We recently asked our Scapegoat-reading friends where they get their science news from. From the 33 respondents of the Scapegoat Semester 2, 2016 survey show a huger variety of science news resources including:
Cosmos (not Cosmo!)
Documentaries – Prof Brian Cox; David Attenborough
Facebook groups
Google news
Hudson Institute of Medical Research
Internet forums: like reddit
Normal TV
Peer review articles
The Naked Scientists (risky Google search of the day! But don’t worry, it’s legit)
The Scapegoat (that’s us!)
Youtube channels: Smarter Every Day; Kurzgesagt; SciShow; CrashCourse
What are some of your favourites?
Don’t forget to check out the magazines that we get regularly in the SSLL: for example New Scientist (weekly); National Geographic (monthly); Cosmos (monthly). Take a browse through them at the staff desk in the SSLL! (Older editions from this year are in the bookshelf.)
