What is STIC?
STIC stands for Student Technology Integration Challenge. VSTE started this competition in 2011 to encourage teachers and students to share the great products they are creating using technology to support the standards of learning.

Projects/Products created in teams are limited to 5 students per team. Sponsoring Teachers may submit only 2 products per age category.
What STIC projects/products can be submitted?

Who are the judges?
All judges are VSTE members and include several VSTE board members, teachers and administrators from across Virginia.
What is the criteria for STIC products?
A rubric has been created for participants to download and use as a reference to ensure their product matches the judging criteria.
