Great Women in Science and Engineering Essay Contest!
We had another amazing response to the Great Women in Science and Engineering 5th grade essay contest this year and now have over 350 essays to judge!
That means we will once again need a significant number of volunteers to be first-round judges. I'm looking for 25-30 judges that will read about 15 essays apiece. Essays will be distributed to initial judges this week and judges will be expected to make their semifinalist choices by April 3. More instructions will be provided if you volunteer, so don't worry if you haven't done this before. The initial judging step is all electronic, so it's a great way for you to participate remotely!
Because there are so many entries this year, we will have three rounds of judging similar to last year. For the second round (semifinalist judging), judges will read all the essays that advance from the first round and provide feedback that will narrow the field prior to the final round. This round will take place between April 3 and about April 10 (depending on the date of the final round meeting). The third round (finalist judging) will be a dinner sometime during the week of April 10-16 (tentative) to choose our final top three from the finalists that advance from the second round.
If you are interested in volunteering to be a judge for any of the rounds, or if you have any questions, please email swe.essay.contest@gmail.com.
