Acsl
Grades 9-12: research questions, methods and evidence...

Is Acsl a good fit for high school students in Grades 9-12?
Acsl is a good fit for students in grades 9-12 who want to learn research questions through methods and evidence. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make a student-owned submission draft with a decision log.
Students study how research questions and methods and evidence shape the challenge, then design and test their own solution. The student keeps a submission record they can explain themselves: the problem they chose, their solution, failed attempts, revisions, and limits.

It was our first computing competition, so we did not know where to begin. The teachers guided us step by step from the start, and we were able to prepare for that first attempt.
