  1. THE CHALLENGE: Using materials from around the house, students should submit a video of them doing a science project, experiment, or engineering something awesome...all while staying safe at home. Each grade category (K-2, 3-5, 6-8) will be judged separately.

What the judges will be looking for:

K-5th projects may be demonstrations

Here is a simplified version of the Scientific Method and what we are going to be judging on:

  1. Ask a question or try to solve a problem
  2. Do some background research on the question or problem and possible solution
  3. Using the research, formulate a hypothesis (your best guess with the information you gathered) or possible answers to the question.
  4. Test your best guess or try to build the solution to the problem 
  5. Analyze the data and draw a conclusion. Was your guess correct? If yes, that’s awesome -- if not, that’s even more awesome because you can keep going. Do you know why didn’t it work and want to try again with more data? Did the solution work or not work? 

 

  1. WINNER DETERMINATION:

Round 1: All entries will first be screened to ensure they meet the entry criteria. The judge’s panel will consist of qualified educators and science professionals that will then score qualifying Entry Videos. Entry Videos will be scored using the following judging criteria:

  • (i) Creativity (ingenuity and innovative thinking) (30%);
  • (ii) Scientific knowledge (30%);
  • (iii) Persuasiveness and effective communication (20%); and
  • (iv) Overall presentation (20%).

The judges will rank all eligible Entry Videos received. The three students (one student from each grade category: K-2, 3-5, 6-8) with the highest scores will be deemed the Grand Prize winners. Three students (one student from each grade category: K-2, 3-5, 6-8) with the second-highest overall scores from judging will be deemed the Runner Up Prize winners. One student will be randomly selected as the Science Explorer winner. All winners will be notified by phone and/or email in June 2020. Winners will be required to complete and return any required documents within 7 days of issuance of these documents to claim the prize. If Winner does not claim their prize or does not return the documents within 7 days, a new winner will be chosen. In the event of any ties, the “Overall presentation” score will be used as a first tiebreaker. In the event any tie remains after applying this first tiebreaker, the “Creativity” score will be used as a secondary tiebreaker.

Sponsor reserves the right to award additional prizes or titles in its sole discretion.

Round 2 (Public Voting Period): In the Public Voting Period, members of the public worldwide (the “Voters”) are invited to visit MOVA Globes’ YouTube channel to vote on the finalists’ videos. Finalists for Fan Favorite will be chosen by Sponsors and Judges. To cast their vote, Voters will be asked to push “Like” on the best finalist video. The finalist whose video receives the highest number of votes (as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion) within the 7-day Public Voting Period will be declared the Contest’s (potential) Fan Favorite Award Winner. In the event of a tie in the Public Voting Period, the Sponsor will break the tie using the judging criteria provided to the finalists prior to the Final Event, in its sole discretion. Only votes submitted via YouTube in accordance with these Official Rules during the Public Voting Period will be considered. All determinations regarding the eligibility of votes will be made by Sponsor in its sole discretion, and such determinations may be made at any time. Votes generated by script, macro or other automated means or any other means intended to impact the integrity of the voting process as determined by Sponsor may be void. Votes obtained by any fraudulent or inappropriate means, including, without limitation, offering prizes or other inducements to members of the public, payment for votes or offering to trade votes, as determined by Sponsor, in its sole discretion, may result in those votes being void and the associated finalist being disqualified. Sponsor will provide guidelines and recommendations for encouraging public voting to finalists prior to the start of the Public Voting Period.

The decisions of Sponsor and Judges are final and binding in all matters.

  1. VIDEO SUBMISSION: To enter, a student must submit one, and only one, entry video in accordance with the Challenge detailed above in Section 5 (the "Entry Video").

  1. ADDITIONAL ENTRY REQUIREMENTS: Do not include any branded products, trademarks, or logos in the Entry Video, other than trademarks or logos owned by Sponsor or Promotional Partner. Entries which contain a trademark or logo or promote any brand or product other than those belonging to Sponsor or Promotional Partner may be disqualified at the Sponsor’s sole discretion; however, the Sponsor may choose not to disqualify an Entry Video which includes a trademark or logo if the Sponsor determines in its sole discretion that the inclusion of such trademark or logo is incidental.

Students and their parent(s)/legal guardian(s) must be certain that any music or sound effect conforms to all applicable requirements. Sponsor's determination as to whether any Entry Video potentially violates the rights of any third party is final.
