Global Criteria
● Impact: How much impact (quality and quantity) can this project have? Does it solve a big
problem or a little problem? Will it inspire or help many, or a few?
● Creativity: How creative/innovative is the approach? Is the project novel and something that
hasn't been attempted before, or is it an incremental improvement on something that already
exists?
● Validity: Is the solution scientifically valid? Will it do what it sets out to do? Can it work in the
real world?
● Relevance: Is this project responsive to the challenge for which it was submitted? Is it a
complete solution or does it have a long way to go? Is it technically feasible? How usable or user
friendly is the solution?
● Presentation: How well did the team communicate their project? Were they effective in telling
the story of the project: the challenge, the solution, and why is it important?
