‘This year, the student scientific conference is dedicated to the Year of Teachers and Mentors. It was gratifying to see the performances of students who, in their reports, touched upon the issues of pedagogy and education, drawing attention to such important topics as bullying in the adolescent environment, the identification of dyslexia in school and preschool children, patriotic education in schools. The students presented a large number of interesting studies that have every chance of becoming successful projects in the future,’ she said.
