Students Achieve Outstanding Results in Interdisciplinary Project

Second-year students recently achieved notable success through an interdisciplinary project that combined Geography and Computer Science. The project focused on researching the geographical characteristics of Asian regions, providing students with the opportunity to utilize their research, programming, and data visualization skills. The teachers who implemented this interdisciplinary project were geography teacher, Senada Nikolić, and computer science and informatics teacher, Nataša Obrenović-Filipović.

How Students Use Python to Explore Asia

Throughout the project, students engaged in deep research on various aspects of Asia, using diverse data sources and tools. They analyzed key socio-geographical characteristics such as the size of countries, population, natural increase, and GDP per capita, providing profound insights into the complexity of the regions.

After collecting data, students used their programming skills, particularly the Python programming language, to create visually appealing presentations that clearly depicted the gathered information. This process not only led to the creation of impressive works but also allowed students to gain a deeper understanding of geographical concepts and digital presentation skills.

The results of the project are outstanding, highlighting the creativity, engagement, and progress of students in developing new skills. Through the integration of knowledge from different disciplines, students demonstrated the ability to combine different skill sets to solve real-world problems. This project not only enriched their academic experience but also encouraged their ability to think interdisciplinary and creatively.

I am extremely pleased and proud to be the parent of a Savremena student. During my first encounter with the school management, when I asked about my child’s potential enrolment, I saw how much love, enthusiasm and professionalism you put in your work. I was impressed by your approach, ideas and methods. I couldn’t believe something like this existed in our country! It doesn’t take long to realise that this is a school you would recommend to everyone. Creativity, modern technology, top-quality education, and most of all, the humaneness that can be seen throughout the school, make it truly different and worthy of its name – Savremena Gimnazija. With such an approach, the success of this school and, consequently, our children’s success, is unavoidable. Congratulations! Jelena Đorđević, Andrija’s mum
Contemporary in any sense of the word, our school offers functional knowledge and quality preparation for tertiary education in Serbia and abroad. Implementing modern and creative teaching in the classroom, where the teachers’ pedagogy and students’ performance are aligned with the highest academic standards for the high-school finals, our school develops linguistic, mathematical, scientific, artistic, cultural, technical and ICT competence, which is a prerequisite for further education and professional development. Teaching is supported by the interactive whiteboards and educational software, whereas practice exercises research and critical thinking.
