Compete

The Alberta Envirothon is a high school competition where teams compete on their knowledge of environmental science and natural resources through a series of field station and written tests that put their teamwork and problem solving skills to the test, and an oral presentation where teams present their solution to a complex environmental issue.

​

How the 2024 Competition will be Scored

The competition scoring is based on both written tests and an oral scenario presentation:

TESTING STRUCTURE

On day 2 of the competition, students will work as a team to complete tests in the following subjects:

​

  1. Aquatic Ecology

  2. Forestry

  3. Soils and Land Use

  4. Wildlife

  5. Current Issue 

​​

Each test is worth an equivalent value.

​

Testing is worth 50% of the final score. 

Written Tests

Students will be given a scenario-style question prior to the event which relates to the current issue. They must work together to prepare a presentation prior to the event that answers the question given.

​

Students will present live at the competition in front of a panel of judges.


Oral presentation scores will be based upon the rubric approved by the AB Envirothon Board.


The oral presentation is worth 50% of the final score. 

Oral Scenario Presentation

2024 Scoring & Rules Handout 

Final team placements will be determined by adding the test scores and the final oral presentation score. 


The top 3 team scores are awarded cash prizes and trophies.
