  4. Innovative Idea Innovative Ideas – The idea category is purely for ideas without application/building or creating any actual model or working item. Non-working models, picture, diagrams, written or other means of explanations (such as video) of idea are sufficient for this category. “Ideas” can focus on any one of the following example areas and should include a students interest or talent: • New Applications/Games Idea • New Non-gaming Software Idea • New Improvements for current technology related items Idea • New Hardware Idea • New Technology to Aid People in Need (locally, nationally or globally) Idea • New Web design/ Website Idea • Other Computer Based Idea (To Be Approved) Example from the 2013 TAS Fair - App for smartphones or tablets that adjusts your device to your eyeglass prescription after testing you.

  5. Innovative Use Innovative Use – The “Use” category is for the demonstration of current technology to enhance knowledge or demonstrate creativity. These projects are created by students using current technology, include the following example areas, and should include a students’ interest or talent: • Photo/Music/Film/Video using editing software (no longer than 7 min.) • Non-Gaming Software Application to Aid People in Need (locally, nationally or globally) or Advance Knowledge • Website Design • Other Use (To be Approved) Example from the 2013 TAS Fair - Animated Movie with Website, Song created to raise funds for flood victims

  6. Innovative Creation Innovative Creations – In the “Creation” category students focus on inventing a new technology. Each entry must be accompanied by an actual working technology related item or a “near working” model. These are creation by students themselves that could be turned into technology based products. “Inventions” can focus on any one of the following example areas and should include a students interest or talent: • New Applications/Games • New Non-gaming Software • New Hardware • New Technology to Aid People in Need (locally, nationally or globally) • New Web Sites • Other (To be Approved) Example from the 2013 TAS Fair - Homework Reminder Website that contacts student and informs teacher if student has requested help
