All the assignments are interactive – arcade games, quizzes, crosswords, puzzles and more. They vary by the degree of difficulty. The questions will be chosen randomly for each player.
The questions for this year’s championship cover nearly all the major IT development trends. Contestants will demonstrate their knowledge of robotics, artificial intelligence, internet of things, blockchain technology, virtual and augmented reality, telemedicine and cybersecurity. In September-October 2018, they will be able to prepare for the game on its official Facebook and Vkontakte pages.
As per tradition, students will be able to beat all records and improve their score through two extra assignments – either holding a preparatory online Learn the Internet, Manage It! tournament at school or publishing an article on the upcoming tournament on social media or in school or city press. Successful completion of any of these tasks will earn bonus points.
