Expectations of NCTSA Judges

The NCTSA competitive events are rewarding experiences. The NCTSA Regional Conferences, students, and teachers will rely on you as a critical part of the educational process. Here is what you can expect at the event, as well as what the program expects of you as a judge.
 
As a judge, you will:

    Sign up in advance on the website using this form.
    Watch the judge's orientation video prior to the event.
    Review the competitive event guidelines and rubric.
    Review projects and videos /or interview students (if applicable).
    Score the submissions based on the rubric criteria.
    Provide feedback about each submission you review.
 
Judging on-site at the conference

You will be notified via email on February 3rd which event you will be judging. At this time, you will receive the competition rules and the judge's orientation video. On the day of the event, arrive 30 minutes early and report to the conference headquarters to check-in.  Allow four hours to assess the entries.  If possible, bring a personal laptop for judging.

    Let us know as soon as possible if your schedule changes and you are unable to judge.

    Remember the age of your audience. Some students are as young as 6th grade and may be nervous to discuss their work.  Ask questions which prompt students to provide information and be patient if they are shy or anxious.

    Pay careful attention so you can evaluate well. Students have worked for months on their projects and are looking forward this opportunity to share their work.

    Judges should dress professionally (business casual is encouraged) and avoid distractions such as personal phone calls, texts, etc. during the event.  Judges may not bring minor children that they need to supervise to the event.

    Let the NCTSA staff know right away if there are problems. We are here to help!

 
We appreciate your time and will do our best to make this experience rewarding for everyone involved!
