Join us to learn about a fantastic opportunity to bring science and STEM to life in your classrooms with eCyberMission. eCyberMission is a web-based Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics competition for 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th grade teams. Students must be enrolled in either 6th, 7th, 8th or 9th grade at a U.S.-based public or private school, a Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) school abroad or a U.S.-based home school.Your team will propose a solution to a real problem in your community and compete for State, Regional and National Awards. Students learn to work together as a team to create their mission project through a valuable guided research process. The site provides excellent resources for carrying out research-based projects that take you from identifying the local/global problem, to coming up with a solution to address it. This process could be used even if you aren't eligible to participate in the competition and you may even want to get involved as a Cyber Judge. Our special guest, Matt Hartman, will provide an overview of the entire process and information about participating.
