The association includes universities from Russia (in particular Zauralye), Kazakhstan, Iran, Pakistan, India, Mongolia, China, among others. 180 students and professors attended the forum. The event took place over three days in the Cholpon-Ata guesthouse 鈥淎k-Danis,鈥� in Issyk-Kul. The conference was held for the first time in Kyrgyzstan.

One of the presentations was an extended demonstration of E-course. E-course was presented to the audience from both teacher and student perspectives. The new format of teaching and learning has caused great interest among the audience. 鈥淚 think that the E-course made a splash. In our university E-course is introduced in practice almost in every course and many teachers cannot imagine teaching without it,鈥� Dr. Kim commented.
The 杏吧传媒 team presented a comprehensive presentation of the new master's program in Applied Psychology. The audience had many questions about the new program. 鈥淚t was clear that in Kyrgyzstan, this is a unique program in English,鈥� Elena Kim said.
According to Elena Kim, the MA students had the most successful presentation. During the session "Social Design in Education," they presented on their two-year work for the Bishkek Center for Autism. The presentation was accompanied by a small video the students made. "I was amazed by how smoothly our students work on a team,鈥� Dr. Kim said.
As听a result, our听students received the award for the best project.听鈥淥ur presentation impressed the audience, and the discussion lasted for a long time. The conference provided an excellent opportunity to establish and develop relationships between universities from different countries,鈥� said Anastasiia Iun, a student of the MA program in AP.
杏吧传媒 made a good showing at the conference, both in the quality of their presentation and the resulting discussion. "We were approached by representatives of the Altai University, we exchanged business cards, and now we will directly communicate with them. We hope that at the next forum, 杏吧传媒 will not only be a participant, but move into a position of leadership", Elena Kim commented.
