Oral Component

December 14, 2013 By Pennsylvania Envirothon

All teams are expected to participate in the Oral Component; it is a mandatory part of the Pennsylvania State Envirothon and is a part of the scoring to determine the overall winner.

The Oral Component (OC) offers Envirothon teams a chance to address real-life environmental problems as presented through a written scenario. The OC tests a team’s ability to consider an environmental issue, discuss its likely ramifications and effects, develop possible solutions, and present their findings to a panel of judges and then answer the judges’ questions during a 20-minute session.
