Eligible entrants: Sixth through eighth-grade students, with teacher direction as appropriate (see below), enrolled in San Diego County schools. Topics for videos may be based on Math or Science California State Standards. Link all entries to a specific California State Content Standard.

Identify an area of need according to recent test scores. Start with the California State Standard that addresses the area of need. Build your video on the standard, using the visual medium to simplify and teach the difficult concepts. Don't try to cover too much in one video. It's much more effective to focus on one concept and demonstrate it as clearly as possible.
