The main work of the XXXII International Olympiad of Schoolchildren “Tuymaada” in mathematics, physics, chemistry and computer science named after M.A. Alekseev has begun. Participants in all areas of the Olympiad began completing the tasks.

This year’s Olympiad is held in a hybrid format: face-to-face and remotely. In total, 155 schoolchildren from 10 regions of Russia and five foreign countries take part in the intellectual competition: Indonesia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Uzbekistan. This format allows us to bring together talented students from all over the world and create a unique atmosphere of scientific cooperation.

In the first half of the day, the participants in the Physics course started the theoretical tour. They had to solve 5 tasks in 5 hours. It should be noted that all participants work offline in physics, which allows them to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the Olympiad and exchange experiences with like-minded people.

After lunch, the participants began to complete the tasks in the  Mathematics, Computer Science and Chemistry fields. 

— In Chemistry, the students had to solve four problems and go through one thought experiment — a great opportunity to test their knowledge, show logic and scientific intuition. 

— In Computer Science, participants solved five programming tasks. The solutions to each problem were uploaded to a special system that immediately checked the correctness of the task and awarded points. Participants could submit an unlimited number of attempts, improving their solutions and gaining maximum points. 

— In “Mathematics” students were solving  four difficult tasks  for five hours, where it was important not only to know the formulas and rules, but also the ability to think logically and find non-standard solutions.

Along with the main offline participants, students from other regions of Russia and foreign countries were able to complete the tasks at the same time. Proctoring was organized for them — a special monitoring procedure using a webcam, audio and desktop screen recording. Someone worked from home, someone gathered with their national team at school. Experts were constantly in touch with the participants to promptly resolve any technical issues and prevent malfunctions.

Tomorrow, July 5, the participants in the fields of “Computer Science” and “Mathematics” will continue their work and begin solving new Olympiad tasks. The participants of the Physics course will have a practical tour where they will be able to put their knowledge into practice.
