This year, for the first time, Abai KazNPU became a partner of the Competition of Innovations in Education (CIE), held annually by the HSE Institute of Education (Moscow, Russia). This partnership is organized within the framework of the international project «Selection and evaluation of educational innovations and conducting a pedagogical experiment» (heads: Koroleva Diana, Abayeva Galiya).

The finalists have passed the stage of the Summer School online! Now they face a new task-to show how to realize their ideas. Scientists from the HSE Institute of Education (Moscow) and the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology of Abai KazNPU should help them in this (for applications from Kazakhstan). The design of the experiment, the organization of the field is the task of a joint project of Abai KazNPU and HSE.

We would like to note that the project members from Abai KazNPU - teachers of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology are actively supporting the competition. Akhmetova Aigul participated in the scientific support of one of the final applications, Akpayeva Assel participated in the examination of applications from Kazakhstan at previous stages, and Tolesheva Ulmeken participated in the analysis of the innovation base of Kazakhstan. All of us will have to not only analyze the database of innovations proposed by Kazakhstanis, but also go through the path of testing and implementation together with the finalists! We set another task - the analysis of innovations in doctoral research conducted at the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology.

Congratulations to all the finalists and wish them good luck at the final presentations on October 28!
