Core curriculum helps trainees communicate science

Trainees have reported that the IGERT core course greatly increased their facility in communicating science to a general audience via instruction in writing fact sheets, briefing statements, and op-eds. For example, as part of the REACH IGERT core course on the Delta, REACH trainee Sarah Myrhe wrote a fact sheet used by one of instructors in a legislative hearing with California legislators on the complex and highly politically charged water use issues in the State of California.
