| About
the Tournament |
 |
1. The IYPT - Brazil - 2005
(IYPT-BR) is the non-governmental organization without
lucrative ends whose purpose is to divulge the INTERNATIONAL
YOUNG PHYSICISTS ' TOURNAMENT (IYPT) in Brazil and to
select and to prepare a teams of Brazilian students for
the tournament, that occurs annually in a different country
of the world. |
2. The organization
of the IYPT in Brazil is under responsibility of the Ozzy
& Böhmer Educational Projects.
3. The IYPT was
created in 1979 for professors of the Department of Physics
of the University of Moscow, Russia, integrant country of
the old Soviet Union, with the purpose to develop a different
competition of the traditional Olimpíads ones.
4. Besides stimulating
the interest of the students for the Physics, the objectives
of the IYPT are to develop the independent and critical thought
and to stimulate the investigativo and colaborativo work.
For this, they are considered by the International Board of
the tournament, 17 open problems of investigativa nature to be
debated, studied and decided to the long one of the year that
precedes the international tournament.
5. The problems
of the tournament can be considered by any person of any country
and are selected in seminaries of the national coordinators
of the IYPT ("chaimen") immediately after the accomplishment
of the international tournament. These problems must enclose all
the areas of the Physics and must develop the creativity,
the concentration, the inductive and deductive reasoning,
the ability to construct hypotheses, the capacity of comment,
analysis arguments, formularization of hypotheses, establishment
of relations of cause and effect, as well as the respect to
other opinions.
6. For the nature
of the problems, the tournament also stimulates the development
of the leadership capacity, to work in team, to divide responsibilities
and to manage conflicts, beyond the improvement of the abilities
of verbal communication and writing, as much in the Portuguese
Language as in the English Language.
