Проект “Балтийский маяк: искусственный интеллект, искусство и действия в рамках Зелёного курса”
Проект Baltijas bāka (B-BAAG) — это современная образовательная инициатива, объединяющая науку, технологии, искусство и заботу об окружающей среде. Его цель — развивать у школьников экологическую грамотность, осознанное отношение к природе и активную гражданскую позицию, обращая особое внимание на регион Балтийского моря.

Вдохновлённый идеями Европейского зелёного курса и Климатического пакта, проект помогает учащимся не только получить знания о глобальных экологических проблемах, но и научиться действовать. В центре внимания — вопросы загрязнения моря, сохранения биологического разнообразия и изменений климата.

Школьники становятся настоящими исследователями: собирают экологические данные с помощью сенсорных технологий, используют искусственный интеллект для анализа и классификации морского мусора, а найденным материалам дают вторую жизнь — создавая из них арт-объекты и творческие проекты.

«Балтийский маяк» помогает детям понять, что наука и искусство могут вместе менять мир — начиная с маленьких, но реальных шагов.
Main activities of the project

Field Research and Water Analysis

Students explored the Baltic Sea through field visits and hands-on scientific investigation, experiencing environmental research in a real-world setting. Observing the coastline and collecting samples helped them better understand how ecosystems function and how pollution can be identified. Back at school, they analysed the collected data, turning their observations into meaningful scientific conclusions.


Sub-activities:

  • Coastal excursions and ecosystem observation
  • Water sample collection
  • Laboratory analysis (pH, nitrates, microorganisms)

Clean-up and Waste Sorting

Through coastal clean-up activities, students directly engaged with environmental issues and saw the real impact of pollution. Collecting and sorting waste allowed them to recognise common types of litter and reflect on how human behaviour contributes to environmental problems.

Sub-activities:
  • Coastal clean-up activities
  • Waste collection and categorisation
  • Discussion of pollution sources and impacts

AI in Waste Analysis

Students explored how artificial intelligence can support environmental protection by applying simple AI tools to analyse collected waste. This activity helped them understand how technology can be used to identify patterns and support solutions to real-world problems.


Sub-activities:

  • Photographing collected waste
  • Using simple AI tools to classify litter
  • Comparing AI results with human observations

Circular Economy Workshop “From Waste to Value.”

In this activity, students learned how waste can be transformed into valuable resources. By reusing collected materials, they created artistic and functional objects, discovering how creativity and sustainability can work together. The exhibition of their work reinforced the idea that waste can have a second life.

Sub-activities:
  • Waste sorting and material selection
  • Creation of artistic and functional objects
  • Exhibition of upcycled products

Data Interpretation and Creative Expression

Students analysed environmental data and presented their findings in visual and creative forms. By combining scientific thinking with artistic expression, they developed a deeper understanding of environmental issues and communicated their ideas in engaging ways.


Sub-activities:

  • Creating graphs and analysing collected data
  • Designing posters and logos
  • Storytelling activity: “What would the sea say if it could speak?”

Final Exhibition and Presentation

The project concluded with a public exhibition, where students shared their results, creative work, and reflections with the school community and parents. This final stage gave them the opportunity to present their achievements and inspire others to think about environmental responsibility.

Sub-activities:
  • Preparation of presentations and displays
  • Public exhibition for school and parents
  • Reflection and discussion of project outcomes
