International Kangaroo

Math Competition
Kangaroo Math Competition History:
Kangaroo Mathematics Competition is an international competition, in which 99
countries all over the world participate. This competition interested in focusing on the
logical constructions of mathematics and building applied skills rather than knowing
mathematical formulas and equations. This competition aims to help the transition from
theories to practice.
The competition was introduced in 1980 in Australia; it succeeded tremendously as
a national competition around Australia, and then it moved to France in 1991, and
registered in its first version nearly 120 thousand students, in according to this success, 21
countries participated in the competition that year. Accordingly, it was proposed to
establish Kangaroo Without Borders. In 1995, the competition was officially registered in
Paris, the Council was elected and the basic policies were legally approved. The number
of countries that joined the competition increased to include countries in Asia, Africa, and
South America. Now the contest is over 6 million Student participate annually all over the
world.
Kangaroo International Mathematics Competition differs from other competitions
in that it focuses on developing issues that require the development of creativity skills,
critical analysis and problem solving and getting students to deal with mathematical issues
from different aspects , thus developing students' positive attitude in life.
In 2021, the Education Experts Center for Training and Languages
(EECTL) stepped forward and took the responsibility to be the country
representative for this competition and opened the door to our students in Jordan to
take apart and experience this amazing journey.
