Kedves Kollégák!

Most kaptam az alábbi emailt Mick Storr-tól a CERN-ből. Azonnal 
továbbítom. Olyan versenyről van szó, amelyben nemcsak a diák, hanem a 
tanára és iskolája is igen tekintélyes összegű díjat nyerhet.

Kérem, hogy hívják fel az érdekelt kollégák figyelmét is (még akkor is, ha 
esetleg konkurensek lehetnek  :-)).

Figyelem, a beadási határidő IGEN SZOROS: október 7.

Sok sikert kívánok!

Üdvözlettel,
Sükösd Csaba.

Subject: Breakthrough Junior Challenge with Khan Academy

Dear Breakthrough Prize Foundation Laureates,

I wanted to let you know of an exciting initiative announced today. In 
partnership with the Khan Academy, the Breakthrough Prize has launched an 
annual global competition for high school science and math students to 
inspire creative thinking about fundamental concepts in the natural sciences 
and mathematics.

The competition is called the Breakthrough Junior Challenge, and it invites 
students ages 13 to 18 to create original videos that bring to life a concept 
or theory in the life sciences, physics or mathematics. The submissions will 
be judged on the student's ability to communicate complex scientific ideas in 
the most engaging, illuminating, and imaginative ways.

One winner will be recognized and will be awarded a $250,000 educational 
prize. The science teacher who inspired the winning student will win $50,000, 
and the winner's school will receive a state-of-the art science lab valued at 
$100,000, designed in partnership with Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory

The Breakthrough Junior Challenge winner will also be invited to the 
Breakthrough Prize in November, and the student and his or her teacher will 
be announced during the live, nationally televised show, broadcast in the US 
by National Geographic Channel on Sunday, November 8 at 7.00pm PT, 10.00pm 
ET, and rebroadcast globally via National Geographic and the Fox Cable 
Networks.

As we are hoping to reach as many young science enthusiasts as we can, please 
feel free to send this information to any organizations or schools that reach 
high school students, teachers or young scientists. Note that the contest 
runs on a pretty tight timeframe: the deadline for submissions is October 7, 
2015.
