STEEM STEM Contest - Gathering Interest
@anikys3reasure gave me a great suggestion for a new contest, a writing contest in a STEM area (Science, Technology, Engineering Mathematics). Before hosting a writing contest and having candidates spend the time and effort to come up with content, I wanted to take a quick poll to see if there was enough interest.
If you would be interested in this idea can you help me out by commenting below with:
- General topic you would be interested in writing about
- What prize amount would get you interested in taking the time to take part in this contest
- Any comments/suggestions you may have for this contest
Thanks everyone for your input. I'm definitely going to consider this as we have a few interested people. Let's see in the next couple of days if we get some additional interested participants and we can craft the rules and I can draft up the contest.
6/5 Updates
Once again, thank you everyone for your feedback. It's much easier to answer your questions/concerns in 1 comment rather than commenting on everyone's post individually.
Updates:
The contest would be in a science, technology, engineering, or math subject. Things like Health fall under Science so it would qualify. The topic within these areas will be completely open meaning you can choose anything you'd like as long as it falls within one of these main categories.
You would not be required to post something technical. For example (please don't use this example), if you wanted to post on automation in the workplace and its effects on unemployment, you would not need to post on how to create/displace jobs with automation. You could just post on the pros/cons of automation
I'm still working through prizes and judging criteria. It may be hard to do this weekly unless we can get it to be self-sustaining where the upvotes we receive fund the prize pool.
6/7 Update
Contest is Live! Enter here!
I like math problem solving because math is key subject for all regular activities so I like it more and 5-10 Steem prizes to join in a contest I like.
This post has received a 2.34 % upvote from @drotto thanks to: @danvillani.
You can base your contest on multiple topics , like healthcare tips , sport , motivation etc , as long as it promotes good content , i will say 10 steem will entice me to join in the contest.

Thanks for the reply @tsnaks. For this contest, I'm looking for a topic in either Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics.
Evolution of man, 100 steem
Thanks for the mention @danvillani , Steemstem is very okay but you can also add health post to it in order not to favor the scientist and technologist that would partcipate.............It should be in form of a post with the title ......
