We are excited to share that ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ students from grades 2-9 participated in the American Math Olympiad (AMO). The AMO is a well-known math competition that challenges students to solve challenging problems while building their problem-solving and thinking skills. It’s a great opportunity for students to showcase their math abilities and creativity.

About the AMO Problems

AMO problems cover algebra, geometry, number patterns, and more. These problems focus on logical thinking and creative solutions instead of basic calculations. We are so proud of how hard our students worked and how much effort they put into solving these challenging questions.

Certificates and Recognition

The competition was held in November at the ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ Chonburi. Today, we handed out the students’ results and certificates during the morning announcements. It was wonderful to see their classmates cheering them on and celebrating their achievements. We are proud of all their hard work and can’t wait to see them continue to grow and succeed!

The middle school students at ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ Chonburi arrived at school early on the Saturday morning of January 22nd. Our middle school teachers held a one-day workshop on academic integrity, and most of our students attended. The aim was to foster honesty and ethical behavior in the students’ research and academic writing. 

Paraphrasing Instead of Plagiarism 

The workshop was divided into various components, including plagiarism, citations and referencing, time management, and digital citizenship, and the students were eager to get started. Firstly, our students discussed our school’s academic integrity policy and unpacked what it focused on. The students analyzed the forms of plagiarism and what the consequences are. Then, they learned about and practiced how to paraphrase. 

Finding References 

After a break, the students delved into citations and referencing research. These techniques are valuable for future research and academic writing. Our middle school students are now better equipped to write quality papers. They are more prepared for their path to university. 

Digital Citizenship and Social Media 

Lastly, our students spent their last hour solving scenarios about digital citizenship. Our students learned about keeping their information safe and private, being kind online and on social media, and how to protect themselves from the dangers of social media.

By instilling the principles of academic integrity, we are laying the foundation for a future generation of leaders. These students will approach challenges with integrity, contribute ethically to society, and serve as role models for others. Initiatives like these contribute to a brighter and more principled future. We aim to foster academic integrity into our school culture to build principled and responsible citizens at ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ – Chonburi.
