Tactile Periodic table of chemical elements

Information about project It is known that people with disabilities face various social problems, especially in the field of education. But every person on our planet can do more and turn limited possibilities into limitless ones with the help of innovative and information technologies. In this project, students explore a social issue regarding teaching aids for visually impaired people. They will study and apply the Braille font for a tactile description of the periodic system of chemical elements of D.I. Mendeleev for people with visual impairment. In addition, 3D modeling (using the SketchUp program) and 3D printing will be used to make tactile educational material.

Smart irrigation system

Project Information In this project, students learn to design a system that optimizes the use of water for growing plants. Students create a soil moisture control system to control an irrigation pump. This “smart” irrigation system sets itself the task of finding a solution to one of the world’s most important problems – how to use water most efficiently through the design and creation of a working system that irrigates crops and saves water as much as possible. Students are also introduced to the use of solar panels in the household.

The mathematics of saving water

Project Information This project covers the basic principles that are necessary to save water. In the first part of the project, students make calculations on the amount of water used daily and ways to save water. Students are also introduced to the concept of rainwater harvesting, the purpose of which is to store stormwater for agricultural or domestic use. In the second part of the project, students build a system for collecting and using rainwater for watering plants.

Smart road

Project Information The water absorption road project demonstrates the absorption of water during rain and flooding. In this project, students will learn how to design a system that optimizes the use of water generated during rainfall. This smart road project aims to find a solution to the problem of road flooding during rains by designing a system that collects water for subsequent use for domestic purposes.
