What Makes a Breakthrough Junior Challenge Winning Video? | Interview with Maryam Tsegaye

Maryam Tsegaye was the 2020 winner of the Khan Academy Breakthrough Junior Challenge. Her video explains quantum tunneling in a fun engaging way on a level that the average student can understand. Originally interested in entropy she became interested in quantum tunneling and wanted others to be able to understand this complex yet interesting topic. As a freshman at Stanford University, Tsegaye is interested in Physics and Science Communications. Maryam gives advice to future students entering the Khan Academy Breakthrough Challenge. She tells students that it is more important to find a topic they are passionate about than one they think will win. She encourages students to go for it! After making her video with minimal previous video experience or expertise, she thinks any student interested in the competition should give it a shot.
