Formato de Julgamento

Judging will be Digital Engineering Notebook Submissions / In person Team Interviews.

Engineering notebooks must be submitted digitally by providing a link to your digital notebook. Notebooks are submitted through the team's events.vex.com logins by one of the team's registered contacts- Submitting a Digital Engineering Notebook – Global Robotics & Science Foundation.This link must be submitted by 4:00 pm Mountain Time, Friday, February 26th, 2027.

A new requirement this year is to include up to three summaries in your notebook. These summaries are a Season Summary (1-page), a Code Summary (also 1-page, but this summary is only necessary if your team uses code for autonomous programs), and a Credit Summary. See Season, Code, and Credit Summaries for Judging – Global Robotics & Science Foundation for more information.

Also different this year, it is no longer necessary to submit a separate form to be eligible for the Innovate Award. If you have something innovative that you want the judges to be aware of, you should mention it in your 1-page Season Summary.

At this tournament it is NOT necessary to print out your summaries and turn them in. Your summaries just need to be in your notebook and easily found from your Table of Contents. To make it easy for the judges, we suggest your summary pages be hyperlinked from the Table of Contents with bidirectional page navigation, that is, a hyperlink from the ToC to the Summary Page, and a link on the Summary Page back to the ToC.
