Jamaica, and Antigua & Barbuda students dominant at the 2024 Caribbean STEM Olympiads<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The Caribbean Science Foundation (CSF) held the second annual Caribbean STEM Olympiads (CSO) on 17 \u2013 21 January 2024 in a virtual format. In these Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Olympiads, individuals and teams representing educational institutions, clubs or themselves competed in the (a) Math Olympiad, (b) Computer Coding Olympiad and (c) Robotics Olympiad at three different age levels (12 \u2013 15, 16 \u2013 18 and 19 \u2013 21). The Math Olympiad was held in a Jeopardy-style format and covered topics ranging from consumer arithmetic to vector calculus. The Computer Coding Olympiad tasked applicants to create apps, games, and websites aimed at solving a challenge faced by Caribbean communities.\u00a0 The challenges tackled by teams in the 2024 Olympiads included geohazards and climate change, inter and intra country transportation, public health, non-communicable diseases, crime, and money movement and financial education. The Robotics Olympiad tasked applicants with building innovative robots from kits at Level I, and complex robots starting from scratch with a set of random parts at Level III.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A total of 131 students from 11 Caribbean countries registered for the 2024 Olympiads. After the preliminary rounds, 39 teams (83 students) made it to the finals. There were 47 finalists in the Math Olympiad, 22 in the Computer Coding Olympiad, and 14 in the Robotics Olympiad. Medal certificates and cash prizes of US$ 500, 400, 300 and 200 were awarded to the teams winning platinum, gold, silver, and bronze medals, respectively.\u00a0 The Awards and Closing Ceremony, held on Sunday 21 January 2024, revealed that Jamaica led the medal count with 8 medals, followed by Antigua and Barbuda with 6, Belize with 4, Barbados with 3, Saint Lucia with 2, and Grenada, Guyana, Saint Kitts & Nevis and Trinidad &Tobago with 1 each.<\/p>

 <\/p>\n

Regarding the most prestigious medals, Jamaica earned 2 platinum medals. \u00a0A team consisting of Chad Wright, Micah Edwards and Sidan-E Walker who attend Campion College, but represented themselves, won the Level 1 Math Olympiad platinum medal, and Michaela Brown, Jam\u00eda Williamson, Kelsey Atkinstall and Kathryn McLean, also from Campion College but representing themselves, together won a platinum medal in the Level 2 Computer Coding Olympiad for their public-health focused project, \u201cHospitalFlow<\/em>.\u201d \u00a0From Belize, Giselie Garcia who attends Muffles College High School, but represented herself, won the platinum medal in the Level 1 Computer Coding Olympiad with her hurricane preparedness project titled \u201cProtective Measures<\/em>\u201d.\u00a0 Avinda Dhoray, Saiesh Rampersad and Kovid Capildeo from Presentation College Chaguanas in Trinidad and Tobago, together won a platinum medal for stellar performance in the Level 2 Math Olympiad, while a team consisting of Kahlil Phillip, Rochelle Griffith and Tristan Pivotte, former students of T.A Marryshow Community College, Grenada, who are currently on a gap year, earned a platinum medal in the Level 3 Math Olympiad.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Professor Cardinal Warde, the Interim Executive Director of the CSF reported that \u201cthe STEM outlook for the Region is very positive.\u00a0 This year we raised the bar a little higher than it was in the inaugural year (2023) for the Math Olympiad, and I was again impressed by the performance of the medalists.\u00a0 To further raise the bar for our robotics and coding efforts, starting in April of 2024 the CSF will offer coaching sessions for interested robotics and coding teams to help them prepare for our 2025 Robotics and Computer Coding Olympiads.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The competing students also had a lot to say. \u00a0Platinum medalist, \u201cTeam PCC Pi-rates\u201d from Trinidad and Tobago stated, \u201cwe would like to thank the CSF for hosting this competition as it helped to develop our analytical and critical thinking skills and we were able to apply everything we learnt in order to achieve success. We look forward to next year\u2019s competition.\u201d \u00a0Team Ravens of Jamaica, who won a silver medal in Level 2 Robotics said, \u201cThank you on behalf of Team Ravens; this experience was truly amazing, and we have learnt a lot from this opportunity to participate!\u201d And then Tejasvarun Kandavel, a 13-year-old student from Guyana who won a bronze medal in the Level I Computer Coding Olympiad said, \u201cI would like to thank the CSF for giving me the opportunity to participate in the Coding Olympiad Finals. I would also like to thank the judges for reviewing my project and giving me feedback on how to improve it.\u201d<\/p>
