ArtCodesPhysics Competition

 

WiPiSA and AlgoRythm Tech have collaborated with Mazi to offer the “Art CodesPhysics” competition in honour of Youth MONTH!!
 
As it has been previously mentioned, this competition will be divided into two sectors:
 
Physics Part:
 
WHAT: A4 Art drawing Submissions of any kind will be accepted with only one rule: it has to relate to Physics! Poetry, paintings, sculptures, drawings, etc. – any and all Physics-related art is eligible!
Few examples of physics topics: 
  1. Energy.
  2. Electricity.
  3. Particle model of matter.
  4. Atomic structure.
  5. Forces.
  6. Waves.
  7. Magnetism and electromagnetism.
  8. Space/ Astronomy
The art piece must be labeled (in the bottom right hand corner) with the learner’s name and surname, grade, and school name. The document should then be scanned and forwarded to: wpisa@saip.org.za
 
Machine Learning/AI Part:
 
Artificial intelligence is sometimes portrayed as a magnificent technology that only a select few and the very intelligent can comprehend. Although the preceding statement contains some truth, it can be reduced to a child’s comprehension level.
 
The course will focus on introducing AI to learners, therefore it must be exciting, inventive, interactive, and simple to grasp. The course will involve a two-day training session in which we will basically provide tools and provide direction so that participants understand what to do and where to get the resources. The course/challenge will conclude with the learners having developed an image classifier using free web resources. The best classifier, as determined by a rubric on which we must all agree, will win.
 
 
For this part, interested learners will have to register at: 
 
 
Fantastic prizes are up for grabs!!!
