International quiz
The Foreign Languages Department of the Institute of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Institute of International Education have organized a joint thematic quiz ‘Russia - Tanzania’ within the framework of the English language lovers club ‘Lingua’ in Tula State University on the 2nd of December
The idea inspirer and organiser of this kind international project was a team of teachers under the guidance of the acting Head of the Department, Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences, Associate Professor Galina Vladimirovna Semyonova.
- The aim of the quiz is to develop intercultural communication skills among Russian and foreign students, to maintain a friendly climate in the multinational student community, to foster a tolerant attitude to the diversity of cultures of the world's peoples’, she emphasised.
Seven teams took part in the quiz. Each team consisted of two Tanzanians and four Russian students. The players represented all the institutes of our university.
The tasks on country studies were prepared by the creative team of the Foreign Languages Department. They included not only questions about Russia and Tanzania, but also rebuses.
In its format, the fascinating quiz resembled the well-known intellectual game ‘What? Where? When?’. The official language was English.
There was an atmosphere of friendship and mutual understanding in the student space, which gave a special spirit to this wonderful event. It was interesting to observe how everyone was involved in finding the right answers, how they communicated and supported each other.
Undoubtedly, each team strived to win and made every effort to do so.
But as you know, there are three steps on the pedestal. And they were occupied by those who showed the best results.
The first place was won by the team ‘Brainy Bunch’ (Maria Stolyarova, Elizaveta Khalyapina, Kato Flora Godfrey, Artem Moroz, Gleb Guyvan and Mpazi Thadeus Zuberi).
The second position went to the team ‘Quizmasters United’ (Ahmed Ahmed Abubakar, Ivan Gladkov, Anastasia Gracheva, Abdulwakil Abdulwakil Idrissa, Sergey Demidov and Yegor Medvedev).
The bronze was taken by the team ‘Trivia Titans’ (Daniil Dyachkin, Hirji Zaim Mehboob, Sofiya Strenina, Yaroslav Kanciyal, Svetlana Dorofeeva and Dattani Elizabeth Peter).
In general, all the participants were very good! And the winner, of course, was friendship!
In such a close-knit multinational team as Tula State University, it can not be any other way!
