Students
spontaneously seek competition with their peers. It is not surprising that
education and competition are familiarly related. It is natural for students to
compete and, therefore, understandable that competition is put to educational
use.
On the one
hand students are eager to explore their boundaries and expand their
horizons...On the other hand many students feel it is difficult to express
their talents in school. Exams and group assignments do not always capture
students’ unique skills or accurately measure the ability to apply skills to
real-world problems.
By
participating in a competition students benefit from the opportunity to show
their talent and apply skills. Obviously, not everyone who enters the
competition will win. But this is not time wasted, it is time spent learning
and growing. Competitions should provide an enriching and stimulating
experience.
We organise
several language competitions and also take part in competitions organised by
different organisations and educational institutions. This academic year our
school EDUCAnet Praha participated in competition Angličtinář roku 2015/16. For
the first time it had an international dimension in a competition BEST in ENGLISH.
We called
on all those who wanted to check their knowledge with students from other
schools and possibly get one of the many rewards.
The
competition was held on 27 January 2016 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Unfortunately,
the number of competitors was limited. Over 20 students took part, the best
ones.
The online Test
compiled on the B1-C1 levels of the European Framework of Reference included
grammar, listening and orientation of the text. The test lasted exactly 60
minutes from the log in. After completing the test students were acquainted with
their accomplishments. They did their Best.
The final
results will be announced on February 18, 2016.
