Noutăți de pe de pe terenul de joacă cu imaginația, tehnologiile și pasiunea.

Informații pe secțiuni

La Software Design trebuie să trimiteți propunerile de proiecte până pe data de 13 martie 2012. Un chestie bulversantă este informația de pe http://www.imaginecup.com/Competition/sdlocalsites.aspx în care dacă dăm click pe România ni se spune că nu se organizează finală națională!!! Eu nu știu ce să mai cred atâta timp cât alte informații oficiale nu avem decât de pe site-ul competiției.

Din alte surse datele ar fi cam așa:

  • Etapa locala, pe centru universitar ( intre 1 si 15 aprilie )
  • Finala națională (între 1 si 15 mai)

La IT Challenge mai avem un ultim quiz (Quiz 6) pe data de 26 ianuarie 2012, și cu asta încheiem runda I. După finalizarea rundei I, vom avea un live meeting la nivel global cu studenții din întreaga lume și cu echipa de judecători, în care se vor explica detalii pentru Runda a doua.

Despre celelalte secțiuni nu mai avem nici un fel de noutăți față de numerele trecute.

 

Poate vă mai interesează și: http://paper.li/f-1319192195 un jurnal on-line în care se adună zilnic referințe despre Imagine Cup.

Drum bun către Australia!

Competitors top is somehow identically with precedent one.

Q. Why is based on the sum of the top scores?

A. Because it is a criterion measure of competitiveness. The more you are involved in competition and better prepared you can get a bigger score and a better position in the rankings.

 

What’s next?

Australia 2012! But we first must finish First Round and after that Second round.
