Registration instructions

You participate in TuKoKe through the registration system tukoke.osallistumme.fi. Using the same system, you can also submit your work for the STEK Electricity competition (STEK Sähkökisa) and ESA’s Climate Detectives competion.

Before beginning your registration, make sure you have all the necessary information and files at hand.

On registration you will need

consent forms (completed and scanned or photographed) for each participant. For participants under 18, a guardian’s signature is needed.
name and year of birth as well as school and place of recidence of each participant
name and contact details of the supervisor (if the project has a supervisor)
project report file (pdf, jpg, or gif)
an abstract or summary describing your project’s content briefly and concisely. The length should not exceed one page. (Allowed file formats pdf, jpg, or gif.)
a short introduction of the project (max. 200 words, in Finnish). It will be entered directly onto the registration form.
other attachments (images, videos, or other material).

Name your files consistently

Select a title that best describes your project. Use this title in the names of all attachments. Examples of naming attachments: Carrot study_Report, Carrot study_Summary.

Videos

If you have made your report in the form of a video do submit a short report file as well. It should include the cover page and a mention that your report is a video. You need to provide a link to the video on the registration form. Make sure that the video can also be accessed by external reviewers.

Who is the contact person for the project?

Each project must have a contact person. The contact person is one of the authors of the project, a supervisor, or a guardian. They sign in to the registration system, after which they can register any number of projects.

If the contact person represents a group of authors or several projects, they pass on the information to all the others involved. The contact person also receives information on feedback given to the projects and on participation certificates.

The contact person should always be reachable if necessary. Please make sure you provide a phone number that will be answered also during the weekends and email address that is read daily.

Why do I need to submit the consent form for each participant?

The TuKoKe participant is asked to submit consent for storing and accessing personal data in connection with the TuKoKe arrangements. For participants under 18 years old, a guardian’s signature is needed.

Why do I need to give personal data on the participants?

You need to fill in the name and year of birth as well as school and place of recidence of each participant. This information is needed for statistical purposes and due to age restrictions on some prizes.

If the participants are over 14 years old, they can be selected to represent Finland in international events.

Which field/discipline should I submit my project to?

Select the field closest to the theme of your project.

What does participating in the STEK Electricity competition mean?

STEK Electricity competion runs in tandem with TuKoKe. So if your project is in any way related to electricity, you can also submit it for the STEK Electricity competition when registering to TuKoKe.

Registration is worthwhile since STEK Electricity Competition awards its own prizes for the participating projects.

What does participating in ESA’s Climate Detectives mean?

European Space Agency’s (ESA) Climate Detectives competition runs in tandem with TuKoKe. Thus if your project is in any way related to the Earth or climate, you can also submit it for the Climate Detectives when registering to TuKoke.

Registration is worthwhile since Climate Detectives awards its own prizes for the participating projects.
