Published: May 2024

Relevance. In general education institutions and classrooms, it is often possible to meet children with disabilities who need a special approach to learning. In order to make it easier for such children to adapt, special methods and technologies are needed that will help children study educational material. This is the job of a teacher, who must have a number of properties and qualities to create a comfortable inclusive education.Purpose. The purpose of the article was to determine the qualities and conditions that future teachers should have in the process of inclusive education.Methodology. In this study, questionnaires were used to determine the level of tolerance, psychological stability, empathy, and communication skills to achieve the goal. The first of these questionnaires helped identify the level of pedagogical and psychological readiness for inclusive education, and the findings showed that students of the 1st and 2nd years of the speciality �Psychology� are not ready for such education, especially through low motivation.Results. The study showed that professional qualities in inclusive education are better demonstrated by senior students (3rd-4th year), rather than junior students (1st-2nd year). The characteristics of such personal components as the level of motivation, the level of social adaptation and the level of psychological stability depend on the level of informativeness of students and their experience in inclusive education. In addition, the study highlighted the level of empathy and tolerance that develop students� ability to communicate correctly and competently with children, understand their condition, and contribute to the learning process. As in previous questionnaires, these qualities are at a high level among undergraduates.Conclusions. This study identified the main components of psychological and pedagogical training of students, which will allow them to work with children with special needs, and help them quickly adapt to a different type of learning.

Published: May 2024

Relevance. The concept of aesthetic education and its implementation in the educational process and daily life of states is one of the fundamental conditions for the becoming of civil society, and has an essential impact on the formation of the cultural heritage of any country in the world.Purpose. The purpose of this study was to examine the specific features of the concepts of aesthetic education in the People�s Republic of China (PRC) and Kyrgyzstan, as well as to identify differences in the cultural and educational systems of these two countries.Methodology. The methodological framework of this study included the methods and techniques of scientific cognition, which were used to solve the tasks set and ensure the relevance of the results obtained. The study employed the general scientific systemic-structural, dialectical, interdisciplinary historical and legal methods and the method of synthesis, as well as the methods of analysis and a systematic approach to conducting this study.Results. The research found that the differences in the concepts of aesthetic education stem primarily from the different historical, cultural, and educational environments of the two countries. China has a long tradition of art and culture, and much attention is paid to art education. Kyrgyzstan, as a multinational state, also has a diverse culture, but the population is focused on how to promote its unique culture through aesthetic education. The Chinese education system also includes aesthetic education as a subject in the compulsory curriculum and has a special art education course. In Kyrgyzstan, however, there are specialised art courses and various educational resources available, but the level of aesthetic education stays relatively low.Conclusions. The result of this study can serve as an impetus for finding opportunities for educational exchanges and cooperation between China and Kyrgyzstan, which will help expand intercultural relations and improve cultural education in general, and can help to better understand the nature and characteristics of aesthetic education in the two countries, which will contribute to the establishment of educational exchanges and cooperation between them.

Published: May 2024

Relevance. The pedagogical process should contribute to improving the functional literacy of students, including through mathematical skills. To accomplish this task, a methodology is needed that implements the effective construction of mathematics lessons.Purpose. The purpose of the study is to consider ways to improve the functional literacy of schoolchildren in mathematics.Methodology. To achieve this goal, the following methods were used: analysis, synthesis, hermeneutics, generalisation, concretisation, comparison, experiment, survey, and testing.Results. The main results of the empirical research are the identification of problems faced by students when solving mathematical problems, and the selection of methods that contribute to improving functional literacy in mathematics lessons. The identified problems include: misunderstanding of mathematical terminology, problems of establishing the relationship between variables, problems in writing conclusions. To overcome these problems, students engaged in mathematics according to a methodology that includes: practice-oriented material, tasks for the classification of concepts, and also faced mathematical tasks in integrated lessons. Such training has led to the development of functional literacy. In addition, with the help of theoretical research, it was found that there is no single approach to the interpretation of the term �functional literacy�, and the fact that the term has changed since its introduction into everyday use. The meaning of the term reveals the criteria and parameters that are relevant for international monitoring checks. Moreover, when forming the original term �functional literacy�, current trends in modern life of society and human needs for effective social interaction are considered. Based on these criteria, tasks for international tests of the level of functional literacy are built.Conclusions. The practical value of the research is that the results can be used to develop the necessary methodologies in the construction of the pedagogical process, and in scientific activities to study the criteria of functional literacy.

Published: May 2024

The main objective of this study was to create much more accurate maps of the ‘dissection depth’ and ‘dissection density’ in Mongolia, considering both the vertical and horizontal directions. To achieve this, two digital evetation models (DEMs) were used: the MERIT DEM with a spatial resolution of 90 meters and the ASTER DEM with a resolution of 30 meters. Some adjustments were made to rectify errors in relatively flat areas. The entire territory of Mongolia was selected as the study area, resulting in the creation of 2,865,000 grids with a resolution of 1 km. For each grid, the minimum and maximum values, as well as the length of dissection, were estimated. Finally, an interpolation method was used for mapping the depth and density of the dissection. The utilization of digital elevation models in the dissection map has exposed certain inaccuracies in flat areas. Consequently, the MERIT DEM has been selected as the favored alternative. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the disparities between the dissection depth map and the relative elevation map, as both play a vital role in comprehending and applying the concept of dissection depth. The maps of the dissection density and depth have proven to be highly valuable in the field of geomorphological and landscape research, as well as in the classification of origin groups and typological classification.
Issues of determining the effects of migration on population growth in Ulaanbaatar
Authors: Otgonkhuu Tsedev-Ish , Enkh-Amgalan Sandag , Amanguli Shugatai
Published: May 2024

Since Mongolia's transition to a market economy in the 1990s, the “Great Migration” from rural to urban areas due to job shortages and natural disasters (droughts and dzud - disaster affecting livestock caused by severe natural conditions) in rural areas has continued. Many of these in-migrants have settled in large cities and their suburbs, especially in Ulaanbaatar, leading to many problems, including environmental pollution, traffic congestion, and overcrowding of social services. In addition, a number of studies have been conducted in Mongolia about the types of internal migration, factors influencing it, causes, characteristics of migrants, consequences and vulnerabilities. However, there is a lack of research about population location, density, settlement and their changes due to migration, especially the urban-rural population ratio, urban population growth and the impact of migration on it. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to analyze the main indicators of population migration in Ulaanbaatar, to determine its impact on population growth, to evaluate and to determine future trend. Within the framework of the study, spatial and statistical analysis of data and materials of the last 30 years (1990-2019) of the main population indicators of Ulaanbaatar was conducted and future trend was determined based on the population projections. According to the research results, in-migrants were always dominant in Ulaanbaatar from 1990 to 2019, and the intensity of migration generally increased in the years following droughts and dzuds. In addition, a total of 663.1 thousand people migrated to Ulaanbaatar from aimags and rural areas over the last 30 years, which is equal to 45.2 percent of the total population of Ulaanbaatar in 2019. As a result, urban population of Mongolia counted 2,212.9 thousand in 2020, and the urbanization rate reached 68.0 percent, of which 67.7 percent is concentrated in Ulaanbaatar alone. Between 2000 and 2009, 47.4 percent of the total in-migrants (1990-2019) or 314.5 thousand people moved to Ulaanbaatar, which was the peak of migration to Ulaanbaatar. From a population perspective, Ulaanbaatar's population is expected to reach 2.5 million or the equivalent of 50.5 percent of the total population of the country in 2050. In order to reduce overcrowding in Ulaanbaatar, it is necessary, in the future, to reduce inland migration from rual areas  to Ulaanbaatar, reduce the gap between urban and rural development levels, support and develop regional development cities, and diversify settlements system.

Published: May 2024

Kale, a imortant crop for family farms, gains added value through minimal processing, enhancing freshness and convenience. UV-C irradiation emerges as a promising method for extending kale's shelf life without chemicals, although standardization is complex due to varying food resistances to light penetration.The study in question analyzed the effects of two different irradiation times on minimally processed cabbage, packaged in bowls and Styrofoam with plastic film, observing changes in physical-chemical and sensory parameters, such as loss of mass, color, pH, and visual and olfactory signs of deterioration. Six treatments were tested, varying the exposure time and the type of packaging, as well as a treatment with chlorinated sanitizer, using the Tukey test at 5% significance to determine the most effective in preserving the product. It was found that the packaging in the cumbuca resulted in less mass loss compared to the tray, and the lowest pH values were recorded in the treatment with UV-C light in the cumbuca, which may indicate that they are an option for reducing the stress of the product after processing. None of the color parameters a* and b* or the luminosity index differed from each other, so it is valid to say that the UV-C radiation and chlorine sanitization treatments applied in the experiment were able to preserve the color of the cabbage samples for a period of 8 days. Therefore, the application of UV-C light did not negatively affect the color, pH or loss of mass of the minimally processed cabbage and combined with the correct packaging can be an alternative to conventional sanitization, in addition to maintaining the original aroma of the product.
