Talking to scientists

When sessions have been booked by a teacher an instant messenger-style room will open on this page. Yep, it’s magic. I don’t know how it works either really. Fingers crossed it will though…

On the left is the room for the students. Teachers and moderators will also be in here. On the right will appear the scientists. Just shout if you need help.

Check the time of your live-chat booking!

Remember that all live-chat bookings on the I’m a Scientist calendar are Eastern Standard Time (AEST) – that’s the time in Qld! So make sure that you have got the time of the booking right in your part of the country.

For example, if you booked a chat for 11:00 am AEST (Qld), that means that it will take place at 12:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time (NSW, Vic and Tas) and 11:30 am Central Daylight Time (SA).
