Want to Be a Virtual Judge for a National STEM Competition?
The fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) are imperative to the future success of our students and our country. It is this thought that lead to the creation of the eCYBERMISSION competition (now in its 15th year), which is sponsored by the US Army and administered by NSTA. This free, National STEM Competition allows students in grades 6-9 to use real-world STEM application skills to research, hypothesize, experiment, and draw conclusions while meeting common core standards!
Because there are so many teams across the country submitting projects, we need help from volunteers like you who are passionate about STEM and volunteering their time in the education community.
As a virtual judge , you'll spend your time (self-paced) between March 8 and March 24 of this year to review, score, and provide comments on team submissions. We ask volunteers to score 10-15 submissions, which on average, takes 30 minutes per submission. eCYBERMISSION provides a clear judging rubric for all submissions as well as support from the eCYBERMISSION Volunteer Team.
