Judging Criteria
A Judging Committee was organized to evaluate the submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least five judges from the judging team, consisting of people with diverse backgrounds and experiences (including teens).
Submissions were scored using the following criteria:
● Relevance to the open call theme
● Relevance to program target populations (middle and high school students, teachers, parents, guardians, and other caring adults)
● Creativity
● Inclusivity
● Feasibility of information for program use
● Overall quality
