Four thousand Moscow schoolchildren wrote a demonstration exam at the Moscow Palace of Pioneers. More than 500 children became winners and prize winners. They will receive additional points when entering leading universities. This was reported by the press service of the Moscow Palace of Pioneers. Department of Education and Science.
“This year, more than 500 children became winners and prize winners of the demonstration exam, 40 of whom received the maximum score. Such results indicate that young Muscovites are actively mastering subjects outside the school curriculum. These subjects help them choose their future professional trajectory, immerse themselves in an environment of like-minded people, and acquire the necessary knowledge and skills,” the department’s press service reported.
This year, the exam was conducted in 14 competencies, such as programming, application development, computer vision, web design, robotics, drone operation, prototyping, digital illustration, photography, media technology and video production.
The exam traditionally took place in two stages. The qualifying stage was remote. Participants completed practice-oriented tasks on the educational platform Moodle. For example, in the prototyping exam, it was necessary to make 3D models of parts based on drawings and prepare a control program for printing.
The best schoolchildren were invited to the final stage, which took place at the Moscow Palace of Pioneers and federal universities. The results were assessed by independent experts and observers — representatives of Moscow universities, including Lomonosov Moscow State University and Russian State University for the Humanities, as well as employers.
“I took the robotics exam. Initially, it was my hobby, but now I want it to grow into a professional occupation. I would like to develop in the field of delivery robots. They can already be seen in the center of Moscow, but so far they cannot, say, fly or plan a route. One of the creative tasks in the exam was to present a prototype of such a robot. And this is exactly the development that I have always thought about. Therefore, for my work I received a high mark and additional points that will help me when entering the Moscow State Technical University named after N.E. Bauman,” shared Mikhail Kozychev, a student of the robotics club of the Moscow Palace of Pioneers, who scored 100 points.
During the exam, the capital’s schoolchildren developed robotic systems, solved robotics problems, created electronic models and were engaged in prototyping. In addition, they demonstrated drone piloting skills in a simulator and created interactive applications using computer vision algorithms. For example, the participants developed an image processing program with a gesture recognition function in the Python programming language, completing a computer vision task.
Artem Torlanov, a student at the Moscow Palace of Pioneers’ programming club, said that he had been preparing for this exam for a very long time. He proved to himself that he had mastered programming languages well, for which he received a high score from teachers at two leading Moscow universities, which he wanted to enroll in.
The exam participants also showed their skills in design. They worked on layouts and multimedia projects, designed and laid out web pages, and developed the design of the device body based on the drawings of its main elements. For example, during the industrial design exam, the students developed a project for the body of an outdoor charging station for electric vehicles.
In addition, the schoolchildren demonstrated their skills in photography and processing of footage, and creating videos. During the competition, the participants took photos of portraits in the interior, and also shot and edited a film on the topic of “Architecture and History of the Moscow Palace of Pioneers on Vorobyovy Gory.”
Positive results of students in the demonstration exam are taken into account as an individual achievement by 19 leading Moscow universities. Among them are the National Research University “Moscow Power Engineering Institute”, the National Research University “Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology”, the National Research Nuclear University “Moscow Engineering Physics Institute”, the National Research Technological University “Moscow Institute of Steel and Alloys”, the National Research Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, the Russian National Research Medical University named after N.I. Pirogov, the Russian State University named after A.N. Kosygin, the Russian Biotechnology University, the Moscow Institute of Radio Engineering, Electronics and Automation – Russian Technological University, the Moscow State Technical University named after N.E. Bauman, the Moscow Polytechnic University, the Moscow State Technological University “Stankin”, the Moscow Automobile and Road State Technical University and the Moscow Aviation Institute (National Research University).
The demonstration exam has been held since 2017 in additional education disciplines. During this time, more than 20 thousand Moscow schoolchildren have taken part in it. More than three thousand of them received benefits when entering the leading universities of the capital.
Conducting intellectual events for schoolchildren helps develop children’s talents and develop skills that will be useful to them in their future profession, and is consistent with the objectives of the “Professionalism” and “All the Best for Children” projects of the national project “Youth and Children”.
