Subject: Annotated collection of example science communication texts


Students and researchers of English Linguistics from the Chemnitz
University of Technology and the University of Zaragoza have created a
collection of example Twitter/X posts and press releases with comments
on their language. The texts and the description of their linguistic
strategies are meant to help researchers write their own texts. Still,
different contexts, audiences, and personal writing styles will likely
require different formulations. While there is no one-size-fits-all
solution for writing effective X posts and press releases, the
collection provides some useful guidelines for science communication.

Examples of X posts and press releases with different overall
communicative purposes are offered:
•       X posts to announce and promote a new publication of a member
of a research project
•       X posts establishing networks by providing information on a
specific academic event
•       X posts announcing and describing an event
•       X posts in individual accounts announcing research undertaken
or published
•       Press release to announce and promote a new publication
•       Press release to report on an academic event and promote its
results

The collection and further information on the DAAD project "I, Expert:
Media competence for science through linguistics" can be found at:
