 thus, curation is essential
 non-linear
interactive,[object Object]
Non-Linear   An example of non-linear in print, which has implied structure, but could be read in any order. Online, readers will pop over to other sites to check facts, look up words, etc. whether you like it or not. Diagram from September 27, 2004 issue of Time. By Joe Lertola and Ed Gabel.  http://www.joelertola.com/grfx/grfx_new/chrt_hurricane.html
Interactive   You can do interactive content in print, but it works much better online. And again, whether you build it in or not, readers will interact with your work by commenting on it elsewhere, looking for more information elsewhere, etc. Build it in yourself and they’ll do this with you, rather than in spite of you.

Online Science Writing New Media     There are lots of peopleworking           on finding newmedia tools                that willaddress essential                   issues faced in                     mainstream online                      journalism.                       But there are                     Issues/characteristics                  that are far more               important to science          journalism than traditional   journalism and thus may be neglected by those people. That’s where we should be focusing our attention.  Journalism Science Writing

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Relevant to New Media + Journalism:-multimedia – most of this can go on your television or radio-no limits on size/length, but greater need for curation-non-linear-interactive
  2. There is implied structure, but you could read most of this information in any order. That’s non-linear. You can put a linear story on the web, but your reader will not necessarily read it that way.This diagram appeared in the September 27, 2004 issue of Time magazine. This graphic was a collaboration between JoeLertola and Ed Gabel. In this diagram Gabel created the illustration of the airplane as well as designing the layout of the graphic. Lertola created the illustration of the hurricane.http://www.joelertola.com/grfx/grfx_new/chrt_hurricane.html
  3. You can do interactive in print – the choose your own adventure books were interactive.Now, though, we can do this much more effectively with web technology, which is inherently interactive.
  4. Characteristics, not etymology.-the darker centers are the most central characteristics – and they do not entirely overlap. So the most essential characteristics of science journalism may be only somewhat important aspects of journalism.-the crescent-shaped area is still science journalism. It simply represents characteristics of science journalism not shared by general journalism
  5. Putting it all together…We have “Science New Media” (or whatever you prefer to call it!)But let’s shrink that down even more to make it manageable. So, what is essential to science writing – an important issue or challenge – that can be enabled by new media?
