The topics we discussed in this class are immensely applicable to all types of scientists, and very important this day in age.#caltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

Yes, especially on Twitter. I did not have a Twitter account, and I didn't realize how important it is in science communication.#caltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

I think personal branding is an important topic to cover, but I'm not sure how much I gained from filling out the workbook. #caltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@red_lhota @Sarah_Mojarad It often seems like the two are strongly correlated, especially when a crisis actually happens. #caltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad I found the section about crises management and the assignment about copyright issues quite interesting. #CaltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad This class has made me more aware of the role of social media in spreading misinformation and managing crises.#CaltechQs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@C_Kjeldbjerg @Sarah_Mojarad @skepticscience I didn't think so, but it's hard to say for objects so far away I guess.

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad @skepticscience Hmm interesting. Is this really a picture of the moon?

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad @skepticscience NASA claims the moon has had many asteroid and comet attacks, leaving behind craters and debris. #caltechqs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad Yes because editors and media often have better capability to reach a wider audience, often more than scientists. #caltechqs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad @wef Scientists can be aware of and point out such misinformation instead of being quiet about it. #caltechhqs

[Jagriti Agrawal @jagrawal28]

@Sarah_Mojarad It's easy to get caught up in your own field of science. Outreach can remind me of happenings in other fields. #caltechhqs
