DecaNUN Program

 

Our students created DecaNUN Knowledge Contest to improve themselves academically and socially. It is based on the US Academic Decathlon quiz our students encountered while searching for competitions and activities. It is planned that the competition will be designed in accordance with our corporate culture and values. All our students were included in the organization team and the planning phase. The competition was announced to the school community via e-mail. 16 teams were selected from among the applicants to compete in the competition, which will be organized on both of our campuses.

The first stage of the competition, consisting of five main sections and the following section titles, was implemented on Wednesday, 17 May:

Oratory - Halide Edip Adıvar: One person from each team randomly selected the papers on which various topics were written, thought about it for 3 minutes, and then made a speech for3 minutes.

Mind Games - Abdulhamid Khan: One person from each team had taken to a chess competition after they have answered the questions about three situations in which logic is at the forefront.

Literature - Amin Maalouf: The students answered the multiple-choice questions given on literature, Turkish and grammar. Afterwards, they created an article of at least 300 words on the previously assigned topic.

Social Sciences - Piri Reis: Multiple choice questions on five different subjects (art, psychology, history, ecology, geography) are presented in the form of a quiz.

Mathematics - Omer Khayyam: Multiple choice questions scored according to difficulty levels were answered by the teams.

On Thursday, May 18, the two teams with the highest scores from both campuses in the first tier competed in the parliamentary system; on the topic given to them the day before - Anonymous social media accounts should/should not be banned.

While the finalist team of the girls' campus (Azra April, Ozge, Sena, Jana, Zeynep Ece) came first in the debate and DecaNUN, our student Muhammed Musab, in the boys' campus finalist team, elected as the best speaker of the contest.
