Evaluation of ENJOI steps
and analysis of the science-media relationship
«It is only through evaluation that value exists.»Friedrich Nietzsche
Assessing the ENJOI project
We evaluate each step of our work. The overall goal is to design and implement a methodology for continuously evaluating and analysing the impacts of the ENJOI project.
This work started by evaluating the Engagement Workshops in Italy, Belgium, Spain and Portugal, and continued through every crucial phase of the project.
Involving all partners, the evaluation process is led by the University of Twente. A mixed-methodology with both qualitative and quantitative approaches was applied.
Investigating the science-media relationship
While evaluating the ENJOI progresses, we also collect complementary knowledge about the science-media relationship.
A first literature review was conducted, focusing on the quality and effectiveness of interactions between scientists and media to identify challenges and changes in the science-media relationship. This analysis addresses how collaborations between scientists and media producers can improve accuracy in science communication and how these interactions can be fostered and promoted.
The analysis also includes scientists’ and journalists’ perspectives on the science-media relationship.
