This book aims to be a reference for researchers studying the
promotion of scientific literacy in China, as well as a guide for
those interested in promoting scientific awareness. It covers
advances in science and technology, communication and
popularization practice, and research (STCP) both in China and
abroad. Theoretical issues are discussed, and important problems in
promoting scientific and technological awareness are identified
(e.g.: basic principles, structures, channels of communication and
current needs) This bookprovides a summary of the advances in STCP
in China in recent years (especially after the issuing of the
"National Scientific Literacy Outline") including STCP resource and
capacity building, science popularization policies, practitioner
development, infrastructure construction, and the development of
the science popularization industry as a whole. At the same time,
this book also reviews thedesign, organization, monitoring and
evaluation of science and technology communication and
popularization programs. It also highlights current STCP trends and
developments in China and calls for a greater emphasis to be placed
on research into promoting scientific literacy. It is hoped that
this book will be useful to readers both in China and abroad by
familiarizing them with the history and theory of STCP as well as
its development over time. The 1st chapter briefly reviews the
history of STCP. The 2nd through 5th chapters discuss the
conceptual framework, basic structure, methods of communication,
and current STCP needs. The 6th chapter introduces the principle
content of programs aimed at improving Chinese citizens' scientific
literacy, while the 7th and 8th chapters analyze the resources,
capacities and conditions that have been developed for STCP in
China. The 9th chapter investigates the organization, monitoring
and evaluation of science popularization practices, and the final
chapter summarizes important STCP topics and trends in contemporary
China.
