Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competition for students of all ages
from various schools. Teams of students are challenged to select an open-ended
problem,
create a solution (independent of assistance and within strict guidelines) and
present their solution in a competition against other teams working on the same
problem and in the same division (determined by grade level). A “tournament day”
is held to judge long term projects and spontaneous events. Trophy awards are
given to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners. Ribbons and certificates are given to
ALL participants.

to learn lifelong skills such as working with others as a team, evaluating ideas, making
decisions, and creating solutions; while at the same time, developing self-confidence
and respect for others. By working in teams, participants learn teamwork, the
appreciation and understanding of others and that the group is a more powerful
thinking force than an individual.
The Odyssey of the Mind School Program is administered in New York State by the New
York State Odyssey of the Mind Association, Inc. (NYSOMA) in affiliation with Creative
Competitions, Inc.
