In an effort to achieve the goal of transdisciplinary integration, the authors used the strategy of identifying a charismatic species, since doing so serves to motivate people towards biodiversity conservation, to communicate ecological concepts, and to integrate both the ecological and social dimensions of sustainability.</p>Senda Darwin Biological Station: Long-term ecological research at the

broader societal impacts criteria as part of the review process at the European Commission. There is both a historical account and some thinking about how 'impact' ought to be incorporated into Horizon 2020 (the funding scheme formerly known as FP8). Since the US NSF is also currently rethinking the details of its merit review process, and since there is an interesting comparison between NSF's and the EC's approaches to impact, the authors have also included a focus on NSF's Broader Impacts Criterion. The workshop was both a research opportunity (under SciSIP grant #0830387) and an effort to use that research to help inform policy for science (in terms of informing peer review models).</p>Accountable Science: The COMPETES Act Needs to Demonstrate an Accountability Attitude2012-06-08T10:10:35-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc86163/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc86163/"><img alt="Accountable Science: The COMPETES Act Needs to Demonstrate an Accountability Attitude" title="Accountable Science: The COMPETES Act Needs to Demonstrate an Accountability Attitude" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc86163/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>Article on the U.S. National Science Foundation's (NSF) Broader Impacts Merit Review Criterion in relation to the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010.</p>The Use Of Societal Impacts Considerations In Grant Proposal Peer Review: A Comparison Of Five Models2012-05-18T10:45:38-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc84349/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc84349/"><img alt="The Use Of Societal Impacts Considerations In Grant Proposal Peer Review: A Comparison Of Five Models" title="The Use Of Societal Impacts Considerations In Grant Proposal Peer Review: A Comparison Of Five Models" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc84349/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This article discusses the use of societal impacts considerations in grant proposal peer review in scientific and technical research.</p>Dear Facebook2012-04-23T10:02:31-05:00https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc83329/<p><a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc83329/"><img alt="Dear Facebook" title="Dear Facebook" src="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc83329/thumbnail/"/></a></p><p>This book chapter is written in the form of a break-up letter from the author to the social networking website, Facebook.

As core features of humanity, communication and media clearly predate academic disciplines. They are in this sense non-disciplinary. Yet, they have for centuries been the subject of inquiry by those concerned to understand and improve human correspondence. This chapter surveys the historical development and present form of multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary studies of media and communication.</p>
