ASM Materials Challenge

Calling all High School Students! (Teacher Opportunity at the bottom of this page.)

The ASM Materials Challenge is to build something with your hands, test it, present testing and findings via a two-page essay and video to be viewed by middle school students. (All projects are due Mar 31, 2022)

Prizes will be awarded to winners of the challenge. For more information see the PDF below.

There is no charge to enter the Materials Challenge.

• The device should be tested, using data that can be shown
• Findings should be presented in a two-page essay and in a three-minute video aimed at middle school students
• Students will need to send in their videos and essays but NOT the device
