Görlitz elementary school student triumphs at the Saxon computer science competition!
Görlitz, Deutschland - Maja Mikonya from Görlitz has a reason to celebrate. The ten -year -old student of the Diesterwegschule has picked up at the top of the Saxon computer science competition in the third and fourth grade age group. Around 40 students from all over Saxony fought for the front places in their class level, and Maja was more than surprised by her great success. "It was a lot of fun!" Belassed the young computer science entertainer, who regularly visits the all-day offer "Computer for Kids" at her school.
It is particularly noteworthy that Maja took second place in the competition at her school last year and thus qualified for the state competition at the Technical University in Dresden. This year, a total of around 4,500 students took part in the competition, which has existed since 1997 and thus has a long tradition. The competition is not only an exciting event, but also an opportunity to measure themselves with like -minded people and to expand their own knowledge.about the competition
The Saxon Computer Science Competition is under the patronage of the Saxon Minister of State for Culture and is aimed at students of general education and vocational schools with preference for computer science. The aim is to arouse interest in computeristic training and to support the promotion of talent in the field of computer science. "Maja and many other young talents show that computer science is not only a school subject, but can also give a lot of fun," noted the responsible minister.
An element that makes competition special is the division into two stages. The first stage takes place at schools or in extracurricular institutions in December, the second stage in which the national winners are determined will take place in March. What is new is the introduction of Regio Challenges, which will take place in four cities this year, including Görlitz and Dresden. These challenges offer students the opportunity to deepen their knowledge in an exciting format and show what they can do in a direct comparison.
Future view
Maja has already expressed her wish to take part in the competition again next year, although it is still unclear whether the competition in 2026 will take place again. "I hope that I can be there again," said the ambitious student. The Saxon computer science competition appeals to students of all general education schools in Saxony, from primary schools to high schools.
The team of students at the TU Dresden, which supports the preparation and implementation of the competition, does the rest to ensure that this great Initiative will continue to be an integral part of the Saxon school system in the future. If you are interested yourself, you can find out about the details of the Regio Challenges and take part in the program. More information is available on the websites of Sächsische.de , Saxony school and ljbw.de .
Maja's success is a nice proof that the commitment to computer science and playful learning can promote creativity and problem -solving skills of young people.
