The third year student of the Karaganda State Industrial University Arailym Smaile is awarded a letter of thanks for participating in the republican essay contest dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the constitutional legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The contest was held by the Constitutional Council of the Republic of Kazakhstan jointly with the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the First President’s Foundation among students and schoolchildren. Representatives of KSIU  took an active part in it, and the essay of the student of the group “Electroenergy-15k” Arailym Smaile was eventually recognized as one of the best.

The contest was held remotely. Arailym sent her work “Man, his rights and freedoms – the highest value”, prepared in the Kazakh language. When writing, she says with pride, she did not use Internet resources, but expressed her opinion completely.

– I wrote about the fact that in case of violation of human rights, responsibility for this lies first of all on him, because he does not know the laws of the country in which he lives, – says Araylym. “But at the same time, I pointed out in my essay that such people should be helped in every way by those who are well aware of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan. And it is necessary to carry out measures to explain human rights and the laws of the country – this will protect our citizens.

All interested persons could become participants of the training dictation in the Kazakh language, which was held for the first time in the Karaganda region. On April 27, about three hundred people of different ages, among whom were representatives of different nationalities, gathered in the huge streaming audience of the university to check the knowledge of the new font.

The dictation was conducted at the initiative of the Kazakh, Russian and Foreign Languages ​​Department with the support of the Karaganda State Industrial University (KSIU) leadership in order to implement the state program “Ruhani zhangyru: Latin alipbiine koshu». The organizers wanted to see people of Temirtau  actually: switching to Latin graphics is not so difficult as it seems at first glance, and very convenient. This test dictation was planned to draw attention to a new font. By the way, on the eve of the event, all the participants received leaflets with a new Kazakh font in Latin as a hint.

Students from city schools and colleges, representatives of various organizations and, of course, students, teachers and employees of the KSIU – were all worried a little before the start of the unusual and new for all event. Before the dictation of the audience, several training assignments were given concerning pronunciation, writing and reading. After the warm-up, active participants received small sweet presents. And then it began, in fact, for the sake of what all on this day gathered in KSIU.

The text of the dictation was the final word from Nursultan Nazarbayev’s article “Ruhani zhangyru: modernization of public consciousness.”

“Our university is the Alma mater of the first President,” says the rector of KSIU Bakhyt Zhautikov. – We support all initiatives, in particular, the initiative to transfer the Kazakh language to the Latin schedule. For us it is very important, because students should be ready to enter the world educational space, they must be able to navigate in any country and in any situation. This initiative is both relevant and timely, and I think it will undoubtedly benefit everyone.

One of the participants of the pilot dictation was the teacher of the department “Construction” Anastasia Mezentseva.

– I’m interested. I want to be involved in the global changes taking place in our state, so I immediately decided that I would try to write dictation in Kazakh using the Latin alphabet, “she says. – However, already closer to the appointed time began to worry, how much I will manage.

The dictation consisted of 115 words. The senior lecturer of the Kazakh, Russian and foreign languages ​​department Zhania Kapasheva became the reader. In the course of writing, the participants did not all go smoothly, but on that he and “the first test ball.”

– Personally, I had a difficulty with additional characters in the Latin alphabet, as well as when writing the letter “c”. I do not know if I did the right thing, but I wrote “t” and “s” in this case, “Anastasia Mezentseva told after the dictation. – In addition, I did not know how to correctly write the letters “yu” and “ya” – wrote “y” and “u”, as well as “y” and “a” respectively.

As the organizers said, the results of the dictation will be used in the future in order to draw conclusions and prepare proposals to the commission on languages.

“I think that this work will have a big resonance and will bring great benefits to our entire country,” says Bakhyt Zhautikov. – If such events will be held more and more, the transition to the Latin alphabet will pass painlessly. This is not the last event of this kind – in autumn we plan to hold a second dictation, already with the involvement of the residents of the entire Karaganda region. In addition, in the long term we are considering the possibility of opening courses on the study of the Latin script of the Kazakh language – everything will depend on demand.

The organizers plan to sum up the dictation right after May 1. Check the work will be the leading philologists of the Department of Languages ​​KSIU and city teachers – have already prepared a monitoring group that will carefully verify each letter. The best works will be marked with memorable prizes and letters.
