AUGUST CONFERENCE HELD AT ABAI UNIVERSITY

Today, Abai University hosted its traditional August Conference on the topic: “The Norms and Values of the New Constitution: Human Capital Development as the Strategic Foundation of the Education System.” The event was attended by the university leadership, faculty members, and research scholars.

The traditional August Conference provided a broad platform for discussing key areas of development of the modern education system, the status of teachers, the effective use of modern technologies in the educational process, and issues related to ensuring the safety of students. The choice of the topic “The Norms and Values of the New Constitution: Human Capital Development as the Strategic Foundation of the Education System” was particularly relevant to the current educational agenda. In his address at the national August Conference held the previous day in Astana, President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev also addressed these issues in detail.

To effectively use artificial intelligence in developing human capital, teaching professionals must be prepared to meet new requirements. In this regard, the participants discussed the areas of work that the country’s leading pedagogical university intends to pursue. The meeting focused on these key questions and explored various aspects of preparing future teachers for the changing demands of the education system.

Today, artificial intelligence has become an effective tool that facilitates the work of students and teachers. At the same time, its use raises a number of important issues, including verifying the accuracy of information, maintaining academic integrity, and using technology responsibly. Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs Banu Narbekova spoke about the current changes and new requirements in the education system.

The August Conference provided teachers with an opportunity to exchange experience, learn about new trends in education, and discuss the key objectives for the upcoming academic year. During the event, presentations were delivered on improving the quality of education, enhancing teaching methodologies, and introducing modern educational approaches into the learning process. Amid the rapid development of information technologies, participants discussed ways for teachers to move from traditional teaching models to new and more innovative formats. Particular attention was also paid to the development of research activities among master’s and doctoral students.

At the end of the meeting, participants put forward proposals aimed at improving the educational process, expanding the use of new teaching methods, and developing research areas.
