Enhancing Awareness in the Design of Dissemination and Teaching Activities: Using Context for Integrating Knowledge Sharing and Technology

In education and science communication, technological innovation often progresses without adequate consideration of context and intended outcomes. This work proposes a contextdriven, interdisciplinary approach for designing knowledge dissemination activities that purposefully employ digital technologies. The Context Dimension Tree (CDT), a conceptual model from data management, has been adopted by Res4Net, a national network of Italian laboratories and research groups, as a support tool for planning communication and dissemination strategies. Two case studies on dyslexia awareness and assessment illustrate how CDT enables scenario mapping, stakeholder identification, and goal clarification. The approach enhances both educational initiatives and broader efforts in public science communication.
