No.1、科学大比拼介绍

科学大比拼The Cambridge Upper Secondary  Science Competition

科学大比拼是提供给剑桥学校学生的一项课外活动，目的是帮助学生们培养对科学的热情，并对平时的学科学习进行有益的补充。学生们需要组建小组，使用科学的方法研究感兴趣的话题。

以小组的形式开展研究项目，学生们可以培养一些关键技能，例如批判性思维、解决问题、协作和沟通。这些能力对他们在学习和职场取得成功都至关重要。

2019年，来自世界各地的近260所学校参加了我们第一次举办的科学大比拼，全球总冠军是印度Jayshree Periwal International School，获奖项目名为“Live or Dye？合成染料的负面影响”。

东亚地区，在2019年有15所学校参加了最终角逐，来自北京市朝阳区人大附中朝阳分校的团队Big Four获得了东亚区第一名并接受了访谈，三年之后，我们再次对他们进行了访谈 。

Following a break during the pandemic, we are pleased to announce that the Cambridge Upper Secondary Science Competition has just been relaunched.

The competition is an extracurricular activity that helps students build their passion for science and complements their academic studies.

Students work in teams to investigate a topic of interest through practical work, using the scientific method.

Through their projects, learners develop key skills that are widely considered essential for success in education and employment, such as critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration and communication.

Almost 260 schools from around the world took part in our first competition in 2019 and the overall global winner was Jayshree Periwal International School in India. The winning project was titled ‘Live or Dye? Negative impacts of synthetic dyes’. The school’s chairperson Jayshree Periwal said: “Winning the competition has electrified and invigorated the students.”

15 schools in East Asia joined in the first competition in 2019. And Big Four from RDFZ Chaoyang Branch received Best in Region award. 

What’s involved?
