Task
 | Yes, we can In a famous 1998 commercial, people go on the ice after a Frisian says: "It kin net" After they fall through, it turns out that he meant "it's not possible" rather than "it's just possible". This year's assignment is equally about whether it is possible or not, and water and jugs play a starring role. The assignment challenges you to investigate with a team. However, don't be afraid of cold feet and dive in. We assume you won't fall through the ice. Yes, you can do it!Dutch version |
Background information
|
Mathematics B-day During the Dutch Mathematics Day Contest students work in teams of about 3 to 4 members on an open mathematical problem solving task during a couple of hours. The product of this work is a report (and sometimes a presentation). |
Using your skills in a new setting The task gives the students the opportunity to show what they have learned from mathematics and how they can use the knowledge and skills in a new situation. |
