#CrimComm
CrimComm is a global network of criminologists who believe in the importance of making research fully accessible to policy makers, practitioners, students, the public and to each other. To that end, we create, promote and share tools for researchers to help them enhance communication of social science research. Our guiding motto?
"If you have knowledge, let others light their candle at it"
- Margaret Fuller
Videos are a great medium that can be used to share a lot of information, or they can be broken up into smaller clips.
Website such as ResearchGate and Google Scholar are great platforms to great a repository of your own work (and its impact).
Want to get your research read by practitioners? Write directly to them in practitioner-oriented newsletters, magazines, or blogs.
LinkedIn provides a great professional platform to create a network and to connect with other academics, policy makers, and others.
Instagram is not just for selfies! The platform is also a great way to visually share your work.
Blogging is a great way to share your work or thoughts with much fewer limitations that are found on other platforms (e.g., character limits, etc.).
Pinterest is a visual platform that provides an opportunity to share work through images, GIFs, and memes.
With over 1 billion active users, Facebook stands out as a lucrative medium through which to share your work.
While many criminologists publish to 'succeed' in academia, their audience also often includes individuals from beyond the academy, such as practitioners or members of the general public. In this podcast I discuss finding your audience.
Twitter, ResearchGate, Google Scholar, and LinkedIn are just some of the platforms where you can share your work, but which platform(s) should you chose for YOUR work? In this podcast I discuss finding your niche.
