It’s been a great event so far!
Scientists have been working hard to answer over 2,700 questions and have taken part in over 80 live chats collectively. But as only one scientist can win in each zone it’s time to announce the first to be evicted.
The first scientists to go are:
- Clare in Electromagnetic
- David in Energy
- Viv in Gallium
- Cathal in Germanium
- James in Quantum
- Indi in Selenium
- Karen in Space
- Steve in Sports
We’d like to say thank you to all the scientists for all the time and effort you’ve put into answering student questions and taking part in live chats. We hope you’ve enjoyed taking part.
Students are getting a lot out of the event. In live chats students have said:
“thank you guys amazing chatting with you”
and “i REALLY ENJOYED THIS WAS VERY INTERESTING!!!”
There’ll be more evictions every day and on Friday we’ll announce the Zone winners, who win a £500 prize to spend on science engagement!
All three classes loved the online chat events and pupils have been voting keenly to help their favourite scientists to win. Initially, the scientists who hadn’t put up profiles lost alot of points and never recovered the ground in our classes. Pupils were also not very understanding if scientists didn’t make the online chat event, even though they may have participated in other online chats.It has been a very exciting couple of weeks and we wish to thank all the scientists for their patience, enthusiasm and hard work.
