When the balance of 2023 is less than 1%; when we are ready to run to 2024... At this time, the frequent occurrence of good news is not only the reward for the last 1%, but also the direction towards the first ray of sunshine in 2024.
Congratulations to Hong Wenxue on her excellent performance in Harvard BPC, British Physics JPC assessment and ASCL American Computer Science assessment.
The British Physics Assessment (JPC Elementary) is organized by the British Physics Olympiad Organizing Committee. The question types are novel, combining physics principles with common sense, aiming to attract and challenge elementary physics enthusiasts. This activity is inclusive and fun, covering various topics such as dynamics, electricity, optics, thermodynamics, waves, units, and a little astronomy. The purpose is to cultivate junior high school students' interest in physics, improve their participation, and encourage them to undertake more demanding challenges in the future. The British Physics Thinking Challenge (JPC Elementary) aims to deepen the understanding and love of physics research among excellent students, deeply develop their observation, thinking, practice, and operation abilities, and cultivate future young physicists.
The American Computer Science Thinking Assessment originated in Silicon Valley, with a history of more than 40 years, and is one of the oldest computer programming activities for elementary and middle school students in the United States. The event has been officially certified and recommended by the National Association of School Superintendents of the United States (NASSP) and the American Association of Teachers of Computer Science, as well as supported by famous high-tech and educational companies such as Google, Adobe, No Starch Press, O'Reilly Media, Pearson, Pragmatic Bookshelf, and Wolfram, amongst others. With the increasing emphasis on coding education in various countries, many elementary and middle school students from the United States, Canada, Europe, Africa, and Asia participate actively every year.
