In this paper we present a qualitative analysis of natural history museum visitor interaction around a multi-touch tabletop exhibit called DeepTree that we designed around concepts of evolution and common descent. DeepTree combines several large scie... Read More about “Whoa! We’re going deep in the trees!”: Patterns of collaboration around an interactive information visualization exhibit.

Dynamic framing in the communication of scientific research: texts and interactions (2015)
Journal Article
Davis, P., & Russ, R. S. (2015). Dynamic framing in the communication of scientific research: texts and interactions. Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 52(2), https://doi.org/10.1002/tea.21189

The fields of science education and science communication share the overarching goal of helping non-experts and non-members of the professional science community develop knowledge of the content and processes of scientific research. However, the spec... Read More about Dynamic framing in the communication of scientific research: texts and interactions.
