The participants of the “Summer School 2017” international project had a really busy agenda full of discussion-lessons on day 5.
During an hour-and-a-half lecture the Assistant of the ASPU Chair of Professional Education and Applied Pedagogy Serob Khachatryan presented the changes, trends and peculiarities of education in the modern world.
“During the lecture we identified that the most important mission of a pedagogue is not being a source of information, but being able to guide and orientate. I also acquired new professional features during the discussion-lesson,” the Armenian student of the Moscow State Psychological and Pedagogical University Lilit Movsisyan mentioned in her interview to the old.aspu.am.
She also noticed that pedagogues should be flexible and keep up with what was happening in the world.
Parallel to the development of the overall sphere of education the significance of introducing electronic technologies is also increasing.
This was the topic of the following discussion-lecture organized for the participants, during which the Head of the ASPU Department of Education Reforms and Quality Assurance Mkrtich Avagyan refered to the advantages and disadvantages of introducing the e-system.
The student of the Moscow State Psychological and Pedagogical University Olga Ponomeryeva noticed in her interview to the old.aspu.am that the electronic form of education was not wide-spread in Moscow and for that reason she was interested to listen to the opinions of students coming from other countries in this regards.
“Both lectures delivered during the day carried some novelty; they were interesting and informative. In the process of discussions we learned a lot, which I hope to be able to further apply in practice.
The learning part of the day was followed by a trip to the Matenadaran - the Mesrop Mashtots Institute of Ancient Manuscripts.
The foreign visitors made a tour around one of the World’s biggest centres of preserving manuscripts where they got familiarised with the manuscripts and samples that were kept there.
The trip to Yerevan was not completed only with the visit to the Matenadaran; the participants had a chance to make a free tour around the capital city for three hours.
“I love your country, you are only lacking the sea; when touring around, one has an impression that the streets will soon lead to the sea,” mentioned the participant from Saint Petersburg Yevgenia Gontova.
Likewise, she is assured that even though Armenians are spread around the world, still in order to understand real Armenians, one should visit Armenia.
