Students choose an issue or question in science, technology, engineering, math, or health and then write an engaging 500-word explanation.

For this contest, The Learning Network invites you to bring that same spirit of inquiry and discovery to finding a STEM-related question, concept or issue you’re interested in, and, in 500 words or fewer, explaining it to a general audience in a way that not only helps us understand, but also engages us and makes us see why it’s important.

Contest Dates: Jan. 18 – Feb. 15, 2023. Learn more here!
