Below is a summary description of the 2020 and 2021 high school level TSA competitive events. Detailed specifications and rules regarding each event can be found in the “TSA High School Competitive Events Guide for the 2020 and 2021 National TSA Conference.”

Forensic Science

Participants take a written test of basic forensic science to qualify as semifinalists. Semifinalist teams will examine a mock crime scene and demonstrate their knowledge of forensic science and crime scene analysis. Participants will be expected use proper techniques to collect evidence and perform a detailed written analysis of the crime scene.

Future Technology Teacher

Participants create a screencast webinar that teachers can reference to learn a new technology that can be used in a lesson. Semifinalists demonstrate mastery of the technological app in a mock lesson and presentation.

Geospatial Technology

Participants interpret geospatial data in multiple formats and formulate projections about the area of interest In response to an annual theme. Participants develop a digital portfolio containing maps, data, and pertinent documentation. Preliminary round participants also summarize their findings in a visual infographic map. Semifinalists defend their visual infographic projections in a digital presentation.

Information Technology Fundamentals+ Certification – CompTIA

TBD

Music Production

Participants produce an original musical piece that is designed to be played during the National TSA Conference opening or closing general sessions.

On Demand Video

Participants write, shoot, and edit a 60–second video onsite during the conference.

Photographic Technology

Participants demonstrate understanding of and expertise in using photographic and imaging technology processes to convey a message based on a theme. Preliminary participants submit a photographic portfolio to qualify for semifinalists. Semifinalists demonstrate expertise in photographic technology by producing two (2) portfolios within a limited, specified amount of time.

Prepared Presentation

Participants deliver an oral presentation, using a digital slide deck, on a topic provided onsite.

Promotional Design

Participants use computerized graphic communications layout and design skills in the production of a promotional resource for TSA.

Scientific Visualization (SciVis)

Participants use either 2D or 3D computer graphics tools and design processes to communicate, inform, analyze, and/or illustrate a STEM topic, idea, subject, or concept.

Software Development

Participants use knowledge of cutting-edge technologies, algorithm design, problem-solving principles, effective communication, and collaborative teamwork to design, implement, test, and document a software development project of educational or social value.

Structural Design and Engineering

Participants work as a team to build a designated structure that is posted on the TSA website. Teams apply the principles of structural design and engineering through research, design, construction, destructive testing, and assessment to determine the design efficiency of the structure.

System Control Technology

Participants work onsite to develop a computer-controlled model-solution to a problem, typically one from an industrial setting. Teams analyze the problem, build a computer-controlled mechanical model, program the model, explain the program and mechanical features of the model-solution, and write instructions for evaluators to operate the device.

Technology Bowl

Participants demonstrate their knowledge of TSA and concepts addressed in the technology content standards by completing a written, objective test. Semifinalist teams participate in question/response, head-to-head team competition.

Technology Problem Solving

Participants use their skills in problem solving to develop a finite solution to a problem provided onsite.

Transportation Modeling

Participant research, design, and produce a scale model of a vehicle that fits the annual design problem.

VEX Robotics Competition

Participants collaborate on a robotics project that explores the relationship among STEM fields, culminating in a head-to-head game to test their robot’s efficiency and productivity. Learn more.

Video Game Design

Participants develop a game that reflects the theme for the year. The game must have high artistic, educational, and social value and be interesting, exciting, visually appealing, and intellectually challenging.

Webmaster

Participants design, build, and launch a website that features the school’s career and technology/engineering program, TSA chapter, and the chapter’s ability to research and present a given topic pertaining to technology.
