Rhetoric Across Borders DEMO RHETORIC ACROSS BORDERS features twenty-one essays and six excerpts from the “In Conversation” panels convened at the sixteenth Biennial Rhetoric Society of America (RSA) Conference. Participants engaged the conference theme of “Border RHETORIC RHETORIC Rhetorics” in ways that not only reinvigorated the border as a conceptual metaphor but also challenged boundaries within rhetorical scholarship. Although the volume includes only a select representation of the work presented at the conference, each section features the diverse perspectives offered in Composition ACROSS and Communication. The first section,Between Materiality and Rhetoric, explores points of interface between rhetoric and materiality. Working from diverse periods and disciplinary orientations, the authors illuminate how attending to the mutuality between materiality and rhetoric engenders a productive revision and/or expansion of our approaches to essential aspects of rhetorical inquiry. The second section,Crossing ACR BORDERS Cultures: Refiguring Audience, Author, Text, and Borders, explores how various forms of translation, migration, and liminality can refigure our understanding of the interplay between audience, author, and text. Essays in the third section, Remapping the Political, OSS examine the diverse genres that broaden our understanding of the res publica and the tactics employed to circumscribe politics. In the fourth section, Contesting Boundaries: Science, Technology, and Nature, authors consider how shifting notions of expertise and competing epistemologies alter our conceptions of science and the environment. The selected essays in the final section,Teaching Across Divides, explore the different BORDERS boundaries that shape teaching in rhetoric and composition. Here, the authors reflect on the challenges and rewards gained by explicitly engaging the borders and boundary- work that often remains invisible to our students. These organizational groupings reflect thematic through-lines in the submissions as well as a confidence in Burke’s perspective by incongruity as a method fitting the exploration of various borderlands. The volume concludes with fragments from select “In Conversation” panels that cover a range of issues from activism and intersectionality to publishing and rhetorical theory.

San Antonio’s history reflects the constructed and contested nature of boundary-work at all lev- els—geographic, cultural, and communal—and inspired conversations that addressed the realities of material divisions while also recognizing the po- tential of intersectionality. Held during a year that marked the centennial of an organizational division between English and Communication (when public speaking teachers broke away from the National Council of Teachers of English in 1914), the conference featured twelve “In Conversation” panels that paired prominent scholars from Composition/English and Communication. These panels addressed concepts foundational to rhetorical inquiry such as agency, activism, and publics as well as issues with such shared investments as the status of rhetorical education and the role of journals in the future of rhetorical scholarship. To be sure, such conversations predate the 2014 confer- ence; however, these panels (and the selected excerpts included herein) sought to provoke new dialogues and cultivate the flow of inquiry and collaboration across the disciplinary borders of rhetoric.1 As RSA President Kendall Phillips 3 4 / Anne Teresa Demo noted, “RSA was formed in large part as a bridge across this border and that is still one of the driving forces of the association” (5). Conference participants engaged the theme of “Border Rhetorics” in ways that not only reinvigorated the border as a conceptual metaphor but also challenged boundaries within rhetorical scholarship. In addition to panels on contemporary geo-political borders, panelists leveraged the sense of move- ment and divergent cultures

  • More Details on the Efforts to Empower Students Through Citizen Science
    THE WHITE HOUSE Office of Science and Technology Policy March 23, 2015 FACT SHEET: Empowering Students and Others through Citizen Science and Crowdsourcing Citizen science and crowdsourcing projects are powerful tools for providing students with skills needed to excel in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Volunteers in citizen science, for example, gain hands-on experience doing real science, and in many cases take that learning outside of the traditional classroom setting. As part of the 5th White House Science Fair, the Obama Administration and a broader community of companies, non-profits, and others are announcing new steps to increase the ability of more students and members of the public to participate in the scientific process through citizen science and crowdsourcing projects. New Steps Being Announced by the Administration Installation of a Rain Gauge in the White House Garden: The White House, in collaboration with the National Atmospheric and Oceanographic Administration (NOAA) and the National Park Service (NPS), will install a new rain gauge in the First Lady’s Kitchen Garden as the White House becomes a new participant in the CoCoRaHS (Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network) citizen science project. The White House will begin making contributions as an additional data source to the citizen scientist project during Science Fair. There are millions of citizen scientists in this country willingly contributing valuable time and effort to help advance our collective understanding of the world around us. The CoCoRaHS Network’s over 20,000+ active volunteers serve as the largest source of daily precipitation data in our country, reporting measurement from coastal lowlands to the high peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park.

  • Request for Information to Improve Federal Scientific Integrity Policies (86 FR 34064)
    July 27, 2021 Office of Science and Technology Policy Executive Office of the President Eisenhower Executive Office Building 1650 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20504 Submitted electronically to [email protected] Re: Request for Information to Improve Federal Scientific Integrity Policies (86 FR 34064) The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), Association of American Universities (AAU), Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU), and Council on Governmental Relations (COGR), collectively the “Associations,” appreciate the opportunity to provide feedback to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) to help improve the effectiveness of Federal scientific integrity policies in enhancing public trust in science. The Associations strongly support the efforts of the White House in addressing issues of federal scientific integrity and public trust in science. We further appreciate the swift issuance of the Presidential Memorandum on Restoring Trust in Government Through Scientific Integrity and Evidence-Based Policymaking and establishment of the Scientific Integrity Task Force. These actions seek to formalize and standardize scientific integrity through an all-of-government approach. Protecting the integrity of science and ensuring the use of evidence in policymaking should be a national priority across administrations. These efforts come at a critical time for the United States. Public trust in federal science has been shaken by anti-science rhetoric, lack of transparency, and questions about the integrity of science conducted and supported by the federal government. At the same time, building and maintaining trust in this science has never been more important as we confront continuing threats, including a global pandemic and climate change.

Citizen science goals include enhancing scientific knowledge generation, contributing to societally relevant questions, fostering scientific literacy in society and transforming science communication. These aims, however, are rarely evaluated, and project managers as well as prospective funders are often at a loss when it comes to assessing and reviewing the quality and impact of citizen science activities. To ensure and improve the quality of citizen science outcomes evaluation methods are required for planning, self-evaluation and training development as well as for informing funding reviews and impact assessments. Here, based on an in-depth review of the characteristics and diversity of citizen science activities and current evaluation practices, we develop an open framework for evaluating diverse citizen science activities, ranging from projects initiated by grassroots initiatives to those led by academic scientists. The framework incorporates the social, the scientific and the socio- ecological/economic perspectives of citizen science and thus offers a comprehensive collection of indicators at a glance.

Although there is growing interest in the subject, it is worth asking whether the research has been approached considering citizens’ needs or citizens’ participation. The main objective of this study is to analyse whether energy efficiency research has adopted a citizen science perspective. Using scientometric methods, the SCOPUS and CORDIS databases were consulted and a document search strategy was developed to gather information on publications and projects. The analysis revealed that, out of 265 projects under the Seventh Framework Programme on Energy Efficiency, only seven (3%) were related to citizen science. Although there is a large volume of publications on energy efficiency (over 200,000) and a considerable number of publications on citizen science (>30,000 articles), only 336 documents were identified that deal with both topics.

  • Philosophical Foundations for Citizen Science
    Elliott, KC and Rosenberg, J. 2019. Philosophical Foundations for Citizen Science. Citizen Science: Theory and Practice, 4(1): 9, pp. 1–9, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/cstp.155 ESSAY Philosophical Foundations for Citizen Science Kevin C. Elliott* and Jon Rosenberg† Citizen science is increasingly being recognized as an important approach for gathering data, addressing community needs, and creating fruitful engagement between citizens and professional scientists. Nevertheless, the implementation of citizen science projects can be hampered by a variety of barriers. Some of these are practical (e.g., lack of funding or lack of training for both professional scientists and volunteers), but others are theoretical barriers having to do with concerns about whether citizen science lives up to standards of good scientific practice. These concerns about the overall quality of citizen science are ethically significant, because it is ethically problematic to waste resources on low-quality research, and it is also problematic to denigrate or dismiss research that is of high quality. Scholarship from the philosophy of science is well-placed to address these theoretical barriers, insofar as it is fun- damentally concerned about the nature of good scientific inquiry. This paper examines three important concerns: (1) the worry that citizen science is not appropriately hypothesis-driven; (2) the worry that citizen science does not generate sufficiently high-quality data or use sufficiently rigorous methods; and (3) the worry that citizen science is tainted by advocacy and is therefore not sufficiently disinterested. We show that even though some of these concerns may be relevant to specific instances of citizen sci- ence, none of these three concerns provides a compelling reason to challenge the overall quality of citizen science in principle.

  • Terms Related to Citizen Science
    Terms Related to Citizen Science Citizen science includes a broad range of participation types and ways of collecting, analyzing, and using information. Other terms are used to describe specific contexts for how participants collect data, but all are related to the broadly recognized term of “citizen science” and share common elements. Notably, these terms and concepts have evolved over time, with sometimes shifting and overlapping meanings. Although “citizen science” is the widely recognized and accepted term, it is not without controversy. For example, some might associate the word ‘citizen’ with national citizenship, which can be a sensitive subject. Indigenous groups also might not identify with the term ‘citizen science’. In this document, “citizen” is equivalent to the concept of the “global citizen”, which includes any person interested in participating in citizen science. Below, we provide definitions and citations to some of the more widely accepted current definitions. These various terms and concepts stand in contrast to conventional approaches to resource management and scientific research, which tend to be top-down, without substantial community involvement.1 Civic Ecology – “A field of interdisciplinary study concerned with individual, community, and environmental outcomes of community-based environmental stewardship practices, and the interactions of such practices with people and other organisms, communities, governance institutions, and the ecosystems in which those practices take place” and “civic ecology practices are
