Final Round

Event Details :

Event Name : Technical Quiz Finals

Organizer : Basic Science and Humanities Under ISTE Student’s Chapter

Date : 18^th August 2023

Time : at 1:30pm

Venue : ISE Seminar Hall

Number of Finalists : 5 teams

FACULTY MEMBERS PRESENT : Mr. Ravi Chandra, Ms. Hemalatha. K, Dr. Sujata F Harlapur, Ms.Lakshmi H N , Prizes are distributed by Dr.Rajanna M ,Head and Associate professor, ISE

The finals of the technical quiz consisted of a total of 5 rounds. The first round was the "Emoji Round," followed by the "Crossword Round," an "Audio Round," an "HRD Round," and concluding with the "Technical Round." This multi-round format seems to have provided a diverse and comprehensive assessment of participants' knowledge and abilities across various aspects of technology and related fields.
Emoji Round : Participants likely had to decode technical terms or concepts represented using emoji’s. This round might have tested their quick thinking and familiarity with terminology.
Crossword Round : This round probably involved solving a crossword puzzle where the clues and answers were related to technical subjects. It likely required participants to have a strong grasp of technical vocabulary.
Audio Round : In this round, participants might have listened to audio clips or recordings related to various technical topics and answered questions based on what they heard. This could have tested their ability to identify and comprehend technical information from audio sources.
HRD Round : The Human Resources Development (HRD) round might have focused on soft skills, teamwork, communication, and ethics in the context of technical scenarios. This round could have assessed participants' holistic skills beyond technical knowledge.
Technical Round : The final round likely involved in-depth technical questions, testing participants' deep understanding of the subject matter. This round might have covered a wide range of technical concepts and challenged participants' expertise.

The combination of these diverse rounds would have provided a comprehensive assessment of participants' technical knowledge, problem-solving abilities, teamwork, and communication skills.

It's great to hear that the audience was actively involved through question passing and direct interaction. Recognizing and rewarding the audience for correct on-the-spot answers added an interactive element to the event. Overall, this multi-round format helped keep participants and attendees engaged, making for an interactive and dynamic quiz experience.
