INTERACTIVE LESSONS. «KAZAKHSTAN PATRIOT»

Active engagement with seminar participants is a distinctive feature of the educational activities of the Library of Elbassy. Brainstorming, creativity, and youth debates allow you to reveal the topics of the lessons in-depth, and most importantly, to consolidate their key messages in the course of joint discussion at training sessions. Interactive tables of the Library of Elbassy play a special role in the effectiveness of this educational approach.

Interactive tables are a large-scale educational and methodological complex containing electronic information about the history of Kazakhstan as an independent state. One of the sections of the complex is dedicated to the theme "Kazakhstan patriot". The material of this table covers various historical epochs, focusing on the fact that at the time of all independent states that existed on the territory of Kazakhstan, the local component - language, anthropological specificity, mentality, unique tolerance, religious beliefs, customs, and even economic and cultural type remained mostly stable and unchanged.

Based on photographs and digitized archival documents, seminar participants share their opinions and visions of how a particular historical process developed. What qualities did our ancestors have to possess to preserve our land until present generations? What events played a crucial role at the turn of the 80-90s of the last century in the formation of sovereignty? What do you mean by patriotism? What does First President of Kazakhstan N. Nazarbayev mean by "new Kazakhstan patriotism"? - answers to these questions allow young people to think about their own role in the fate of the motherland, their contribution to strengthening independence, and also come to understand that out of love for their "small homeland", patriotic feelings for the whole country are born and grow stronger.

  

A special place in the complex of interactive tables of the Library is occupied by the section on the life and activities of Elbassy N. Nazarbayev. "Kazakhstan patriot" gives an opportunity to see photos and films about the childhood and youth of the First President of Kazakhstan, his formation as the head of an independent state, a real citizen and a true patriot.

In addition, interesting facts from the history of the creation of state symbols of Kazakhstan and the role of Nursultan Nazarbayev in their formation are also revealed in detail through photos and archival documents of the "Kazakhstan patriot" table. Among them is the text of the manuscript of the famous song "My Fatherland" by Zh. Nazhmidenov and Sh. Kaldayakov, which was supplemented and strengthened by Elbassy. The citizens of Kazakhstan, famous athletes on the highest world arenas reverently perform this version:

Revealing important political and economic aspects of the formation of an independent state, strengthening the patriotic consciousness of Kazakhstanis, the interactive table "Kazakhstan patriot" also provides an opportunity to experience the features of the Kazakh culture and national identity.

"Using the library's interactive tables allows us to charge our listeners with valuable knowledge. Listening to the videos, studying the documents and photos they get very important food for thought, which they immediately share during the training. You can see their interest in further research, deepening into the given topic. In turn, we, as teachers, are interested in feedback, especially from young people. As they gain new knowledge from us, they ask us questions. And this high level of interest in the history of their country, their people, and their future is a reflection of what a young Kazakhstani patriot is today as a thinking, active, caring creator," - emphasizes the leading researcher of the Service for social, humanitarian and educational projects of the Library A. Khamitova.
