The educational center is based on specialized workshops and laboratories, where project shifts take place and all the equipment necessary for serious work is located.
POLYGONS - a platform for studying examples, collecting data, testing, experiments, at the same time being an area for demonstrating the results of projects.
There is a conceptual and functional link between the exposition and the laboratories.
Design themes are developed and prepared in classrooms, laboratories and workshops, but tested and demonstrated at the exhibition. Here you can get acquainted with the work of colleagues - research institutes, technology companies, creative teams and other schoolchildren.
The experimental demonstration site (polygon) is constantly changing and developing. Its potential is significant, since it is infrastructurally tied not only to the participants in project shifts, but is also deployed outwardly through various types of communications. Therefore, people from all over the world can take part in the work of this platform through social and professional media.
This platform can be viewed as a hub for the exchange of data, knowledge and experience.
By combining laboratories and a testing ground with a representation function, a single inspiring creative environment is created in which children's projects are initiated, implemented and naturally built into the existing infrastructure.
It is also important here that children / youth
- produce content,
- embody it,
- are mediators for the public.
A characteristic feature of this site is that it primarily represents processes: research, technological, social, and not objects. This representation best reflects the essence of modern civilization, on the one hand, and the essence of Sirius' work, on the other.
Other described features of this site - constantly changing and updated content, self-development, involvement of all students and visitors - are also due to the work of SIRIUS project shifts and meet modern requirements for Science Centers and Museums.
This approach is innovative and creates a new type of Public Science, Entertainment and Education Center for a wide audience.
The site is developing intensively: it is detailed and filled as the project shifts are completed.
We lay the foundation for development, consisting of:
- infrastructures - equipment, podiums, experimental and research sites,
- development of partner companies and individual teams,
- successful projects of schoolchildren and youth from all over Russia.
In the future, starting from the first project shift, the site is completed with completed projects, which are evenly integrated into the established infrastructure.
Since the function of POLYGONS is not only research, but also representation, its important property is its visual appeal and the ability to accept a wide audience (including schoolchildren for laboratory classes and master classes).
The basic principle of functional zoning of any demonstration site is the interface for the visitor-user. We use the principle of an intuitive interface, which is read by the viewer at the level of perception of the visual image.
The exposition is divided into zones:
- live
- human
- hardware
- software
This division also emphasizes the interdisciplinarity of modern scientific and inventive activity, indicates the blurring of boundaries between different disciplines.
