CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL PROJECT "LESSON IN THE MUSEUM"

The project "Lesson in the Museum" is being implemented jointly with the Department of Education of Almaty. The main objectives of the project are to use the cultural and educational opportunities of the museum in the in–depth study of such school subjects as history, Kazakh language and literature, geography, biology, etc., to promote the formation of students' interest in studying the history of their country, as well as the moral and patriotic education of the younger generation.

The museum lessons are closely "connected" with the school curriculum. At the same time, the museum exhibit does not act as an illustration of acquired knowledge, but as a direct "source of knowledge."
