The final round of the international physics olympiad "Your Path to Real Science" was held in Mali at the Django Cissé private school—the Kati Multifunctional Center. Nineteen students from Mali, Niger, and Guinea advanced to the finals following the first round: 15 in physics (14 from Mali and one from Niger) and four in mathematics (from Guinea).
Despite the holiday period and the end of Ramadan, 12 students came to school on Sunday to complete assignments and compete for the opportunity to study in Russia.
The final round included a more challenging task: a demonstration task in which students are shown a vivid physical phenomenon on video, described in simple, everyday language. The students must explain the observed phenomenon by translating it into physical language. This allows them to assess how they apply theoretical knowledge to describing real-world phenomena and processes.
The Olympiad is supported by the Russian House's partner, the Center for Public Diplomacy, and is part of an educational collaboration aimed at identifying talented schoolchildren and providing them with opportunities to study at Russian universities.
Based on the results of the final stage, winners will be determined who will receive quotas for study at NSU.
