National History Dai in Kentucky Judge Region 1

Save to Favorites

Recruiting Organization: Kentucky Historical Society

What is NHDKy?

NHDKy is a project based learning program where students compete in various categories. Competitions take place regionally across Kentucky, in a statewide competition, and nationally for state level winners. This process allows students to explore the doing of history rather than simply reciting historical facts.

Judging Basics

Assist students of all ages by providing critical feedback on their projects. Assessments are made based on category, age range, group size, and historical accuracy. We will give the judges training and a rulebook for guidance on scoring the work and making valuable remarks. Judges will work as a team to rank projects for the next round of competition. Teachers and pre-service educators may earn up to three hours of professional development credit by participating as a judge. For judging you will receive exclusive judge gifts and in-person judges will be fed.
