The Ukrainian national competition of grant projects aimed at the development of IT education has ended. 6 initiatives of teachers and students of Ukrainian universities received grants for the full implementation of projects. The total fund was $20,000 *.
The finalists were 2 projects by the teams from Lviv Polytechnic National University: a chatbot (hint) in the disciplines “Machine Learning” and “Deep Learning” and the launch of an online course on the principles of sensors. Among the winners are also projects to create a new methodology of educational process based on peer-to-peer technology from the team of NTU “Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute”, development of a unique platform at the junction of medicine and IT from the team of VNTU from Vinnytsia, updating the course “Operating Systems” from ONPU Odessa and the online course “Schematics” for the Coursera platform from KPI named after Igor Sikorsky.
The competition was organized by GlobalLogic as part of GlobalLogic Education. 105 teams from 42 schools and 16 cities of Ukraine have submitted their projects. About 80% of the initiatives covered the technical direction of training. Almost half of all projects were ideas for creating online courses and digitizing existing curricula. At the same time, almost every team had not only teachers but also students. This indicates the interest of young people in the development of Ukrainian education.
