Hello Denis
Do you find any objection from your country's Ministry of Education if you commit to this type of learning "Objective by project" .........because with us in Tunisia we must limit ourselves to the official program of our ministry...
Best Regards from Tunisia

Mr. Bryan

@Bousl2336873cb4 Hi Chokri!
There have been no restrictions from the Ministry of Education so far. I am only confirming the training program with my Head of Secondary.

SOLVE REAL-WORLD CHALLENGES ON EARTH & IN SPACE

The NASA International Space Apps Challenge is a hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, technologists, and innovators around the world to come together and use open data from NASA and its Space Agency Partners to create solutions to challenges we face on Earth and in space.

The 2024 NASA Space Apps Challenge theme is "The Sun Touches Everything" in collaboration with NASA Heliophysics. This theme is in alignment with the Heliophysics Big Year, a global celebration of the Sun’s influence on Earth and the entire solar system, as declared by NASA.

Registrations open July 18.

Hello Denis,
The NASA Space apps is really interesting, thanks for sharing. I will implement in my classroom in the Science class to show how the sun touches everything. It is a concrete example of AR and VR, where students will be exposed to discovery learning.

What a splendid initiative, Denis. Taking part in/organizing Olympiads is a perfect leap forward, also to reflect on your learning trajectory and work on the areas improvement. Healthy competition for the best Practice and it has no boundaries. Now the become more scalable attracting wider participation.

Hello @Housna
I'm glad you found this post helpful! I plan on participating in all the competitions you listed this year. I'd be grateful if you could add any competitions that you know of. It would be great if you could share your experience participating in the NASA competition and others.

@Bilim Thanks, Bilim! I would be grateful if you could share your experience participating in international competitions, as well as links to any competitions you recommend.
