SCBC Communications Assistant

SCBC publishes dozens of communications pieces every year to promote projects in our field of ecological stewardship. Among these articles are systematic reviews of relevant literature, which analyze the progression of research within our field. SCBC also creates outreach pieces (social media/print media/presentation decks/outreach boards) to various audiences. We would like to collaborate with students to support our literature review process by categorizing papers and summarizing important findings. This allows us to extract and process data more easily. We would also like to collaborate on creating communications pieces for 3 different SCBC projects, Green Shores, Access to Nature, and Cats and Birds. This will involve several different steps for the students, including: Familiarizing themselves with our research and the types of academic papers that we are interested in. Reading studies relevant to our area of research. Applying the categorization scheme to classify relevant studies. Summarizing important results from relevant studies. Building Powerpoint decks Writing social media promotions Creating outreach boards Bonus steps in the process would also include: Working with researchers/communication experts to draft a publication based on the results.
