Video Game Design Participants develop, build, and launch an E-rated, online game that focuses on the subject of their choice. The game should be interesting, exciting, visually appealing, and intellectually challenging. The game and all required documentation must be submitted—and will be evaluated—online, pre-conference. Semifinalist teams (list posted at the conference) participate in an onsite interview to demonstrate the knowledge and expertise they gained during the development of the game. Theme is: Role Playing Game that is TSA focused.
STEM Animation Participants use computer graphics tools and design processes (i.e., animation) to communicate, inform, analyze and/or illustrate a topic, idea, subject, or concept that focuses on one (1) or more of the following areas: science, technology, engineering, or mathematics; sound may accompany graphic images. Participants will find the current year's theme posted on Themes and Problems. A documentation portfolio and a USB flash drive with the STEM animation comprise the entry. Semifinalists make a presentation. Create a STEM animation that demonstrates what AI is and could be.
Flight Participants study the principles of flight and design in order to fabricate a glider that stays in flight for the greatest elapsed time. The glider must be designed to be launched from a catapult that is provided onsite. The design process is documented in a portfolio that is submitted for evaluation.
Digital Photography Participants produce a digital album consisting of color or black and white digital photographs that represent or relate to a chosen theme posted on Themes and Problems and place the album on a storage device (USB flash drive) for submission. Semifinalists produce a series of digital photographs taken at the conference site that are edited appropriately for the onsite task. Details about the correct year's theme can be found on Themes and Problems. Theme: "Landscape of Seasons"
Junior Solar Sprint Participants apply STEM concepts, creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills as they design, construct, and race a solar-powered model car.
Off the Grid Throughout the world, people are working to become more self-sustaining when it comes to landscaping and architectural design. Sometimes the purpose is to live off the grid, and other times it is to create a smaller carbon footprint. There are many options throughout the world, but sometimes a location limits or enables those options. In this event, participants conduct research on a sustainable architectural design for a home in a country of the team's choosing (other than their home country).
Participants will create a display and a model. The model can be of the home the team designed or of a specific aspect of their design. Semifinalist teams will give a presentation and are interviewed about their design. The design brief for this competition will be posted on Themes and Problems. Design a home for a family of four (4) and two (2) architecturally integrated food sources.
STEM Animation Participants use computer graphics tools and design processes (i.e., animation) to communicate, inform, analyze and/or illustrate a topic, idea, subject, or concept that focuses on one (1) or more of the following areas: science, technology, engineering, or mathematics; sound may accompany graphic images.
