Assistant Professor, Rhetoric and Professional Communication, Iowa State University
Social Media, Expertise, and Science
This lecture will examine the ways that changes in our society and the way we process and store information is changing what it means to be an expert, to "know" something, and to "do" science. What if Einstein did his best work via Twitter? What if Darwin blogged about the Galapagos? What if there was a rap song on YouTube about the Large Hadron Collider?
