Mentoring Young Scientists

Audience
- Select High school students in the Future Science Leaders Program at Science World
Plan
<html><center><iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NYzCGL2D2WY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></center></html>
- Give a fifteen minute presentation about iGEM, synthetic biology, our project and what future opportunities they could have with iGEM
- Lead the activity where the students are given a troublesome environmental situation in which synthetic biology could be used to help! Possible parts are given and the students must create a suitable plasmid of reasonable size to solve the problem. More details about the activity here
- An invitation to join our 2012 iGEM project or to form their own high school iGEM team
- We anticipate that relationships will be formed and fostered so that we can be a mentor to these future science leaders
Experience
British Columbia iGEM 2011
- The presentation went very well. The students were engaged and responsive. They really enjoyed the videos and they asked thoughtful questions afterward.
- The plasmid activity was a good opportunity to problem solve with the kids and allowed for more dialogue about the topic of synthetic biology
- Students were receptive to future involvement with iGEM and our information was given so that there can be a continual relationship. Individual students also sought out to be mentored by a team member.
- It was a very positive experience and we hope to not only be involved next year but look forward to growth in the relationships already forming.
- We are thankful to Dr. Catherine Anderson, Program Manager of Future Science Leaders for the opportunity to take part in this innovative program.
