The Global Round consists of four main events: the Scholar’s Challenge, Collaborative Writing, and the Scholar’s Bowl. The academic activities each require knowledge of a curriculum made at the start of each season of the Regional Round and is divided into a section about history, social studies, art and music, literature and media, science and technology.
