Virtual Tournaments

Post by dcambrid »

After having to cancel our Regional tournament, our organizing committee was discussing if there was anything we could do virtually to allow the kids to compete. Maybe not do the full tournament with medals and awards, but to at least give them something. We wondered if it were possible, how many students would still be interested it doing something online. Also any ideas people have for how to do it, e-mail the test with a time it must be returned, Kahoot, etc. Obviously this would not include any build events. Just thought I would put this out there and see what kind of ideas people had.

Several threads have already discussed this possibility. If you're interested in doing something online, feel free to check out this thread! There might be builds, but it won't be an official Science Olympiad competition because of copyright restrictions.
