Interactive Bebras

PARENT / GUARDIAN CONSENT – PLEASE READ

Your child is invited to take part in Interactive Bebras, a set of puzzle activities being used for a university thesis study. The research looks at how young learners approach problem‑solving and how their step‑by‑step thinking can be captured and valued alongside their final answer.

In this activity, the child works through 12 short interactive puzzles. The platform records their moves, clicks, and decisions, and final result, so the process can be studied later.

Taking part is entirely voluntary. The child may stop at any time, for any reason, with no consequences. The tasks are age‑appropriate logic and thinking puzzles—no sensitive, medical, or personal topics are included.

We never collect the child’s full name, contact details, school ID, photos, or any other identifying information. Only a first name or nickname is stored, and it is used together with a classroom username that keeps all responses anonymous.

The recorded interactions are seen only by the research team, stored securely, and reported only as group statistics or anonymized examples in academic work.

By allowing your child to proceed, you confirm that you have read and understood the information above and consent to their participation in the study.
