Giving students a fun way to explore STEM education and an opportunity to be recognized for their talents is the goal of online curriculum provider K12‘s annual STEM Contest.

To enter, create a video showing a creation you think could change the world, solve an everyday problem, or would just be fun. Your creation can be related to energy & environment, health & nutrition, aerospace & aviation, or cybersecurity & technology.
