Please briefly describe how your student activity will relate to the overall objectives and goals of the Biomaterials Education Challenge.
Each educational module should demonstrate fundamental biomaterials concepts, with scientific principles that are understandable to a middle school audience and designed for a 45 minute class period.

The goals of this competition are to:

·         improve widespread understanding of biomaterials-related science and careers in the middle school population;

·         to encourage SFB student chapters to participate in K-8 outreach efforts;

·         to reward the communication skills and creativity of the next generation of biomaterials researchers and educators.

To participate in the Biomaterials Education Challenge, submit an abstract that addresses the following items:

·         Statement of purpose including target age group and group size

·         Description of activity methods including materials and budget

·         Assessment method and results

Finalists will be selected based on the submitted abstracts to present a poster to the panel of judges for this competition. Prizes will be awarded to the top teams.

Awardees will be required to submit module write-ups for their activities that will be hosted on the SFB website.
