This year 13 area high schools were represented by 87 students and 22 teachers. The students and teachers were treated to two excellent talks. The first talk, what is statistics, was given by Dr. Metry who is an Associate Professor of Mathematics at West Georgia. This was a presentation of a mathematical model that addresses the over population problem of two competing species of antelope. It is being used at the Ndumu Game Reserve in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
Positive results are already evident.
Between the talks, students took tests in Algebra, Advanced Math, Calculus and Geometry. The top three scores in each category were presented with a certificate of recognition and a monetary prize at an awards ceremony that ended the day.
