Please contact Pennie Tilkens at: Email: [email protected] Phone: 920-498-6842 SCIENCE Student capacity: 12 teams of 3 College Knowledge Bowls have been a popular and long-standing competition. From 1953-59 they were broadcast on the radio, and then on TV. College (and also high school) Knowledge Bowls take place all over the U.S. and around the world. They are very popular in Central America. The purposes of creating an A&P Knowledge Bowl at NWTC are two-fold. One is to strengthen the relationships with the high schools that teach A&P for transcribed credit, and the other is to foster a love of the content, an increased knowledge base and team-building skills among our transcribe students in a fun, friendly environment. The competition will have two rounds. - The first is oral testing using open-ended questions and a buzzer system. All teams would compete in this round. - Through elimination the top two scoring teams would move on to the second round which would be a written, hands-on laboratory competition involving identifying the anatomical structures and their functions using models, specimens and the Anatomage table. 2
