Overview
Science is central to modern life and arguably central to the survival of humanity, which makes the fact that there is so much bad science out there even worse. This course illuminates what makes for good (and bad) science and science communication from different perspectives, covering the humanities, the natural sciences, and the social sciences. The lectures are designed to stimulate discussion, and the seminars provide practical experience with the development, testing, and communication of theories. The lectures and seminars are given by experts in their respective fields, including psychology, neuroscience, medicine, history, statistics, physics, philosophy, rhetoric, biology, and magic. **Outline for distance course**: The course uses Uppsala University's learning platform Studium. The course's video conference tool is Zoom. The teaching consists of lectures via video conference and recordings and documents in Studium. Video lectures are held in the evenings from 18:00 to 19:45. Teacher support takes place in Studium and via email. The course has no physical meetings.
