ThinkQuest is all about students thinking and learning together.
New to ThinkQuest Competitions is the Narrative Competition. Teams choose a Topic and create rich content using special online project tools. In the Website Competition, students work in teams to create the best educational websites and
compete for exciting prizes, including a trip to ThinkQuest Live, an
educational extravaganza celebrating their achievements. The competition offers a
unique project-based learning experience to students and teachers
around the world. Globally relevant subjects and diverse teams are
encouraged.
The teams' websites are published for the world to see in the
ThinkQuest Library, which now contains over 5,500
educational websites. The link to the library is on the right.
Think.com, the online community for learning, has been combined with ThinkQuest and known as ThinkQuest Projects. But the mission remains the same. Learning is a
social phenomenon. Few students are motivated to write for an audience of one --
their teacher. By providing a wider yet protected audience, ThinkQuest Projects
turns students into multimedia authors for a global community and
allows peers to think and learn together. ThinkQuest Projects is more than a blog
. . . and safer too! Only students and teachers from member schools
can enter this password-protected learning community. Once inside,
members use websites and interactive tools to publish their ideas,
collaborate on projects, and build knowledge together. Click the ThinkQuest Projects link on the right to learn more.
ThinkQuest Competitions and ThinkQuest Projects are sponsored by the Oracle Education Foundation.
TIES has been the Minnesota ThinkQuest Partner since 2001.
