Today, senior PhD teacher of the Higher School of Natural Sciences, Ayman Beisembaevna Karabalaeva, conducted an exciting environmental lesson on the theme "The Power of Climate" for 9th grade students of the Binom Lyceum named after Y. Altynsarina!

The topic of the lesson "The Power of Climate" revealed to students many important aspects of climate change, their causes and consequences for the planet. Ayman Beisembayevna explained how human activity — from industrial production to changes in natural landscapes — intensifies climatic shifts, which leads to serious consequences such as melting glaciers, sea level rise and extreme weather events. 

The influence of climate is evident in every corner of the Earth: from the warming of the Arctic to droughts in Africa and wildfires in Australia. Ayman Karabalayeva also spoke in detail about the greenhouse effect and how the accumulation of carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere causes an increase in the average temperature on the planet. This knowledge allowed the students to understand the global scale of the problem and the importance of international efforts to combat climate change.

The power of Climate is not only its destructive influence, but also an opportunity for humanity to change the situation. The students learned how each of us can influence the future of the Earth. Simple actions such as saving energy, eliminating single-use plastics, using renewable energy sources, recycling waste and planting trees can have a significant positive impact on the climate.

During the lesson, Ayman Beisembayevna used fascinating interactive tasks and quizzes to consolidate students' knowledge. The guys actively participated in the discussions, offered their ideas on reducing the carbon footprint and learned about existing international environmental initiatives such as the Paris Agreement and reforestation programs.

👏🏼 We are confident that such initiatives contribute to the formation of environmental awareness among young people and inspire them to take active actions to protect the environment! This knowledge lays the foundation for a more responsible attitude towards nature and a future in which man lives in harmony with the environment.

Career guidance was also conducted during the lesson, where high school students learned about professions in the field of ecology, climatology and renewable energy sources. Such professions are not only relevant, but also extremely important for the sustainable development of the planet.

 Choosing a future profession is one of the most important decisions in every person's life. In this matter, it is important not only to follow your dreams, but also to be aware of your real interests, abilities and inclinations. Career guidance helps high school students see this not as a difficult dilemma, but as an opportunity to better understand themselves and their strengths in order to make an informed choice.

On October 22, 2024, such a meeting was held at the K. Satpayev Lyceum No. 61, designed to help students of grades 10-11 determine their professional path. Experts from Astana International University (AIU) conducted a rich program with interactive lectures and master classes aimed at ensuring that each student could better understand their inclinations and find the answer to the main question — who to become in the future.

👩‍🏫 The team of experts consisted of Malika Imangalieva, Dinara Kaharman, Amangelda Kazizov, Kamila Rakhmatulina and Ayazhan Nazhmadinova, who conducted interactive lectures and master classes. Each lesson was filled with live real-life examples, dynamic tasks and useful tips, allowing the children to take a fresh look at the diversity of professions.

The main purpose of the meeting was not only to introduce students to various fields, but also to create conditions for an informed choice through a deep analysis of their interests, talents and inclinations. Students could ask any questions of concern to the teachers and take fascinating tests that helped to identify their preferences in the professional field.

Such events play a key role in building students' confidence and helping them feel ready for important life decisions. AIU actively supports initiatives of this kind, realizing how important career guidance is for the development of successful individuals and future professionals.

✨ An exciting scientific seminar dedicated to "Physics" was held at Astana International University, where theoretical ideas met with practical findings. This event has become a real platform for discussing current areas of physics and inspiration for students and young scientists.

🤝 The seminar brought together not only teachers and undergraduates of the AIU, but also students of the L.N. Gumilev Eurasian National University, as well as teachers and students of urban schools, including Lyceum No. 2 named after G. Kayyrbekov and school No. 95. The atmosphere of knowledge and experience exchange was so lively that each participant felt like a part of a single scientific community.

💡 Impressive reports were presented at the event, which made the audience think about the versatility of physics. Associate Professor, PhD and head of the Physics educational program S.A. Nurkenov opened the seminar, emphasizing the importance of physics for modern society and the need to train specialists for a future nuclear power plant. His words inspired young people to actively participate in scientific research.

🔍 Various topics were discussed at the seminar, including the use of Python to visualize the probability density of gas molecules, the study of the Schrodinger equation using Matlab, methods for analyzing the harmonic oscillator in quantum dynamics, and the use of radiopharmaceuticals for early diagnosis of cancer. The event concluded with a report on the development of thermally stable nanocoating based on Fe-Be2+δ.

🌌 The seminar participants actively discussed how theoretical concepts of physics find practical application in various fields, including new experimental methods and modern technologies. These discussions not only expanded scientific horizons, but also increased the interest of young scientists in physics as a fascinating and important field of knowledge.

🎓 We sincerely thank all the participants, especially Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Toksan Aypkanovich Zhakataev, and physics teacher of school No. 95 Bisimbayeva Zhibek Baltashevna, for their active participation and contribution to the development of the scientific community. Together we are making steps into the future of science!
