an underlying persuasive element?
2. Technical writing often begins with questions such as “What is the purpose of the writing?” or “Who is your audience?” What other guiding questions do you use to formulate your writing?
3. In “Commensurability, Comparability, and Communicability,” historian and philosopher of science, Thomas Kuhn (1982), uses the term incommensurability metaphorically, taking the mathematical idea of ‘no common measure’ to mean ‘no common language’. Do you think it is possible to cross boundaries of expertise when writing scientific findings, or do we need to tailor the writing to a specific audience because it is too difficult to bridge the language gap? In other words, what happens to scientific writing when the audience doesn’t share similar expertise?

“Exploring Diversity, Exclusion, and Inclusion: A Scholarly Perspective”
Week Four Course Blog Project
Throughout this course you will read scholarly work on questions of diversity, exclusion and inclusion. You will write a weekly blog reflecting upon those issues, but rather than offering an unsubstantiated opinion on these matters, you’ll be expected to offer a unique but informed opinion supported by scholarly research and empirical evidence.
You will have freedom to choose the topic and the particular angle of the issue as you wish to explore it, but there are some clear parameters you’ll need to follow.
Each blog entry must have:
Minimum 500 words (15% penalty for falling short of the word count)
1 citation from academic source materials read that week in class. This must be cited with a page number and author. Sources may not be reused week-to-week.
1 citation of an academic source (a relevant peer-reviewed article) from outside of class. Sources may not be reused week-to-week.
1 citation of a news media article relevant to the topic.
At least 1 audio or visual element that adds substantial content to support your argument. This could be a link to a video, pictures, etc.
You’ll complete your blog each week by no later than 5pm Pacific Time, Thursday. In addition to your weekly discussion responses, please respond to at least two of your classmates’ blogs, reflecting upon what they’ve done, and at a minimum of 250 words per response. Your blog entry and responses to classmates will be graded each week. -
