The Informatik-Biber is Germany’s largest student competition in the field of computer science. Students in grades 3 through 13 are eligible to participate. Since 2007, the Informatik-Biber has been promoting digital thinking in Germany through real-world, everyday tasks. In the process, participants discover the fascination and relevance of computer science methods. At the Informatik-Biber, even young students encounter the versatility of computer science in a playful and natural way. The Informatik-Biber has been in existence since 2006. In the most recent competition, 401,737 students participated. Students in 7th grade and above complete 15 tasks in 40 minutes. The Informatik-Biber takes place once a year in November and lasts for two school weeks. Our illustration shows a sample task from the competition.
