Cross-disciplinary Integration: Together Shaping a Global Narrative of Science
This competition is based on the spirit of scientific inquiry. To nurture science communicators and interpreters capable of sharing their scientific exploration process, we encourage participants to question everyday occurrences and phenomena, formulate hypotheses, collect and analyze data, test hypotheses, repeat experiments and discuss findings, reach conclusions, and apply their knowledge to new situations. They shell present their findings through written reports and videos so that their peers can understand the scientific exploration process. By fostering a passion for science among students, teachers, and the general public, this competition aims to increase the accessibility and enjoyment of science.
