Samara University has developed a special course on space programming for schoolchildren. Classes will be held in the university’s laboratories twice a week, with each session lasting 1.5 hours.
University experts have created an educational program called “Programming and Rockets,” designed for students in grades 7-11. The program includes the creation of mini-rockets using electronic components. Over two months, students will work in teams under the guidance of mentors to design, build, and launch working rocket models into the sky.
Any 12-year-old schoolchild in Samara can enroll in this course. The instructors will be senior students and graduate students. To conduct classes, the university has developed the RaCEboard electronic constructor, which facilitates the assembly of various components of rocket onboard equipment and other devices.
