Overview of Contests available in and/or for South Africa
Section outline
-
There are many contests in South Africa in which learners can participate. Believe it or not, but in South Africa, unlike most of the rest of Africa, we are blessed with the existence of lots of grassroots contests. Furthermore, we also have opportunities to participate in international contests. This "course" is not really a course. However, for the purposes of Moodle it is presented as a course. You are free to treat it like a course and learn about all the contests available in South Africa, as well as all the international contests learners in South Africa might aspire to participate in. We hope that this "course" will impart knowledge and make all the readers of it that much the wiser.
However, JIMCOBSA is only directly involved with two contests:
- International Mathematics Assessment for Schools (IMAS)
- International Mathematics Competition (IMC)
Even though JIMCOBSA is only directly involved in the above, we recognize that all the contests are intertwined and none of them can stand alone. Well they can stand alone, but they will be so much the worse for wear.
