Why negative perceptions of the educational process are linked to its positive outcomes

It's commonly believed that students learn better when they have optimal conditions and that teachers should be demanding yet incredibly kind. Without a good mentor who appeals to everyone, it's nearly impossible to grasp the material and successfully pass exams, isn't it? The teaching methods should also be appealing, and the learning process must evoke solely positive emotions. This is true. But, […]

How the fighters of Runet were forged. A bit of real history

Today, while chatting with friends, we started reminiscing about 'how it all was' in Runet— not from the words of politically biased 'Ashmanovs and other insiders,' but as it actually was. We were inspired to write an article. With nothing else to do, I drafted a sketch about what could come next © Essentially— a series of unknown stories from the early days of IT in Russia, some funny and some not so much, […]

A Man with Four "N's" or Soviet Nostradamus

Friday. I suggest we talk about one of the best Soviet science fiction writers, in my opinion. Nikolai Nikolaevich Nosov holds a special place in Russian literature. Unlike many others, he is increasingly remembered as time passes. He is one of the few authors whose books were genuinely read (voluntarily read!) and fondly remembered by the entire population of the country. Moreover, while Soviet classics are barely […] acknowledged today.
