Alaska Tsunami National Ocean Sciences Bowl

WELCOME TO THE

13th annual competition February 5-7, 2010 • Seward, Alaska

The goal of this competition is to recognize and reward excellence among students interested in ocean studies. The bowl also aims to encourage high school students, their teachers and parents to increase their knowledge of the oceans and to broaden awareness of the critical value of ocean research.

Again included in the 2010 Tsunami Bowl is the research component of the competition, in which teams of four or five students prepare a 20-page research paper that is submitted in December, and present a 20-minute oral presentation at the Tsunami Bowl in February. The research project counts as 50 percent of the final score and complements the quiz competition, where teams of four students, plus an optional alternate, compete against each other in a timed quiz match, which contributes the other 50 percent of the final score.

In the quiz competition, students must be the first to “buzz-in” for the opportunity to answer a multiple-choice or short-answer question. The game is organized as a series of matches in a round-robin/double-elimination format. In each match, two teams compete against each other and the clock, trying to be the fastest to answer the toss-up questions. Team challenge questions, more complex questions which require critical analysis and written answers, test students’ critical thinking skills.

The winning team of the 2010 Tsunami Bowl will have all expenses paid to travel to St. Petersburg, Florida April 25–27, 2010, to compete against 24 other regional winners from across the United States.

To encourage participation by students of a more artistic persuasion, the Tsunami Bowl includes an optional art show. The NOSB Ocean Connection Juried Art Show is open to all "ocean-theme" artwork created by high school students (grades 9–12) from schools participating in the NOSB competition. Students with art entries do not have to be members of a NOSB team to submit art.
