Design thinking with Robotics and Computational Thinking International Competition 2024
We are delighted to bring you, Design thinking with robotics and Computational Thinking International Competition (DrCT). We are the team that brought BEBRAS Computational Thinking to Singapore and now offer BEBRAS as a free training platform for all students in Singapore joining DrCT. BEBRAS is the world’s leading community which develops CT questions for schools. We invite you to sign up for DrCT and open the doors to free CT training using our internationally acclaimed BEBRAS tasks and breaking down problems solving, analysing the validity of solutions and spotting patterns in data – all essential skills for the workplace. We hope to create a platform that can allow neighbourhood schools’ students to have an opportunity to learn about informatics in a more creative way and compete with the rest of the world. Using Computational Thinking also allows the students to have a systematic approach to learn programming and our methodology of combining design thinking and robotics will provide an intuitive first introduction to programming, as well as infinite opportunities for gradually building more advanced projects using an electronics platform fulfilling a standard loved and tested by millions of people who use informatics for real-world application projects across the globe.
To cultivate students’ creativity, logical reasoning ability, algorithmic and computational thinking skills. By solving our contest tasks and using design thinking methodology to develop solutions for a problem statement, we will facilitate a deeper understanding of the world around the learner and enable them to solve everyday problems by leveraging the power of computers and information technology. Students will pick up the finer points of programming, solution focus and be action oriented which is not merely writing a piece of code but involves useful algorithmic techniques and problemsolving skills.
