MAT Problem Solving Competition
On Thursday 30th March, several of our budding young mathematicians have been invited to participate in the Mathematical Association of Tasmania’s Problem Solving Competition. The questions are designed to elicit mathematical thinking and may require students to apply their mathematical skills to topics outside of the standard curriculum or to link together different mathematics topics that are traditionally taught separately. Each question may require some experimentation and different approaches before a student makes significant headway. In the past, some outstanding Mathematics students have been identified. For each question, students need to explain their reasoning and show their working (using English as well as Mathematics as necessary) to gain full marks. Students may not be able to complete all questions fully in the time frame but they will receive a better mark if they answer some questions very well rather than many questions poorly.
Students interested in participating in this competition should ask their maths teacher.The competition will run on Thursday 30th of March from 8:35 to 10:35 at Clemes.
For more information please contact Joe Boyer.
