Quiz Bowl is a competitive, academic,
interscholastic activity for which players attend periodic
practices and then represent their school at varsity
tournaments. Those tournaments may be based on the
school's athletic conference, school district, county, or state.
Quiz bowl questions range over the entire spectrum of school
curriculum and also include a certain amount of current events,
sports, and popular culture. The matches feature a blend
of individual competition and team collaboration, since no
individual player is likely to be an expert in all subject
areas. Quiz bowl can reinforce classroom lessons and also
encourage players to go beyond their assignments to master other
areas as well. |
