A team of Canterbury High School students displayed an impressive ability to work together during competition held Tuesday at Tri-State University. In the first session, students worked on 100 multiple-choice questions. In the second session, students applied concepts from the earlier test to solve problems.
Rules governing conduct of members within a group are loose.
The students are allowed to talk freely and make use of calculators and reference materials to arrive at answers. It s up to the students to divide the work and find ways to cooperate. Enneking was very impressed with local results. He theorized that the Canterbury team s impressive showing its multiple choice total was 18 points higher than the second place score was due to its members ability to work together. Since the host University strives to produce people ready to join the workforce, Enneking smiled in noting that lessons in cooperation fit Tri-State s goals perfectly.
