Young Ambassadors of the Children's Ombudsman: Bringing the CRC and Article 19 to French School Children

The present contribution sums up the main activities related to celebrations of the IYCr in Novosibirsk (Russia). I give a general overview of crystallographic research and education in Novosibirsk at the Russian Academy of Sciences and at the Novosibirsk State University, to explain which basis we have for organizing various activities for children and for general public. I shall, in particular, describe the program of continuous crystallographic education starting from nursery to the university, including crystal growth courses and competitions, research projects involving children, festivals, public lectures, various competitions and exhibitions. A special attention will be paid to the activity of school-children from the French school, who have translated all the posters prepared by J.-L. Hodeau from French into Russian. The group has visited Grenoble and presented their work there, and participated also in the IYCr Opening Ceremony. Other activities include International Workshops and Conferences for students and young scientists, as well as an OpenLab in cooperation with STOE (Darmstadt).

Hearing Problems

The teachers of 2231 elementary school children were asked to identify those with known or suspected hearing problems. Following screening, the data were compared. Teachers identified 5% of the children as hearing-impaired, while screening identified only 3%. There was agreement between the two procedures on 1%. Subsequent to the teacher interviews, rescreening and tympanometry were conducted. These procedures indicated that teacher screening and tympanometry were in agreement on 2% of the total sample or 50% of the hearing-loss group. It was concluded that teachers could supplement audiometry, particularly when otoscopy and typanometry are not available.
