On June 21, 2023, as part of achieving Goal 4 "Quality education" the Department of Analytical, Colloid Chemistry and Technology of Rare Elements organized a round table "Issues of teaching: features and problems of teaching, monitoring the achievements of doctoral and master's students".

The purpose of the round table was to discuss and exchange experience, vision and plans for the development of methods and forms of teaching the disciplines of the department based on the results of the academic year.

The main message was to create an environment for specialists for an informal and effective exchange of opinions and practices

At the Round Table, the problems of organizing the educational process, types of classes and the form of their conduct, issues of evaluating the results of intermediate and final controls, requirements for the design of teaching materials, etc. were discussed in detail.

All participants of the Round Table took an active part in the discussion of the issues under consideration. The following are abstracts from individual presentations:

Associate Professor Syzdykova L.I. presented a presentation on the specifics of the educational process, its goals and objectives at the undergraduate, graduate and PhD levels. The main emphasis of the speech was that the forms, methods and types of education should correspond to the goals of the level of education. At present, despite the fact that the university seeks to position itself as a research university, the existing approach to the educational process in magistracy and doctoral studies does not allow to consider students of this level as “working hands doing science”.

Associate Professor Zlobina Ye.V. in her speech considered in detail the problems of organizing the educational process and shared her experience in using new interactive teaching methods. In particular, she noted the inexpediency of introducing 9-credit disciplines that require 4-5 hour seminars.

Associate professors Mussabekova A.A. and Badavamova G.L. noted that it is necessary to develop courses for master's and doctoral studies with an emphasis on a high level of their independence in the preparation and conduct of classes. Questions of literature support of disciplines were touched upon.

Professor Kurbatov A.P. shared his experience in conducting problem-oriented classes for all levels of training.

Associate Professors Kumargalieva S.Sh. and Kokanbaev A.K. considered the issues of providing literature for groups with instruction in the Kazakh language.

Associate Professor Adilbekova A.O. made detailed comments and recommendations on the new form of the syllabus.
