Kid Contest: USA Science & Engineering Festival
Do you know young students who want to combine their interests in science and engineering with videography? Encourage them to enter the USA Science & Engineering Festival Kavli Science Video Contest! They'll have a chance to inspire thousands of people to be more curious and care about science & engineering.
Kids create a short video that explores the question "Why is Science Cool?" Videos might explore a scientific concept, show us the wonders of nature or fascinating features in our built-environment (see engineeringsights.org), give us a glimpse into the future, show us what scientific discovery has done for us in the past or will do for us in the future, introduce us to a great engineer or scientist, tell why science is so cool, or simply show why others should care about science and/or engineering. Sponsored by The Kavli Foundation and conducted in partnership with SciVee, the contest closes on July 15, 2010. Prize money goes to the organization the student is representing (be it a school, after-school program, or other outreach program). Students win electronics prizes and either a trip to DC to the Expo or tickets for a VIP event to meet the Mythbusters. For more information click here.
