The I’m an Engineer Christmas Lectures Zone was designed to run alongside the Royal Institution’s annual lecture series, this year titled ‘Sparks Will Fly!’ and hosted by Danielle George. The aim of this zone was to provide a way for interested viewers to find answers to questions prompted by the lectures. This was the second time we had run a Christmas Lectures Zone.

263 students from 10 different schools were active in the CHAT and ASK sections, whilst 37 members of the public logged in through social media. 18 engineers were online to answer questions. Three engineers, Andy, Steve, and Tim, contributed over 80% of lines of chat and 60% of the answers to questions.  Across most measures, engagement was up from the previous year.
