The year 2020 ended with a brilliant victory in the international engineering championship "CASE-IN" for schoolchildren and teachers from the rural hinterland of the Volgograd region. According to the news agency "Height 102", young designers of the sixth grade of the Serpomolotsky secondary school  Inna Zhulidova, Maria Yukina, Artur Lepeshkin, Alyona Kharitonova and their mentor, physics teacher Viktor Nikolaev, impressed the jury with the design project of a power line support.
"When we walk through the streets, we see a lot of wires and poles," the championship winners say. - They spoil the view and don't fit well into the landscape. So our teacher and I came up with a design model of a power pole that will decorate the streets and perfectly fit into the landscape, especially in large cities.".
 
According to the guys, following the results of the qualifying round, the team was invited to participate in the final, which took place in December 2020, and this was already a victory. But when Anton Inyutsyn, Deputy Minister of Energy of Russia, declared them the winners, they experienced great joy, delight and pride. For myself, my mentor, and my favorite school. First place! And the competition was serious: about 10 thousand participants.  
Viktor Nikolaev, a physics teacher, shared how they studied literature on a chosen topic with the children, analyzed and synthesized information, interviewed villagers, and developed criteria for creating a designer power line.  As the 3D models were created, the height of the support and the location of the wires from the ground, the depth of the excavation, the distance between the insulators, and so on, were calculated.  
"For several years, our educational institution has been working on the development of design and research activities and scientific and technical creativity. We are grateful to the school's management for their great support.- says the physics teacher of the Serpomolotsky secondary school Victor Nikolaev. - The process itself was not easy, but fascinating and informative.  But it's always a joy to feel that everything has worked out for you. The championship has shown that many things are possible if desired. The main thing is to just start doing it.  That's our motto. And when success comes, it inspires new achievements. So in the new year, 2021, we have a lot of opportunities for creativity."- the teacher confessed . 
It remains to add that the winners received not only valuable prizes and the opportunity to participate in specialized educational shifts and forums, but also special and preferential conditions for admission to Russian universities.
