Routledge Handbook of Public Communication of Science and Technology
Communicating science and technology is a high priority of many research and policy institutions, a concern of many other private and public bodies, and an established subject of training and education.In the past few decades, the field has developed and expanded significantly, both in terms of professional practice, and in terms of research and reflection.At the same time, particularly in recent years, interactions between science and society have become a topic of heated public and political debates, touching issues like quality and credibility of information, trust in science and scientific actors and institutions and the roles of experts in crises and emergencies.This book provides a state-of-the-art review of this fast-growing and increasingly important area, through an examination of research done on the main actors, issues and arenas involved. The third edition of the Handbook brings the reviews up-to-date and deepens the analysis.As well as substantial re-working of many chapters, it includes four new chapters addressing enduring themes (science publics, science-media theories), recent trends (art-science interactions) and new proposed insights on science communication as culture and as 'the social conversation around science'.New contributors are added to the group of leading scholars in the field featured in the previous editions. The Handbook is a student-friendly resource, but its scope and expert contributions will equally appeal to practitioners and professionals in science communication.Combining the perspectives of different disciplines and of different geographical and cultural contexts, this original text provides an interdisciplinary as well as a global approach to public communication of science and technology.It is a valuable resource, notably an indispensable guide to the published work in the field, for students, researchers, educators and professionals in science communication, media and journalism studies, sociology, history of science, and science and technology studies. Chapter 8 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

What is a communication analysis?
A communication analysis is the process of examining and evaluating the effectiveness of communication within a specific context or organization. This can involve studying the methods, channels, and content of communication to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. Communication analysis can also involve assessing the impact of communication on relationships, decision-making, and overall organizational performance. The goal of communication analysis is to gain insights into how communication functions and to make recommendations for enhancing its effectiveness.

What is sensor technology and communication?
Sensor technology refers to the use of sensors to detect and measure physical properties such as temperature, pressure, light, and motion. These sensors can then communicate this information to other devices or systems through various communication methods such as wired connections, wireless signals, or the internet. This allows for real-time monitoring and control of physical environments, enabling applications in areas such as smart homes, industrial automation, healthcare, and environmental monitoring. Overall, sensor technology and communication play a crucial role in enabling the collection and transmission of data for various applications, ultimately leading to improved efficiency, safety, and convenience.

What is an example of communication technology?
One example of communication technology is email. Email allows individuals to send messages, documents, and media to others instantly over the internet. It is a widely used form of communication in both personal and professional settings, enabling quick and efficient exchange of information. Email also allows for the organization of messages into folders, the attachment of files, and the ability to communicate with multiple recipients simultaneously.
-
How do I write a communication analysis?
To write a communication analysis, start by selecting a communication piece to analyze, such as a speech, advertisement, or conversation. Next, identify the purpose, audience, and context of the communication. Then, analyze the key elements of the communication, such as the message, tone, language, and nonverbal cues. Finally, evaluate the effectiveness of the communication in achieving its intended goals and consider any potential improvements or alternative strategies that could enhance the communication.

Human-Machine Communication : Rethinking Communication, Technology, and Ourselves
From virtual assistants to social robots, people are increasingly interacting with intelligent and highly communicative technologies throughout their daily lives.This shift from communicating with people to communicating with people and machines challenges how scholars have theorized and studied communication.Human-Machine Communication: Rethinking Communication, Technology, and Ourselves addresses this transition in how people communicate and who, or what, they communicate with and the implications of this evolution for communication research.Geared toward scholars interested in people’s interactions with technology, this book serves as an introduction to human-machine communication (HMC) as a specific area of study within communication (encompassing human-computer interaction, human-robot interaction, and human-agent interaction) and to the research possibilities of HMC.This collection includes papers presented as part of a scholarly conference on HMC, along with invited works from noted researchers.Topics include defining HMC, theoretical approaches to HMC, applications of HMC, and the larger implications of HMC for self and society.The research presented here focuses on people’s interactions with multiple technologies (artificial intelligence, algorithms, and robots) used within different contexts (home, workplace, education, journalism, and healthcare) from a variety of epistemological and methodological approaches (empirical, rhetorical, and critical/cultural).Overall, Human-Machine Communication provides readers with an understanding of HMC in a way that supports and promotes further scholarly inquiry in a growing area of communication research.
