This document discusses how brands can create engaging branded content by partnering with entertainment properties. It provides two case studies:
1) Kia's partnership with The Voice, which included branded videos, social media promotions, and contests to promote the message of "enabling dreams." This increased brand recall for Kia.
2) Hyundai's partnership with The Walking Dead, which included a custom zombie survival vehicle, social media promotions, and extending the partnership between seasons. This helped elevate Hyundai's profile and positioned the brand to "face nightmares."
The document advocates for branded content that adds value to the entertainment, is shareable on social media, and has brand partnerships with shared

The document discusses research into children's perspectives on science assessment. It describes using a children's rights-based methodology, including children's participation through Children's Research Advisory Groups (CRAGs). The CRAGs were involved in the initial survey design, providing input and feedback. The research team then analyzed survey results and discussed interpretations with the CRAGs. Key conclusions were that most children viewed science assessments positively, and including children's perspectives leads to better decisions about their education.Sookman itcan annaul_ip_update_copyright_

This presentation discusses the epistemology of living organizations by exploring the biological and evolutionary foundations of knowledge and life. It summarizes Karl Popper's evolutionary epistemology and theory of objective knowledge as problem solving. It discusses autopoiesis theory and how life and knowledge emerge from self-producing systems. It then explores how these biological principles apply to understanding organizations as complex adaptive systems that develop knowledge through problem solving and selection over time.

This is the 12th of 23 presentations in a series introducing and outlining my hypertext book project, "Application Holy Wars or a New Reformation - A Fugue on the Theory of Knowledge. The project explores the interactions of technology and cognition in the extraordinary evolutionary history of the human species. This presentation wraps up my discussion of the history of technologies used to enhance and extend human cognition. Because most of what I had planned for this talk has already been covered and/or discussed in the previous presentations, I thought that it would be much better to take the chance for a general review discussion of the main take-home messages to now, and to give a preview what remains to be covered in the second half of the series.

Media Audiences an Introduction
An introduction to what an audience is, how this relates to media studies and why audiences are important. Presentation talks about categorisation, audience fragmentation, the impact of new technology and links to help support your learning.
Research and Social Media
Researchers need to communicate their work more broadly to have greater societal impact. There are many communication channels available, including social media, blogs, and online forums. Some best practices are maintaining a policy blog like CAP Reform that provides commentary on agricultural issues, and running an online forum like Foodlog that facilitates discussion between citizens, researchers, and policymakers. As communication norms change, journals like EuroChoices may need to reconsider their business models and explore options like open access to improve accessibility and impact.

Film and audience
An audience refers to individuals or groups that consume media content such as radio listeners, TV viewers, newspaper/magazine readers, or website visitors. Audiences are important because media organizations produce content to attract audiences and make a profit. New digital technologies have led to fragmented audiences across multiple platforms, making it harder for media companies to measure audiences. Companies profile audiences by demographics like gender, age, socioeconomic status, and interests to target advertising and content to attract the right audiences.
CATCH-UP-FRIDAY-ART-Q3_PRINT-MEDIA-1.pptx
The document discusses the evolution of print media and how it has adapted to new technologies and changing consumer preferences. While once dominant, print media now shares the media landscape with online news and blogs. Newspapers have transitioned to offering both print and digital editions, and magazines have embraced niche audiences. Books also continue to be popular despite e-books, due to their tangible nature. Print materials like pamphlets and brochures remain useful for advertising, education, and advocacy due to their tangible nature and ability to engage the senses. The document encourages activities to understand vocabulary and discuss how print media has adapted and its advantages.

132870440-Upwell-Pilot-Report-2013
Upwell conducted a pilot program to increase online conversations about ocean issues through "Big Listening" and campaigning. Big Listening involves tracking online conversations at scale to understand volume and spikes. Campaigning uses this data to drive more attention to existing pro-ocean content. Upwell saw significant increases in conversation volume and spike frequency for topics like sustainable seafood and overfishing after launching their distributed network of ocean communicators. They provided tools and opportunities to this network to amplify important content and conversations, helping to condition the climate for ocean policy changes.
Chap17public relations-publicity-and-corporate-advertising-1225869851764540-9-4
Public relations involves managing relationships with the public through determining public attitudes, identifying company policies, and developing communication programs. The goals are to build relationships with key audiences like customers, employees and investors. Marketing public relations uses publicity to build excitement for products through news stories and by influencing opinion leaders. Common public relations tools include press releases, media kits, and community involvement. Effectiveness is often measured by tracking media coverage and impressions over time. Publicity involves generating news coverage and has benefits like perceived credibility but less control than advertising. Corporate advertising promotes company image and viewpoints through campaigns like image advertising, event sponsorships, advocacy and cause-related marketing.
Communicating risk
The document discusses the importance of communicating uncertainty when providing predictions or forecasts. It argues that simply stating a predicted value and the level of uncertainty is not enough. Effective communication of uncertainty requires providing reasons for uncertainty, the range of plausible outcomes, and information on the relative likelihood of different outcomes when possible. For deep uncertainties where likelihoods cannot be quantified, it is important to describe the nature of the uncertainties and indicate the prediction is just one possibility. Authorities should also communicate monitoring activities and contingency plans to address uncertainty.
SCC 2014 - Data visualisation for public engagement
Data Visualisation and Information Design are increasingly employed in print, broadcast and web media to convey complex ideas or bring simple ones to life. The tools for maps, infographics and visualisations are becoming cheaper and easier to use, and the range of approaches is diversifying. At the same time, data of all kinds is becoming more accessible, whether on research funding (through the Gateways to Research platform), Open Government Data, or the results of individual research projects – as Open Access initiatives to make sharing scientific data a key element of journal publications. We will cover basic ideas and examples of visualisation for newcomers, how visualisation exists as part of wider engagement goals and include a more critical discussion about what visualisation needs to do in order to be a meaningful mechanism for engagement and participation.

SCC 2014 - What is wellbeing and what does it mean for science communication?British Science Association
The document discusses the concepts of well-being and happiness. It summarizes research conducted in Bolton, UK in 1938 and again in 2014 measuring factors important for happiness. The three most important factors in 1938 were security, knowledge, and religion, while in 2014 they were security, good humor, and equality. The document also discusses various definitions and approaches to measuring well-being.SCC 2014 - The role of design in science communication
Design can improve science communication by making scientific concepts and data more accessible and understandable. Examples of how design has helped communicate science include using visual metaphors and simulations to illustrate uncertain or probabilistic concepts. Collaboration between scientists and designers is important, with designers bringing communication expertise and scientists providing content knowledge. The potential of design includes using programming and interactive tools to enable broader public participation in science by making mathematical and data concepts more accessible.

He aha te mea nui o te ao
What is the most important thing in the world?
He tangata, he tangata, he tangata
It is the people, it is the people, it is the people
This Maori proverb emphasises that people are the most important thing in the world: a concept we will explore in this session serving as a reminder of the importance of tailoring engagement towards your audience’s needs. We will present findings from research commissioned by the Wellcome Trust, which looked at reaching young people from low socio-economic backgrounds, alongside research commissioned by the British Science Association exploring how to include under-represented audiences in National Science and Engineering Week. Comparisons with other cultures will be presented by the University of the West of England, with a case study of engagement with Maori in a New Zealand science festival.

SCC 2014 - Setting content free: How and why you should use open licences in ...British Science Association
Wikipedia, open access journals and social media have all transformed the way we look at copyright, and have brought the concept of open licences (such as Creative Commons) into the mainstream.
This movement offers great opportunities for science communicators, by opening up new avenues for communicating work and providing a wide range of high quality content at no cost.
This session will look at the practicalities of open licensing of science communication materials, for content producers (academics, press officers), custodians (museums, libraries, archives) and users (science shows, blogs and publications).
The session will give some case studies of good practice in this field, but the majority of the hour will be given over to practical exercises covering how, why and when to use open licences. This will be followed by a group discussion in which session participants and the panellists can share experiences and ask questions about the issues raised.
Speakers: Robert Kiley (Wellcome Trust), Rosie Coates (science made simple), Oli Usher (UCL) SCC 2014 - Schools and scientists: Doing research together combined
Scientific research is a journey into the unknown, so teaching science with tried and tested practicals does not prepare students for the excitement and uncertainty of scientific discovery. Undertaking actual scientific research provides considerable learning opportunities for pupils and provides researchers with the opportunity to engage young people with their work in a rich and rewarding manner. Partnerships between researchers and young scientists can contribute to scientific breakthroughs and provide real insights and skills for aspiring young scientists. However, such approaches are not without their challenges. You will be presented with cases studies from space science and plant pathology research followed by the chance to engage in round table discussions with teachers, researchers, funders and science communicators involved in these projects. This will provide you the opportunity to discuss how you can involve schools and young people in research or support them to carry out their own scientific investigations.

Given that insufficient young people are choosing to study STEM subjects and that the profile of those who do pursue STEM careers is too narrow, we are challenging three very different providers of informal science communication to measure the impact of their work. To do this our speakers will consider how science communicators can build sustainable business models that successfully balance impact and values against the need for funding and we will question if the sector is hampered by a perception that the only credible communicators of science are active researchers.
Facilitator: Tim Slingsby (British Council) Speakers: Wendy Sadler (science made simple), Jonathan Longfellow (Mad Science East Midlands), Eduardo Sáenz de Cabezón (The Big Van Theory)SCC 2014 - How science policy really works
This document discusses the roles that learned societies and institutions can play in raising issues and influencing science policy. It examines what policymakers need, which is access to evidence and clarity, and what learned societies have to offer, such as expertise and convening power. It also considers the challenges of being heard by policymakers and ensuring science policy discussions are timely and politically aware. Finally, it looks at the extent to which public opinion should influence science policy and examples of how it has, such as through focus groups or evidence-based advocacy campaigns.
SCC 2014 - Day of discovery: Running your own public attitudes to science day
SCC 2014 - Day of discovery: Running your own public attitudes to science dayBritish Science Association
Public Attitudes to Science 2014 (PAS 2014) is the fifth in the series of studies looking at the UK public’s attitudes to science, scientists and science policy. PAS 2014 mixed survey research with a range of qualitative research strands, one of which was our “Day of Discovery” workshop. The Day of Discovery aimed to get the public themselves to tell us the best ways to engage people with science, and to generate new ideas for scientists, science communicators and policymakers to connect with the public. Based on this event, we have created a toolkit giving tips on how to use the findings from the PAS 2014 survey to start debates about better engagement with science. This session will present the toolkit, and explore how it can be used effectively with different audiences.
Speakers: Kerry Seelhoff (BIS), Sarah Pope (Ipsos MORI), Ben Johnson (Graphic Science), Chair: Katherine Mathieson (British Science Association) SCC 2014 - All the fun of festivals combined
Novel approaches to engagement activities that use narrative and immersive environments to create cohesive experiences.
In this session we will share our insights, experiences and learning from some of the unique festival experiences created in 2013 by the Contemporary Science team at the Science Museum. These festivals ranged from narrative driven games to researchers embedded in immersive environments all creating cohesive and memorable experiences. Specific engagement examples will highlight collaborations with research groups, theatre companies and artists. This session is relevant to any organisation, centre or individual looking to engage their audiences through interactive, immersive and theatrical experiences.
Speakers: Nicola Burghall (Science Museum), Daniel Richardson (UCL), John Hunter (non zero one), Chair: Jenny Jopson (Francis Crick Institute)

This document discusses crisis management for events and provides guidance on crisis planning. It notes that the organization plans up to 30 events per year with 100-150 attendees on average. It defines a crisis as a difficult decision that must be made. Effective crisis planning can help avoid and react to problems through contingency planning and learning from other organizations. A crisis plan should outline operational response procedures and communication strategies. The key stages of crisis management include pre-crisis planning to minimize risk, managing the actual crisis by appointing a coordinator and response team, and post-crisis evaluation and communication. Effective communication during and after a crisis is also emphasized.More from British Science Association (20)

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
