Procedures
All entries, from conception to final product, must be written or developed by the students entering the project. Entries must be packaged in a way that they can be easily submitted via a link on the school entry form. Both the project and the program required to run it must be included in the entry. Operational procedures must be included on the entry form and explained to your Media Specialist.
Coding entries often require specific software. If your program will not run without the software, the student must include a screen recording or screenshots showcasing what the code is intended to do. For example, students can screen record on their iPad, upload the file to OneDrive, generate a link and copy/paste the link in with their coding information to https://wcpsmediaexpo.com .
Judging Criteria
Content Achieves Purpose
Original/Unique: The concept and the developer's approach to creating a computer program clearly demonstrate the use of code in interesting and unique ways. This may involve using widely available content or code in innovative manners that are not typically explored. The project could also combine content and code in a way that is different or intriguing.
Subject Matter: The project or feature is chosen thoughtfully, and its subject matter is presented effectively and innovatively using code and functionality.
Content Suitable to Audience
Code Structure: The code is well-structured, with clear organization, modularity, and the application of appropriate design patterns, making it easier to maintain and understand.
Creativity/Originality
Technical Proficiency: The code demonstrates strong technical proficiency, with correct and efficient implementation that adheres to coding standards and best practices. The project effectively meets the requirements and successfully solves the problem it was designed to address.
User Experience: The application provides a smooth and intuitive user experience, enhancing user engagement and satisfaction.
Organization/Structure
Presentation: The final application makes a strong impact, with attention to user interface design, performance, and visual elements that enhance the overall presentation.
Use of Design Techniques: The project employs effective coding principles that improve the quality and maintainability of the code. Unit tests or integration tests are implemented to ensure the reliability and robustness of the code. Judges will consider the complexity, creativity, originality, and the presence of multiple functional levels in the code.
