The generation that destroyed the future of children 30 years ago must repay them. With this thought, Goran Tepavac equipped an electrical workshop for interested students in Maglaj after he returned from the United States (U.S.) four years ago.
Goran opened the door of his home to excellent students in Maglaj.
“I believe that my generation has largely destroyed the future of these children. For this reason, I created this home workshop where children have the opportunity to gain new knowledge in the field of electrical engineering.
Frequency drives are today’s devices that are used to start asynchronous motors. Practically, they have replaced all forms of previous technology. Literally, this is a mini factory. It runsand has a warning, count down the desired value, ” explainedGoran Tepavac.
“After 500 pulses, it will spend half a meter, and it will stop automatically, “ said Ismail Burejic, a student at the electrical engineering school in Maglaj.
Studying on weekends is not a problem for students. Practical examples are more interesting to them than regular classes.
“Here we can learn a lot of things that we don’t even mention in school, such as frequency driving, relays, electromagnets and so on. I think it’s important to learn about these things, because you will definitely use them in your life, and I won’t learn them in school,” said Amin Ibrakovic, a student at the electrical engineering school in Maglaj.
“Views opened up for me in the field of industry in electrical engineering and electronics. I have noticed a great increase in my knowledge and now I can somehow better orient myself in terms of my direction in electrical engineering and electronics, “said Ismail Burejic, a student at the electrical engineering school in Maglaj.
Outdated curricula and lack of equipment in schools make the experience in Goran’s workshop even more precious.
”He brought here all the most modern things that can be found on the market right now. Since he returned from the U.S., andthere he had jobs related to electronics, automation in industry, and considering that there is a great need for such staff here, we came up with an idea to improve it, to connect it,” said Dino Cerimagic, professor of the electrical engineering subject group.
“The U.S. gave me everything, basically, and I’m grateful for that. But I still belong to this society and that’s why my final decision is to return here,” pointed out Goran Tepavac.
The high school students still don’t know which path will they take. Now the most important thing for them is to acquire new knowledge to continue their education, Slobodna Evropa reports.
