A Conversation for Odyssey of the Mind
Tournament of the Minds
senor dikdik Started conversation Oct 7, 2002
There is Australian program called Tournament of the Minds, which sounds to me to be alot like Odyssey of the Minds (although less poetic!). It is run, like Odyssey, through public and private primary and high schools, and is considered to be really important, especially in a time when the New South Wales education system is feeling the strain of changing times. I participated in it as a young girl in primary school, when i was perhaps 11, and looking back I can now see that it is one of the reasons why I am in the design profession now.
I'm very happy to hear that the same sort of programs are being run world wide. THE WORLD NEEDS MORE THINKERS!
