Where Challenge 2010: Great Contest for Students

What on Earth is in your stuff? and WHERE on Earth does it come from? Those are the questions behind a contest for young people that challenges them to find out about the minerals making up the things they use everyday, and then present what they have learned in a way that can be shared with others.

The Canada-wide contest is open to students ages 10-14. All contest entries must be submitted in a digital format, but all forms of submissions from scanned art work to homemade videos are acceptable.

There are many prizes for students in different age categories and from the different regions across Canada.

Take a look at the WHERE Challenge Web site to learn about the contest rules and the variety of projects that can be submitted. Also take a look at some of the winners of last year's WHERE contest for inspiration and take up the challenge yourself - where on Earth does your toaster come from?

Contest Deadline: March 1 2010
