The second nomination - "Fiction Story".
It seems that it is very unusual and difficult for many to write a story. Therefore, some of the participants did not actually write stories, but essays. Given the not too large number of works in this category, we decided to accept essays as well. The main thing is to match the topic. Stories and essays will be published on the site.
The results are as follows..
Age Category under 13 years old.
1 place:
Anastasia Syrykh, 10 years old, Russia, Ekaterinburg. Essay "My image of the future." Well, just an ideal future in which you want to live!
2nd place:
Bradley James Boltz II, 12 years old, USA, Texas, San Antonio. Essay "My dream, a secure future." A person faces many dangers. This must be corrected!
3rd place:
Molly Bell, 13, Australia, Brisbane. "A note to yourself." A person gets the opportunity to send a note to himself in the past. He can write only 6 words ...
Age Category over 14 years old.
1 place:
Valeria Makusheva, 17 years old, Russia, Voronezh. "Futurum Lisa". A little anti-utopian story about art in the future.
2nd place:
Darya Tsarkova, 14 years old, Russia, Kaluga. "One day". A wicked world ... we do not want to live in such a future! But it is written convincingly.
3rd place:
Alexandra Plotnikova, 17 years old, Russia, Yekaterinburg. Story "Inspiration".
Nur Irdina Jailani, 16, Malaysia, Beaufort. "Tunnel of Future".
The third nomination - "Futurological project".
Unfortunately, very few works have been sent in this nomination. And even less is allowed for participation. On the one hand, this is understandable, developing a good project is not an easy task. On the other hand, the approach of some participants is very disappointing. Not everyone at all paid attention to the topic of the contest and even to the word "Futurological". There are good children's research works, but there is not a word about the future. There are works where the author simply copied a lot of text from different sites without even indicating sources. And in most works, where it is still mentioned about the future - this is not the main theme at all. Only small mentions in passing. The idea of the competition was precisely to present your proposals for the future - how to make it better, what to invent, what projects to implement.
But nonetheless...
1 place:
Avijit Raj Shukla, 12 years old, India, Biskohar. "Save Earth Mission." This is the only project whose author really thinks about the future and has something to offer, quite seriously. The project is to combat the disappearance of forests in India through a special program of planting five specific trees in each village (which is plentiful in India). I think that 5 trees per village will not be enough... But this is only the starting project of the future nature protection organization, which the author wants to establish in India.
2nd place:
Adil Tulebaev, 10 years old, Kazakhstan, Pavlodar. Project "The machine of the future from aluminum cans". In principle, this is a research about aluminum and only a little about the future. But we can not fail to note the thoroughness and scope of the work done: there is reference information, and an excursion to the plant, and surveys of classmates, and experiments, and self-made designs ... Many photographs.
3rd place:
Olesya Ilyina, 16, Russia, Troyanovo village, Tver Region. Project "Synthesizer of animal speech". The project is fantastic, but quite convincing.
