Main | Projects | BIBLE QUIZ AT SCHOOLS
From 2016, the Bible Society of Armenia runs the educational “Bible Quiz” project at public schools of Armenia. This project gives schoolchildren and teachers the opportunity to get together around the Bible study and gain accurate knowledge about the Holy Scriptures.
This program provides an opportunity for schoolchildren, and teachers to unite around Bible study and gain accurate Bible knowledge. The aim of the program is to expand the audience of Bible study by involving schools, other educational institutions, to develop pupils' and students' Bible knowledge through a game-competition method.
This program is in two stages. The competition for each stage is prepared by a specially prepared training manual: "Holy Book Treasury 1st stage" and "Holy Book Treasury 2nd stage". This manual consists of sections "Old Testament" և "New Testament". Each section has 100-115 questions with three answers, two of which are wrong and one is correct. The reading material from the Bible is attached to the questions. The contestant must read the material and find the correct answer to the question.
The Bible knowledge quiz (competition) can be attended by teams from RA public schools under the guidance of the Armenian Church History teacher (Teachers do not participate in the competition).
Each school can represent one team of four students. Each team must choose its captain, who, after the first group competition, together with the captains of the other teams, will participate in the Senior Games and Keywords competitions.
The teams participating in the first round are asked 10 questions each with 3 answers, of which 2 are wrong and 1 is correct (the correct answer to the question can be found by reading the attached text). Then the team captains are asked 5 additional questions without 3 answers, և 3 questions with keywords. The keywords are 4 prompts taken from the texts of the Treasury, which help to answer the question "What is it about?" Or "Who is it about?"
It takes up to 2 minutes to think about the answer to each question.
In both rounds, the teams with the maximum 18 points in both rounds are considered the winners and take the first place. The teams with 17.5-17 points take the second place in the competition, and the teams with 16.5-16 points take the third place.
The project runs both live and online.
