-technical audiences are too significant to ignore. In this time of ongoing discord betweenscientists, policymakers, and the public, the ways in which scientists communicate with thoseoutside of their profession is critical to improving scientific literacy [14], [15]. As Chan [16]argues, “In order for the lay public to shape an informed opinion of scientific discoveries andcontroversial developments, it is critical that scientists can communicate about research and theimplications of that research to promote awareness, clarity, as well as to respond to publicconcerns. These are the abilities that are lacking amongst many new science graduates.”Currently, there is a dearth of research regarding undergraduate students’ creative explanationsin their
