The "Retame and I learn" program, launched by the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT) and the Ministry of Education, is already approaching the three thousand students of ESO and Bachillerato participants, who will begin to compete in this telematic contest next Monday Day 20. The developers of the Digital Content Production Center of the UPCT have visited some twenty institutes throughout the Region to encourage registration, which ends on Sunday 19.
The participants come from the fifty or so institutes of the whole regional geography, from Yecla to Aguilas and from Caravaca to Cartagena.
Six days after the competition starts, there are more than 2,623 targeted students.
Scholarships to study in London, iPhone, tablets and laptops are some of the prizes for the winners of the contest.
'Rétame y Aprendo' will test the knowledge of the students of the institutes of the Region of Murcia in seven different subjects: mathematics, language and literature, history, physical education, English, biology and geography.
The program is developed through 'UPCTplay', the platform of games applied to teaching developed by the Polytechnic of Cartagena.
Once the program starts, students will compete with two types of educational games, one on-line called 'The Roulette' and another face-to-face known as 'The Push Button'.
Both consist of answering test-type questions, sorted by subject and with only one true answer.
The program will be divided into two categories: one for students of 3rd and 4th ESO and the other for students of 1st and 2nd Baccalaureate.
The program will be divided into three phases.
In the first one, the students of each institute will compete with each other in an online way.
The two best students from each institute will go to the next phase.
In the second, the classified will compete 'on-line' between them and will pass to the Grand Final the 32 best students.
This last phase will be held in face-to-face format at the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena.
