Evening chats – students can chat from home with their family.
We’re running two extra, after-school chats as an opportunity to involve parents and carers in what you are doing in school. It’s been really popular in previous events, with students keen to introduce their families and friends to the researchers they have been connecting with in class.
When?
Thursday 14th and 21st November, 7pm-8pm
How to get students involved
- Set the chat/s as homework.
This is the best way to get your students online. Suggest they log in with a family member, look at the researchers’ profiles together and ask a question in the chat. They just log in as normal and click the CHAT button at the top of the page. - Add information to your school newsletter. Suggested wording:
Some of our students will be chatting online with researchers in their lessons, on the I’m a Researcher website. We are encouraging students to show their parents and carers the site and introduce them to the researchers in two evening live chats, from 7pm-8pm on Thursday 14th and 21st November. Parents and carers can meet the researchers and ask them about what it’s like working in STEM.
If your child is taking part, they will have a login card to access the site. Log in with your child from 7pm and click the CHAT button.
