Register now for IMPACT!

IMPACT! is designed to help students develop problem solving and creative thinking skills. 

The program will utilize a 10-point problem solving model based on similar models used in Destination Imagination and the Science Olympiad.  It begins by showing methods to clearly define the problem, and then encourages students to examine the situation and evaluate whether there is a more efficient or productive solution.

The second portion of the program will afford students the opportunity to apply what they have learned in a challenge course.  A series of eight obstacles/scenarios will be created in which the team must use the principles from the model to solve the problem in the most efficient manner.  Teams will be scored for each initiative and the cumulative point total will determine our winning team. 

IMPACT! will be held on a date in March 2012.  Registration will begin January 2011.
