<div>Dear Post Docs,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The School of Engineering would like to ask for your
help and mentoring in an outreach project for K-12
students. We are sponsoring undergraduate and graduate
students to make 5-8 minute educational videos to engage
K-12 students in science, technology, engineering and math
concepts. It is incredibly important that all of the
technical content in the videos be correct. This is where
we would love your help. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are looking for post docs from across the Institute
to volunteer to have mentoring sessions with video-makers
in 2 hour blocks throughout the month of January
(1/2-1/27). We would love for undergraduates and
graduates to come to you to review, correct and validate
the technical content of their videos before they film.
We are looking for your expertise in physics, biology,
chemistry, earth sciences, and all the engineering fields.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After the videos have been submitted, we'll need to
review the content. So we'd also appreciate your
assistance reviewing the videos and ensuring the quality
and accuracy of their content during the week of January
30th.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you are interested in volunteering, please give us
some information using this <a
href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dE83ZXd4YkpFSDlTQXRGb05XY3FYREE6MQ"
target="_blank">link</a>. For more information about
the project and to view example videos, please see: <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are so excited about this project and incredibly
appreciative of your engagement. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Sincerely,</div>
<div>Becky</div>
