Kursk schoolchildren learn about fellow countrymen whose discoveries made the region famous

Pupils of Kursk schools get acquainted with outstanding fellow countrymen - scientists and inventors, whose discoveries have received world recognition. To do this, a traveling exhibition "Kursk Dreamers" travels around the city, which will visit 15 educational institutions.

The exhibition gathered the stories of five people. Vasily Petrov discovered the electric arc, Nikolai Korotkov developed a method for measuring blood pressure, Ilya Ivanov made a great contribution to animal husbandry, Anatoly Ufimtsev was engaged in wind energy, and Vladimir Shukhov came up with a number of engineering designs and inventions.

The exhibition has already been held in schools No. 15, 30, 31 and 35. After getting acquainted with the exhibition, the children pass a small test to consolidate their knowledge. In the future, the organizers want to hold an intellectual game between the teams of schools.

The project “In the footsteps of the Kursk Dreamers” is implemented by ANO “Dynamics Youth Support Center” with the assistance of a grant from the Governor of the Kursk region and the Center for Civil and Social Initiatives of the city of Kursk.
