EXPLORAVISION AWARDS 2009 |
Tomorrow's innovations come from today's young minds.
Your students will invent our future. They'll discover
new, improved technologies and scientific advancements that will create tomorrow's world. But how do we encourage them to
make these breakthroughs? We challenge them to open our eyes and minds.
You can get your students to start opening
their minds by having them compete in the ExploraVision Awards competition. Sponsored by Toshiba and administered by the National Science Teachers Association, the ExploraVision competition gives
students in grades K – 12 the chance to create their own visions of the future.
Student teams select and research
a current technology and then explore what it could be like 20 years from now.
Members of the four first-place teams
will each receive a $10,000 US Savings Bond and an expenses-paid trip to Washington, DC to be recognized for their achievements. Big thinking and big stakes — those are
great reasons for your students to start imagining the future.

Thank you,
The ExploraVision Team |
