Abstract

Pedagogy in science communication can be wide ranging, spanning formal education, informal education, everyday science learning, and professional development contexts. So how might we apply the concept of queer pedagogy to these multiple processes and settings? To paraphrase Luhmann (1998), what would a queer pedagogy of science communication (QSCP) look like? What would be its ambitions, and where would it take place? Is QSCP something just for queer science communicators and students? Or would the practice also include queering the science communication curriculum? Or, is it about queer learning, teaching and practices within the broad umbrella of science communication? In this chapter we approach all these questions and explore what queer theory might bring to science communication and the possiblities of teaching it queerly.
