1 JCOM Masterclasses Final report 2014 and programme The project JCOM Masterclasses are intensive, short training courses to empower scientists, senior- middle managers of cultural institutions, public administration officers, NGO and company employees, and other professionals; to communicate science, socio- economical sciences, humanities and the natural and historical heritage to different audiences; through events, media, science exhibitions, museums and visitor centres. Each course lasts 5 days and includes theoretical presentations, practical workshops and the presentation of international best practices. Keynote speakers are leading professionals in the industries, academics and other experts at an international level. The courses are organized within the activities of JCOM, SISSA Journal of Science Communication, an open access, peer reviewed journal dedicated to science communication (jcom.sissa.it). The courses are organized in Trieste (Italy) by SISSA Medialab in partnership with SISSA the International School for Advanced Studies, ICTP the International Centre for Theoretical Physics, ICGEB the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste, and in collaboration with the Architect Association of the Friuli Venezia- Giulia region. Venue of all courses is the Adriatico Guesthouse of the ICTP, Trieste, Italy. SISSA Medialab is a wholly owned subsidiary of SISSA University (International School for Advanced Studies). SISSA Medialab was set up in 2005 but its roots are grounded in the work of a group of scientists and communication experts who worked in the early 1990s at SISSA, to develop highly innovative projects and technologies for the communication of science inside and outside the scientific community. SISSA Medialab also provides consultancy, management, media, evaluation and staff training for the development of new museums and science centres. It is involved in several action/research European funded projects aiming at the development of new methodologies, the related staff training, and the methodological quality assessment. In the last 10 years SISSA Medialab has trained approximately 3000 among scientists, museums staff and other professionals. Speakers and tutors are leading professionals, researchers in science communication and experts at an international level. Among others Sharon Ament, Director of the Museum of London; Gordon Rankmore, former Head of exhibitions of the Natural History Museum of London; Lynn Scarff, Director of the Science Gallery of the Trinity College, Dublin; and Barbara Streicher, Director of the ScienceNezwerk, the Austrian network of Science centres (see full list of teachers and their profiles at the end of the document).

2 2014 Programme In 2014 four courses were delivered: Facilitating the debate on the scientific and technological progress Trieste, 1-5 September 2014 Developing successful exhibitions Trieste, September 2014 Developing successful museums and science centres Trieste, October 2014 Communicating current research to different audiences Trieste November 2014 Main contents and objectives of the four courses were as follows: Facilitating the debate on the scientific and technological progress 1-5 September 2014 The course aims at empowering participants to tackle with controversial issues regarding scientific applications and sustainable development in fields such as personalized medicine, synthetic biology, climate change, energy transition, nanotechnology, neurosciences, etc. Learning outcomes are defined as follows: How to identify potentially controversial issues; How to collect information on the public perception of science; Which formats exist to promote the debate on scientific governance and sustainable development; How to organize and facilitate science cafés, discussion games, scenario workshops and other participatory procedures; How to evaluate the effectiveness of their activities. The course has been designed so to give participants the opportunity to discuss their own project with speakers and tutors. Developing successful exhibitions September 2014 The course presents best practices to develop interactive exhibitions with hands- on exhibits, multimedia, video installations and other new technologies and approaches. Learning outcomes are defined as follows: How to develop the scientific contents of the exhibition; How to include visitors needs into the design; How to develop a narrative through exhibits and objects; How to choose media and technologies; How to develop a content and design brief for architects and designers; How to plan the work and organize the team. The course has been designed so to give participants the opportunity to discuss their own project with speakers and tutors.

3 Developing successful museums and science centres October 2014 The course presented the best practices to develop and operate educational programmes, science centres and museums relating to our natural and cultural heritage. The course helps participants who are already, or plan to be, involved in such projects to set their goals, to choose among current opportunities, to build up teams, to develop a master- plan, to choose a marketing and branding strategy, etc. Learning outcomes are defined as follows: How to define mission and objectives; The significance of the brand in the proposed development, communication and marketing strategies; How to identify potential audiences and the importance of stake- holders involvement; How to identify and plan appropriate spaces and facilities to meet the needs of the organisation and the visitors; How to plan and integrate programmes and associated facilities into the development; How to plan the work and organize the teams with a Project Execution Plan. The course as been designed so to give participants the opportunity to discuss their own project with speakers and tutors. Communicating current research to different audiences November 2014 The training course aimed at improving scientists personal skills to communicate the value and the results of current research. Learning outcomes are defined as follows: How to know the needs of the different audiences; How to find information on the public perception of science and technology; How to present their research to different audiences in public conferences and science cafés; How to write news and essays for magazines and newspapers for the lay public; How to communicate with policy makers; How to tackle difficult challenges such as risk communication and controversial issues; How to evaluate the effectiveness of their activities. The course has been designed so to give participants the opportunity to discuss their own project with speakers and tutors.

4 Communication, audience interest and registrations The courses were advertised the first 6 months of 2014 through: a dedicated website; partner institutions websites; dedicated newsletters; distribution of materials on several international conferences. Moreover letters were sent to: the mailing lists of Trieste international scientific institutions; the mailing list of former participants to science communication courses organized by SISSA; Medialab and partners; the mailing list of Ecsite and Red Pop; the mailing list of the Architect regional Association of Friuli- Venezia Giulia Region. Grants to support the participation were offered thanks to SISSA and SISSA Medialab (grants reserved to SISSA Phd students already involved in outreach activities), ICGEB (grants for ICGEB staff working in the Trieste branch) and ICTP (20 grants for candidates working in developing countries). A fee reduction has been offered to participants whose organizations belong to Ecsite (the European network of science museums and science centres) and RedPop (the Latin- American network of science museums and science centres). JCOM Materclasses received an enthusiast answer from the targeted audiences: for a maximum of 100 places 276 applications were received, from 54 different countries. However, many of applicants, although being in possession of appropriate titles and motivations, were not able to participate because lacking of funds to cover the costs of participation. This is especially the case of scientists working in developing countries who did not receive a grant; nevertheless some participant from low- income country individually (or throughout their institutions) supported the participation costs. Besides the 276 received applications, many more expressed their interest but did not actually register because aware that they will be excluded from the grant scheme, in particular interested candidates from East European countries. The majority of applying scientists showed a sincere interest in the field, motivating their applications with their engagement in current outreach projects or arguing the importance of science communication with lay public in their specific fields of research, as in the case of the many applicants working in forestry, agriculture, health, nuclear energy. But also scientists working in fields more aloof from the general knowledge and direct applications (like astrophysics and cosmology) applied in large number and appear to be involved in important projects for the public engagement in science and technology such as visitors centres of research institutes and universities to be opened in the next years. Consistent was also the interest for the courses by the community of professionals working in science communication, and many important museums and science centres sent representatives of their institution. Thanks to the partnership with the Architect Association of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region two Masterclasses were recognized with credits for the in- service compulsory training of Italian architects. 6 Italian professionals participated to the courses. However, the advertising targeting especially Italian architects and other exhibition developers was organised late in the spring, and it can be expected that the 2015 edition of the courses will receive a bigger number of applications from this particular community.

7 All participants were invited to fill an online survey before coming to Trieste, in which they were asked to describe: their current profession and institutions (or company or associations), their involvement in projects similar to the ones tackled by the course, their motivations to participate and expectation, etc. These data were available to speakers to better tailor their presentations and workshops. Evaluation of the 2014 courses All courses were carefully evaluated during and after the courses. The data of the formative evaluation were collected through: Session by session evaluation forms, which asked participants to give a mark (from 1, the minimum, to 4, the maximum) for 4 criteria (interest, relevance to my work, applicability of the content, quality of materials) and included a space for free comments for each session. The forms were distributed just after the end of every session; no form was distributed for workshops in which participants worked on their own project; A final questionnaire, which included an evaluation form similar to the session by session form but aiming at evaluating the course as a whole, plus open questions to explore expectations, best and worst of the course, gained competences, suggestions for a future new edition of the course, etc. The results have been overall extremely positive for the four courses. The course experience has been highly appreciated. Participants reported to have gained theoretical knowledge, practical guidelines, new ideas and inspiration. Each course, when evaluated as a whole, received on average a very high score (3.7 out of 4 for the first course, 3,8 for the second, 3.7 for the third and 3,6 for the last one) and participants expressed their appreciation with personal comments. The results of the evaluation of the course as a whole for the four courses are shown in Chart 1, 2, 3 and 4.

8 17 participants attended the course Facilitating the debate on the scientific and technological progress: 8 from Italy, 2 from Mexico, 2 from Brazil, 1 from Switzerland, 1 from Poland, 1 from Portugal, 1 from India and 1 from Pakistan. Examples of free comments for the course: I feel more like questioning myself about my attitude towards the audience, looking for the aspects that create a distance and trying to erase them, as communication can never be a monologue but needs to be an exchange between peers. A deeper scientific knowledge empowers non- experts to analyze critically their experiences, but this can happen only when none of the parts is feeling judged or patronized. This becomes especially relevant when considering controversial issues, in which often the public might feel disrespected or ignored for having an opinion non conformal to what an educator might be expecting. A more respectful attitude is required to encourage discussion and critical thinking. More structured tools in order to plan my future activities. Overall idea of complexities involved, possible scenarios. Sharing opportunities well balanced with theory. Resuming previous competences while integrating/expanding with added tools, ideas to think about. The best thing was to feel uncomfortable with the talks and discussions, because I grow somehow. No worst things. Another good thing was the diversity of the group.

9 20 participants attended the course Developing successful exhibitions: 13 from Italy, 2 from Portugal, 1 from Ethiopia, 1 from Sweden, 1 from Germany, 1 from The Netherlands and 1 from Brazil. Examples of free comments for the course: Lots of experience I can apply in my work. Not only in the area of exhibition, but also in other areas. I have gained valuable detailed information that I will use for sure in my projects. Especially regarding project management, key phases, the relation between client, designer, producer. Contacts, knowledge about how exhibition projects work in different countries, exhibition design do/don t, project management, evaluation tips. I ve seen a lot of great examples of exhibition design. Great to hear from experts who have really working in the field. Great you were so open to share your expertise and knowledge. Thank for all the tips & tricks. I find a lot of the things I have learned here will be useful for my work- project management, key phases, creative processes, understanding visitors... A lot of other aspects are more a validation of what I am doing so far. But overall there was nothing that was not useful for me. I have learned a lot, so, thank you!

10 21 participants attended the course Developing successful museums and science centres: 12 from Italy, 2 from Portugal, 1 from Brazil, 1 from Romania, 1 from Argentina, 1 from Ecuador, 1 from Pakistan, 1 from Cuba and 1 from India. Examples of free comments for the course: Congratulations!! I have had an excellent experience with you J Thank you very much! My science museum will be a better place after this course. Excellent organization, personal commitment from SISSA people. Professors were professionals and very familiar at the same time. Always consider how any piece of information can be presented focusing on applicability. But the masterclass is already excellent! Congratulations for the work!!! 23 participants attended the course Communicating current research with various audiences: 13 from Italy, 2 from Nigeria, 1 from Cote d Ivoire, 1 from Belgium, 1 from Romania, 1 from Costa Rica, 1 from China, 1 fron Spain, 1 from Ethiopia and 1 from Ghana. Examples of free comments for the course: Thank your JCOM Masterclasses for opening our eyes to see the importance of science communication and showing us how best do it. Despite few remarks, my overall opinion is that this JCOM is EXTREMELY USEFUL and also well done, well organized. Congratulations! Good diversity of topics touched during the sessions and excellent choice of workshop activities which were well organized.

11 Preliminary programme Considered the success of the courses first edition, courses will be repeated in 2015 with an extension in 2016 (i.e. covering the whole academic year).
