Abstract

The "Scientific Summer-2021 Online" Experiment Network is an educational and research project based on the integration of biology, physics, geography, ecology, and informatics. It has a practice-oriented focus and involves student's independent research activities under the guidance of scientific consultants (mentors) and schoolteachers. Scientific supervision was conducted by leading Russian scientists in botany, geology, ecology, and bioinformatics. The Experiment Network has facilitated the development of metasubject competencies through the organization of localized independent research. It resulted in the inception of a new format research community with diverse and broad participation of school students-researchers. Students had received training in field research methods and data processing. A digital educational environment was developed based on network interaction over various telecommunication means, which as a collateral benefit it had greatly increased the digital literacy (skills and competencies) level of the project participants. The research was carried out in the following areas: geobotanical mapping; entomology; ornithology; medicinal plants: floristic and population studies; palaeontology; permafrost science; research of forest ecosystems; plant phenology.

Keywords: experiment network, digital research community, metasubject competencies
