The Alabama Consortium for Technology in Education (ACTE) Region One Technology competition is open to all Alabama students in grades three through twelve; whether students go
to a private or public school, learn at home, or sponsored by
another organization. Students may create projects in a
broad range of categories either individually or in a group (no groups for 2021) of no more
than two students (except for robotics) and may register a combination of up **TWO** projects. (Project count does not include the TECH FAIR TEST or TPC).
Additionally, students may compete by taking an online Information
Technology (IT) test (no tech test for 2021) and participate in the Team Programming Challenge
(TPC). (See Tab TPC-Alabama 50 for 2021). The IT test comprehensively tests student's knowledge on a
variety of general technology topics. The TPC is a timed exercise where teams of students grades seven through twelve are presented challenging programming problems to solve.
(Virtual Only...sadly we will not be on campus for 2021)
