STEM Ambassador Profile Videos

In these videos, STEM Ambassadors describe why they took on the role and the benefits both for the students they visit and for themselves. The first video, Auditioning the STEM Ambassadors, was made by students who tested 16 STEM Ambassador finalists of a competition to choose a number who would feature in a series of Teacher's TV films. The other six films feature some of these finalists, 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. Each video lasts around 14 minutes.

These videos were created in 2009.

STEM Ambassadors are volunteers of all ages working in a range of STEM-related roles from apprentice engineers to geologists and nuclear physicists to zoologists. Not only do they have a lot of fun, but they get an opportunity to contribute to their local community and boost their skills and confidence.
