Introducing: Curiosity Science Contest (Rewards For Good Responses)

in #steemstem7 years ago

It has been such an exciting and fruitful journey for me ever since I joined steemit just  2 months back. As a science enthusiast, I wanted to write about various topics that left me both awestruck and curious, with the intention to get you to feel the same way! I hope I was somewhat able to live up to the expectations of my followers. But now, I think it’s high time to make things more interactive and fun by organizing a contest.  

This Contest is being organized with the help of @steemstem  

Contest Introduction 

Since I promote science on steemit, this contest will be science related. However I don’t want you to worry, it’s going to be fun and simple. In each announcement post I will provide you with three Pictures as clues. All those Pictures will be related to one another. All you have to do is write a post showing what you think that relationship between all those pictures is!

 For Example: If the first picture is of ant, second is of sugar and third is of citrus. The article response should cover all these clues and could be: “Why do ants love sugar but avoid citrus?”   

Contest Rules 

There are few Rules you must follow. 

1. The title of your post should start with “Curiosity Science Contest Response #1”. 

2. You need to add “steemstem” tag and also add “curiositycontest” tag. It will be easier for me and steemstem to find you post.

 3. Your response should be within 7 days of article. 

4. Follow me and steemstem for more future updates. 

5.  Resteem the announcement Post so that it can reach more people.  

Contest Rewards 

Three winners will be announced and the rewards will be as follows 

First Place

  Steemstem  

 Steemstem is a project started by a group of scientists. The goal of this project is to promote good science, technology, engineering, mathematics and health postings on steemit. You can use the #steemstem tag in your articles, if you are writing about science. The team puts in many hours of effort to curate and help the best STEM content posted to the site every day get some bigger rewards!  You can also find the chat channel on steemit.chat: https://steemit.chat/channel/steemSTEM
