We know that facilitators and volunteers play a huge part in ensuring the success of Next Engineers. With you and your teams in mind, we've put together a newsletter with tips that will help everyone engage with students and stay up to date on the latest resources available to them.
New editions of the newsletter will be available quarterly, and we hope that they will be an opportunity for you to engage with volunteers throughout the year.
Watch Edutopia's video to learn how you can invite student participation. Using a thumbs-up response instead of raising hands can provide you with a quick assessment strategy that encourages more students to join in. Learn more.

Read more about the findings and what it means for programs such as Next Engineers.
