Technopark and Moscow City Duma are implementing a unique educational project
for teaching high school students 3D modeling and animation.
The experiment was launched on the initiative of the Chairman of the Moscow City Duma Alexey Shaposhnikov. The pilot project covered schoolchildren of the Southern and Northern Medvedkovo, Sviblovo. Pupils of mathematical, engineering, physical classes, as well as schoolchildren interested in cinema and animation participate in free classes. During the first master classes they were introduced to 3D modeling and computer animation using unique software.
Alexey Shaposhnikov, chairman of the Moscow City Duma, noted that according to the results of the pilot project, he intends to involve other areas of the North-Eastern Administrative District.
Together with the management of Technopark Kalibr, we chose an experimental course for schoolchildren from three districts located in the North-Eastern administrative district of Moscow. The guys are learning the basics of 3D modeling and virtual reality technology. Today we can observe the results of their work. Here come students of engineering, physical and mathematical classes, as well as schoolchildren, who are interested in animation and cinematography. As part of this educational project, they receive practical skills that can later be used for admission to higher education institutions. Of course, such knowledge will be useful at various Olympiads and hackathons or in preparation for the WorldSkills championships.
Now we are looking at what the results will be, as if we will not dwell only on three districts. We are going to involve other areas of the northeast administrative district. If we talk about other districts, it will be interaction with other technology parks, because some of the children may be attracted to other areas of research " - the head of the Moscow City Duma noted.
За время проведения пилотного проекта, детский технопарк "Калибр", принял уже у себя более 300 учеников школ Северо-Восточного административного округа.
Как считает г-н Шапошников, на сегодня сформирована достаточная законодательная база, связанная с функционированием в Москве технопарков, в том числе детских. Однако он не исключает, что потребуется разработка ряда подзаконных актов. При этом будет учтено формирование единого инновационного кластера, создание которого на территории Москвы утвердил президент России Владимир Путин в конце ноября 2018 года.
В кластер войдут технопарки, образовательные учреждения, научно-исследовательские институты, высокотехнологичные предприятия, ИТ-компании для кооперации исследователей, разработчиков и производителей, а также сокращения издержек и повышения конкурентоспособности московской продукции и услуг.
