Yaroslavl schoolchildren – winners of the Autumn Cup of the CASE-IN Championship

The Yaroslavl team won the highest awards of the Autumn Cup of the VIII International engineering championship "CASE-IN" of the presidential platform "Russia – the land of opportunities".

"Schoolchildren, students and young professionals working in the fuel and energy and mineral resources sectors are taking part in the CASE-IN championship," said Roman Kolesov, Deputy Chairman of the regional government. – The formation of a system of professional competitions is provided for by the national project "Education". Another success of our students proves once again the quality of Yaroslavl education and the high professionalism of teachers.

In the final of the Autumn Cup of the eighth season, which was held in a remote format, 29 teams of schoolchildren, 39 teams of students and 13 youth teams met. The School League was working on the "Artificial Islands" case, dedicated to the search for human habitations in the future. The best solution was proposed by the Yaroslavl GYPSUM team – high school students of Yaroslavl Lyceum No. 86 Gleb Lomonosov, Alexander Shlyakhturov and Ilya Treyer and a student of Yaroslavl school No. 33 Pelageya Smelik. The mentors of the team are teachers of Lyceum No. 86 Anton Petrov and Ekaterina Petrova.

The students determined the location, plan and name of the future island, proposed technologies for supplying it with electricity, fresh water, food, and mechanisms for processing industrial and household waste. According to the participants, the Lovets artificial island system will be located in the waters of the Sea of Azov and the lower reaches of the Don River.

In the final, the high school students presented the economic indicators of their island: they calculated the operating costs, annual turnover and profits of the residents, and proposed measures to prevent and eliminate accidents and emergencies.

"The most interesting stage for our team was the search for a solution: analyzing a huge amount of information, brushing aside a mountain of interesting projects, we settled on the most promising option,– shared team captain Ilya Treyer.

The champions will be rewarded with additional USE points upon admission to 32 partner universities of the CASE–IN championship.
