The new Literacy and Science working group is organizing a workshop to coincide with the invited lecture by Jon Miller (University of Michigan). Miller has tracked scientific literacy for more than 30 years. The U.S. public’s knowledge of science is generally higher than in other developed nations in part, says Miller, because this is the only major country where most colleges and universities require students to study science. Yet, according to Miller, the pace of advances in the sciences indicates that access to science information is an ongoing necessity. The aim of the workshop is to explore ways to extend scientific literacy both within and beyond higher education. Contact Jonathan Buehl, buehl.7@osu.edu or Susan Hanson, hanson.94@osu.edu.
