Welcome to the Course
Welcome to our course on writing and disseminating grey literature! Over the course of six modules (six weeks), we will look at how you can draw from your research and practice work to craft public-facing pieces such as op-eds, data stories, photo narratives and infographics. We will also explore how to pitch to media outlets and use social media to disseminate your work. This introductory module serves as an orientation to what you can expect from this course and how you can best approach it. Take a few moments to meet the course instructors, your peers and introduce yourself.

The Basics: Overview of Grey Literature and Public Pieces
This first module will give you an overview of what constitutes grey literature and introduce the different types of public pieces you could produce from your research. We will then take you through how you could go about structuring and outlining your arguments before you craft a public piece, and what you need to keep in mind when you pitch your work to a publication.

Express Yourself: Crafting an Opinion Piece (Op-ed)
This module will focus on writing opinion pieces or op-eds - one type of public writing we had introduced in Week 1. We will first explain what an op-ed is and how it is a useful way for researchers to communicate their work to a larger audience. We will then, in detail, cover how you can structure an op-ed and pitch it successfully, and how it varies from a piece of grey literature you may be more used to writing.
