Abstract

We worked with low-income participants in interactive, storytelling-based community workshops to discuss results from a scientific project related to harmful algal blooms. We used two story-based workshop formats—a science-fiction story and a personal-research-account story. In this Research Note, we reflect on two main topics: a comparison between the two story-based approaches and work with marginalized participants. With our reflections, our aim is to help inform future efforts that wish to incorporate science fiction approaches and/or work with marginalized populations in science communication.

在工作坊中使用科幻小说和设计思维与低收入、边缘化社区分享研究成果

我们与低收入的参与者一起参加互动式、以讲故事为基础的社区研讨会，讨论与有害藻华有关的科学项目的结果。我们采用了两种基于故事的研讨会形式——一个是科幻故事，另一个是个人研究叙述故事。在这篇研究报告中，我们思考了两个主要主题:两种基于故事的方法之间的比较，以及与边缘化参与者的合作。通过我们的反思，我们的目标是帮助告知未来希望在科学传播中融入科幻方法和/或与边缘人群合作的努力。
