Just a few days ago, I graduated from California State University, Northridge, but instead of the usual cap and gown ceremony, I had dinner with my family and called my neighbors, friends, and extended family to thank them for their support over the years. A short video consisting of a slideshow presentation replaced my school’s commencement tradition that dates to 1958. Back in March, I witnessed the sudden closure of a complete campus and had to grow familiar with learning online through virtual meetings, lectures and exams. And with a new approach to pedagogy came new challenges for students and instructors, such as keeping students engaged and catering to specific student needs.

COVID-19 has affected research all over the world. With universities closing their campuses and governments issuing restrictions on social gatherings, behavioral research in the lab has ground to a halt. This situation is urgent. Ongoing studies have been disrupted and upcoming studies cannot begin until they are adapted to the new reality. At Volunteer Science, we’re helping researchers around the world navigate these changes. In this post, I’ll condense the most important recommendations we’re giving to researchers for translating their studies into an online format and recruiting virtual participants.

Few people like to hear bad news, especially from their leaders in bad times, when we all seek solace and comfort. But telling people good news is easy, even (or especially) if it isn’t true; while telling people things they need to hear that they would rather not, is much more difficult, and therefore a more important test of leadership. In Ibsen’s An Enemy of the People, the bad news is that the new public baths have been poisoned by the local tannery, just as the tourist season is starting, (this, of course, is the frame for the 1975 Spielberg movie “Jaws”). In the play, the hero, Dr Stockmann, fails to persuade his brother, the mayor, to close the baths and is then shouted down at a town meeting for trying to persuade the people that they have an unpopular but necessary duty to perform; they call him “the enemy of the people.” This is the opposite of telling people lies that keep loyal followers happy.

It’s a Wednesday morning, and I grab a seat, preparing myself for the SOPHE (Society for Public Health Education) Annual Conference’s Opening Plenary session. But something is different. I’m wearing gym shorts and my favorite public health t-shirt, which is not my usual conference attire. Instead of being in a room surrounded by health education colleagues, I’m in a room by myself, located 20 minutes from downtown Atlanta, where the SOPHE conference was scheduled. I’m staring at a computer screen, not poised to take notes but instead, waiting to see Elaine Auld welcome me to the 2020 SOPHE Annual Conference.
