SUMMARY:Cēsis Puzzle Day
DESCRIPTION:28.10.2024. \nSpace Intelligence Center\, Cīrulīšu street 63\, Cēsis \nCēsis Puzzle Day is a logic game adapted from Harvard University\, where it has already become a tradition. During the game\, both students and pupils are invited to solve the most challenging logic puzzles using their creativity and problem-solving skills. The tasks are designed to be fun and engaging\, encouraging participants to think critically and apply their knowledge of logic. \n\n  \nRiga 10-12th graders\, representing their school in teams of 3 students\, are invited to participate in the first Puzzle Day in Cēsis. Students will be given ten logic problems to solve in three hours. Each task has only one correct answer\, and that is one word. Students can use the internet to complete the tasks. The team with the most correct answers in the shortest time wins the game. The three teams with the highest scores will receive prizes from the game’s sponsors. \nThrough this initiative\, Cēsis Municipality and Riga Business School\, in cooperation with Luminor Bank\, want to encourage more young people to: \n\nDevelop problem-solving and creative thinking in students;\nEngage students in solving logic problems as a basis for further learning of programming;\nEncourage students’ collaborative problem-solving skills;\nTo stimulate students’ interest in information technology and programming.\n\nTo emphasise that computer science is not just about programming\, but about problem solving\, none of the tasks require programming experience. \nSee a sample task\n  \nAgenda: \n9:00-9:30 Registration and refreshments \n9:30-9:45 Opening \n9:45-10:00 Instruction on tasks \n10:00-13:00 Task-solving \n13:00-14:00 Entertainment stands from event sponsors (while the results are being compiled) \n14:00-14:45 Explanation of correct answers \n14:45-15:15 Announcement of results and awards \nInformation about the logic game has been sent to all secondary schools in Cēsis.
