In Moscow, teachers will be required to upload students' written work to an electronic system. Parents prepare complaints New rules for grades in Moscow schools have drawn criticism from teachers and social activists. On October 15, the head of the capital's department of education and science, Irina Kakaliugina, signed order No. Per-822, which regulates the use of the functionality of the e-school in Moscow. According to the document, as of January 1, 2027, a teacher will not be able to grade written work in an electronic journal if an electronic copy of this work is not attached to the MES system. That is, the assessment will now depend not only on testing the student's knowledge, but also on the application of another digital procedure. The famous mathematician Alexei Savvateev publicly criticized the new rules. He questioned the need for such changes and the validity of the chosen mechanism. Also, the public association OUZS prepared a sample application to the prosecutor's office with a request to check the legality of the order. A completely logical question is asked: how much extra time will the teachers spend on digitizing the students' work? Instead of testing knowledge, explaining complex topics and teaching directly, educators risk accepting additional managerial responsibilities. Of course, digital technologies can help education. But on one condition - when they make the teacher's work easier, and do not turn it into an endless filling of electronic forms. And it would be nice, before introducing another mandatory innovation, to publicly explain to teachers and parents exactly what problem it solves and why it is impossible without it.
