“Data is the new oil”, said mathematician Clive Humby. That means that data is very valuable today. However, fake oil is easy to recognize, but what about fake data?

We are nowadays surrounded by an ocean of data that we can access via the Internet. These data can help us be up-to-date, but they are also valuable in one’s education, personal and professional activity.

However, some of these data are only partially accurate, while others are completely fake.

That is why data analysis, which helps us to access various data, separating legitimate from the fake, useful from the useless, and even harmful is a modern skill everyone should master.

In the fifth Brainfinity challenge, you will have the opportunity to exercise two skills crucial for each individual nowadays, and in high demand among companies from different fields. They are data analysis and data intuition.

Learn how to analyze data validity on the Brainfinity platform.

1. Step 1 is to form a four-member team (if you still haven’t got one), think up of an original name for it, and design an eye-catching logo. More details on the application process can be found HERE.

2. Step 2 is to register your team. You register by filling out this online application form.

3. Step 3 is logging into the platform, where the new challenge awaits from December 25. If you already have a team, you just need to log in.

4. Step 4 is downloading the challenge from the platform, where you will find detailed instructions on how to solve it. 

And that’s it. The game is on!

In addition to careful data analysis, the fifth Brainfinity challenge will require you to carefully observe a particular type of media content and its structural elements, so you would be able to properly analyze it. Every element, including even the smallest detail, can be crucial for successfully solving this challenge.

Therefore, dear contestants, warm up your analytical processor and sharpen your vision!
