< Back to FGE Home Future Georgia Educators FGE Knowledge Bowl FGE Knowledge Bowl A fun, interactive way to test students’ knowledge of their Education Pathway Curriculum and the Georgia Code of Ethics for Educators! Your school has the opportunity to enter up to two teams (limit three students per team) to compete in the FGE Knowledge Bowl at FGE Day! What Kind of Questions Will There Be? Questions will be drawn from sections of the ECE and EAP curricula that overlap (human development, education professional organizations, education ethics, etc.). This competition requires students to demonstrate knowledge of pathway content and to think about an ethical issue and employ critical-thinking skills to assess the situation in light of the standards in the Code of Ethics. There will also be business etiquette questions and "general knowledge" (things we all learned in school). What Format is Used? Working as a team, students will utilize Kahoot! , an Internet-based, digital classroom response system. Only one device is needed per team. How Many Students Are on a Team? Three students per team How Many Teams Can I Enter? Limit two teams per school How Do We Enter? It's simple. When you register to attend FGE Day, the opportunity to enter is on the registration form. Is There a Study Guide? There sure is! Click here: Knowledge Bowl Study Guide If We Attend More than One FGE Day, How Many Times Can We Compete? You may compete only at the first FGE Day of the school year that you attend. What Do the Winners Receive? The top three teams will receive medals (gold, silver, and bronze), and all three teams will be eligible to compete in the State FGE Knowledge Bowl competition in the spring.
