Engineering Design Journal
In The Tech Challenge, how the teams develop their solution is as important as the solution itself. The judges will ask the team members about the process used to design and build the device.
Judging Process
The Tech Challenge judges will evaluate your team's project as a whole, including your device's performance, your engineering design process and journal, and your style and presentation. The judges also award points for teamwork, perseverance, and other categories.
