24 June 2014, Tuesday
The results of Year of Mathematics in Tatarstan were summed up at Kazan’s Korston centre on Wednesday. Tatarstan Education and Science Minister Engel Fattakhov took part in the ceremony.
Opening the meeting, chief of Tatarstan education greeted those present on the end of the school year. “Mathematics is indeed the queen of all sciences. Of course, solving all tasks in one year is impossible, which is why the work in this direction will be continued,” Engel Fattakhov stressed.
The region’s educational system has a strong infrastructure. The main goal is to work with the teachers, particularly, to train teaching staff, including teachers of exact subjects, to improve their skills and to retrain them.
Engel Fattakhov went on to highlight the results of unified state exam (EGE). Last year, Tatarstan’s average grade at EGE in mathematics was 57, this year it is 48. Four graduates in Tatarstan scored 100 points in mathematics. Complaints from parents were fewer this year, the speaker stressed.
He thanked school principals and singled out the ones in which graduates displayed high mathematics scores.
Two students from Tatarstan will take part in an international mathematics competition in South Africa in July as members of Russian national team, he reported.
After the minister’s welcoming remarks, teachers who trained the students scoring 100 points at the 2014 mathematics exam were awarded the For Merits in Education lapel pin.
Winners of a Tatarstan-wide teaching method development competition were awarded ten-thousand-rouble certificates.
In the conclusion of the ceremony, parents, elementary school teachers and junior high school mathematics teachers who won the final stage of a 2014 national mathematics competition were celebrated.
