The Bebras Australia Computational Thinking Challenge will take place from 7– 21 September 2020. Bebras is a great way to engage students In Mathematics in collaborative, creative, and critical thinking.
The goal of the Bebras Challenge is to promote computational thinking skills in a way that highlights student abilities.
- The challenge is made up of 15 questions ranging in difficulty.
- Students in years 5 to 12 have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
- Students complete the challenge in one sitting at anytime within the two week challenge period.
- After the challenge has closed, students can log in to view their results, re-attempt questions and receive immediate feedback on their answers.
The students in Mr Houlihan’s Year 8 Maths class practised some problems from previous competitions using the Bebras 365 website and reflected on some of the questions they attempted.
