The Spheres educational platform has been launched at the IACH

The Spherum educational platform has been launched at the IACH. It has been developed and is being developed in the interests of the Russian education system and taking into account the needs of teachers, students and their parents. This was announced on March 11 by Rustam Khaibullov, Vice President for Strategic Projects at VK.

"This is a safe educational space for learning and communication, it contains all the key services for teaching students and for comfortable work and communication between teachers.The Aquarium at the MAX has diaries and magazines, FGIS "My School" and "Gosuslugi My School", an interactive whiteboard for joint study of materials, "Help to school", "File collection", awards and a "Break" with educational quizzes and quizzes. A showcase of educational channels with useful and enlightening content has been created," he said.

According to Khaibullov, special emphasis is placed on security — in a closed loop in the Sphere, all users are verified, and for children, the "Safe Mode" is enabled by default, which restricts contacts to the phone book and the school directory.

"I started working at Spherum from the moment the service was launched in 2021. The workshop always took into account the wishes of the teachers, which would be useful for us. From the very beginning, we participate in testing the functionality, communicate with developers, and our ideas are regularly taken into account," said Maria Sonina, a social studies teacher at Gymnasium No. 23 in Chelyabinsk.

"I started working in Spherum from the moment the service was launched. Over the years, many useful functions have been launched in the Aquarium. Now there is a Workshop at the University of Applied Sciences, where, for example, I regularly use an interactive whiteboard, it helps to visually study materials with students. It is very fast and convenient to collect homework in one place using the File Collection service. My parents started sending help through the Help to School instead of bringing it to me in paper form. And of course, online meetings are popular with busy parents," said Tatiana Zhukova, a primary school teacher and methodologist at MBOU Secondary School 13 in Obninsk.
