Auditioning the STEM Ambassadors

This video shows the process of auditioning 16 STEM Ambassadors hoping to take part in a series of Teachers TV films profiling their work experience. The 16 finalists were challenged to enthuse and engage the panel of judges, a group of schoolchildren, with a five-minute activity. The video introduces the project, some of the finalists and illustrates their background in STEM. Each one talks about the importance of being a STEM Ambassador for them and what they feel they have to offer students. The videos contained in this collection illustrate the work of the following STEM Ambassadors: Charlotte Bailey: Trainee Plant Analyst, Chris Styles: Applications Engineer, Faye Cashman: Spacecraft Engineer, Graham Gannon: Entrepreneur, Leo Garcia: PhD Student at the Institute of Cancer Research and Sheila Kanani: Planetary Scientist.

These videos were created in 2009.
