<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color:
#000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear MIT Postdocs,<br>
<div>
<div style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #000000;
font-size: 16px">
<div>
<br>
I have received the following message from Elizabeth Choe,
Program Coordinator, MIT+K12 Videos, in the Office of
Digital Learning:<br>
**</div>
<div>The MIT+K12 Videos Program is producing a webseries this
spring, written and hosted by MIT students who are excited
about sharing their passion for
science/technology/engineering/math with K12 students (and
learners of all ages) all around the world.</div>
<div><br>
We are currently looking for postdocs who would be
interested in reviewing scripts on the following topics for
content accuracy:
<blockquote type="cite">
<div style="direction:ltr; font-family:Tahoma;
color:#000000; font-size:10pt">
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- Bio: adaptive immunology (pathogens and the
basics of the immune system)</div>
<div>- Physics: photonic crystals and the concept of
iridescence </div>
<div>- Physics/EAPS: transiting exoplanets and
satellites</div>
<div>- Mat. Sci: crystals in food, microscopy</div>
<div>- Math: The basics concepts behind dimensions</div>
<div>- Neuroscience/Physics: How our eyes see in 3D</div>
<div>- Mat. Sci.: Making carbon nanotubes</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As far as the commitment goes, postdocs will be
reviewing a couple iterations of the student's script
for content accuracy (and if they want to give
feedback on clarity or style, they can do that as
well, but it's not required) anytime
<b>between now and January 20th</b> (which is very
soon, and I am sorry about that!). Some other folks on
our staff will work with the students on engagement
and entertainment factors in the script. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Interested postdocs should directly contact me if
they would like to participate or have any questions.
Because of our new model, we need far fewer postdocs
to help us out.<br>
