On 1 November of the 2022–2023 academic year, the college signed a memorandum of mutual cooperation with the Tashtan Ermatov Music and Pedagogical College in Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic.
Under the memorandum, the staff of College No. 1 held various teaching, methodological and educational events to exchange experience.
Special-subject teacher U.Zh. Mukhamedzhanova gave an open practical lesson for Group 31“Д” students majoring in Physical Education and Sport. The lesson, part of “Preparation for Observation and Trial Teaching Practice”, addressed “Using Gymnastic Exercises in the Curriculum According to Age”. Colleagues exchanged experience and highlighted the important role of special-subject teaching in preparing knowledgeable and skilled professionals. As the author of “Theory and Methods of Physical Education”, U.Zh. Mukhamedzhanova presented copies of her guide to colleagues from Kyrgyzstan. Teachers from both countries plan joint research, educational and outreach events, and other collaborative projects.
