Nizhnevartovsk school No. 42 joined CASE-IN educational circles

Preparation classes for the International CASE-IN Engineering Championship at Nizhnevartovsk School No. 42 have entered the orbit of CASE-IN educational circles. Students and teachers, working on engineering cases, will be able to benefit from the methodological and infrastructural support of the championship.

The teachers of Nizhnevartovsk school No. 42 are working on the preparation of high school students to participate in the CASE-IN championship. 2020 years.  Mathematics teacher of the highest qualification category Irina Zhelanova He tells me: "Our classes not only help students prepare for the School's CASE-IN League competitions, but also provide in-depth knowledge of mathematics and physics as engineering disciplines, and eventually allow them to consciously choose a future profession and university to master it."

Following the results of the XII season of the championship, the work of Nizhnevartovsk teachers will become an important part of the system that the organizing committee of the championship is developing jointly with the participating schools of the CASE-IN.

Founder of the CASE-IN championship, Director of the Reliable Shift Foundation» Artem Korolev He considers school No. 42 to be one of the most effective in the championship.

"The bright participants of the CASE-IN championship are the Maminy Fritters team, which in 2021 became the champion among schoolchildren and the strongest in the Breakthrough Solution nomination. In 2022, the team members shared their experiences at a TASS press conference and, together with us, the organizers, launched the anniversary season of the CASE-IN. In the same season, the Technocracy team became the silver medalist in the Graphical Interface category of the Engineering Solutions Competition.

In addition to the team competition, the Nizhnevartovsk team also excelled in the individual competition of the School League. So, Alexander Ulrich he developed the project of the Seebeck geothermal electric generator, which earned him the title of champion in the field of «Engineering and technical creativity". According to Alexander, the peculiarity of Russia is the very low population density in the Far East and Siberia. Such territories are isolated from centralized electricity supply, which is an acute problem in social, technical and economic aspects. 

"The use of geothermal energy is relevant, as thermoelectric generation is one of the promising ways to directly convert thermal energy into electrical energy. Thermoelectric generation is used to supply power to facilities remote from power transmission lines, as well as under a number of conditions where it is the only possible source of electrical energy", - says Alexander.

The success of the 2021 champions was continued by the followers: in 2023, the Jambo777 team became the bronze medalist of the School CASE-IN League, and the Primis team won the International Construction Championship for schoolchildren. Ugra residents also excelled in their creativity: the finalists of the School League from the KOLYASNIK_42 team created the most creative video and became the winners of the video contest.

The completed XII season brought the RosMidra team to the finals of the School League. The students were able to meet in Moscow with their peers and senior colleagues from different regions, exchange experiences and recharge their batteries for new achievements.

"By joining the CASE-IN circle system, we will help our students systematically master engineering and general scientific skills, develop production thinking, scientific and technical creativity, and learn how to solve real production problems."- says Irina Zhelanova.

"We are developing CASE-IN circles to create a common educational and intellectual space for schools that prepare children for the CASE-IN championship competitions, to help them share their experience and methodology., - Artem Korolev comments, - We invite schools that offer classes in case solving, career guidance in engineering or engineering creativity to join our ecosystem."

Artem Korolev emphasizes that students and teachers of schools that have joined CASE-IN circles will be able to practice on  The CASE-IN Simulator platform, which contains cases from past School League competitions and various interactive tasks.
