Creation of a laboratory unit for oil distillation: a combination of real and computer options in the organization of scientific research work of school students

The article discusses some features of the inclusion of computer modeling in the educational process of teaching chemistry to schoolchildren, carried out through the organization of research activities. Using the example of project work on the creation of a laboratory unit for oil distillation, one of the possible areas of interaction between educational organizations at various levels is shown: a secondary school, a center for continuing education and a university. Based on the combination of activities involving real chemical utensils, equipment and reagents with computer modeling of three-dimensional objects, the main directions for continuing research and including the results of the school student's research in the educational process are outlined.
