Learning and the acquisition of knowledge - Recognition at the National Mathematics Competition
Mykhailo Lyader, an eighth-grader, and Florian Jäniche, a twelfth-grader, both from Georg-Cantor-Gymnasium Halle, along with Michael Wagner from Magdeburger Werner-von-Siemens-Gymnasium's ninth grade, earned second places at the German Mathematics Olympiad. Rainer Biallas, the Saxony-Anhalt representative for the competition, proclaimed the winners on a Sunday. Alfred Sontag from Landesschule Pforta in the tenth grade and Alexandru Corduban in the eleventh grade from Werner-von-Siemens-Gymnasium Magdeburg, though, were granted recognition prizes.
Thirteen students from Saxony-Anhalt were fortunate enough to make it to the national round of this year's Mathematics Olympiad, which took place in Flensburg, Schleswig-Holstein.
