About Bebras

Bebras is an international initiative aiming to promote Informatics and Computational Thinking among students.

The 2021 Bebras Australia Computational Thinking Challenge (digitalcareers.csiro.au/bebras) is part of an international initiative that promotes Computational Thinking amongst students. Bebras is aligned with and supports the Australian Digital Technologies Curriculum.

More Everest Fun this week!

 Grade 5 Jamboarding!

The grade 5 Everest students have been rewording complex ideas and discussing fine distinctions of an author’s language. Students have recorded their responses via Google Jamboard. Jamboard has proven to be a great tool for collaboration and for the recording of ideas in real time. The students had fun using the technology and were fully engaged during the sessions. As a teacher it is a perfect tool for providing students with real-time feedback, as well as, for promoting discussion. 

Go Everest students and Jamboard!
