3D office presented in Azerbaijani school first time
[Philip Lelyveld comment: 3D in the classroom by government decree!]
Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The Baku Education Department has presented today the first-in-Azerbaijan 3D office of the natural sciences.
Department’s spokesperson Zamina Asadova says that the 3D office was created at secondary school #18 named after Mikail Mushfig.
"Under the presidential order, school #18 was completely renovated and put into operation by the beginning of the school year – 15 September. The 3D office opened today in the school is designed for lesson on physics, chemistry, geography and biology for pupils of classes VI-IX. The office is equipped with an interactive whiteboard, and all the lessons are accompanied by an e-version of the objects in 3D format. We believe that creation of such an office stimulates pupils’ interest in natural sciences, to the staff of which Azerbaijan observes an increased demand for the last few years,” she emphasized.
According to Asadova, such an office functions only in this school, and in the near future creation of such office is not expected in other schools.
"In the future, perhaps in case of success of this project such 3D offices will be set up also in other schools of Baku," she said.
