The media partner of the event was the local media team, which ensured real-time broadcasting of the dictation through its platforms. The participants wrote an adapted excerpt from the essay “The Writer and Language” by Prof. Konstantin Galabov, dictated by Bulgarian language and literature methodologist Donka Nikolova, a seconded teacher from the Bulgarian Ministry of Education.

After the dictation, the participants sent their work to a specially created e-mail. In the presence of journalists and the management of the education directorate, the letters were opened, printed and coded. A total of 211 dictations were accepted for verification. The evaluation took place in the building of the Theoretical Lyceum “Ivan Vazov” where a 13-member committee of teachers of Bulgarian language and literature from various educational institutions in the area gathered. The work of the committee was organized according to previously announced criteria.

All participants will receive certificates of participation from the education management. The first place winners in the two categories will be included in the trip to the city of Gabrovo organized by the Taraclia District Council from May 23 to 26.
