Impact of Students – Ethnic Kazakh (Qandastar) On the Educational Space of Kazakhstan: Academic, Social and Cultural Aspects
The purpose of the work is to study and assess the impact of this target group on the educational space of Kazakhstan at the educational, methodological, social and cultural levels.
To obtain research materials, namely, primary information, we used both quantitative (online survey) and qualitative (interviews with students and experts) methods of collecting information. Questionnaires and interviews were conducted among the qandastar and Kazakhstani students to compare the mutual existing and emerging perceptions of each other by both groups, their dynamics, mutual understanding and mutual influence, as well as among representatives of the university administration – experts in the field of educational programs for repatriates.
The results of the work suggest adjustments to the assessment of the “educational migration” program intended for qandastar, providing empirical data on the socialization of fellow Kazakhs from abroad who are currently studying and studying at the universities of Kazakhstan over the past few years, and an assessment of the influence of this social group, their value attitudes to local student communities and the academic environment. The latter factor has not been previously studied either in theoretical terms or in practice, therefore we consider it as a new approach to the study of the cultural and educational space of Kazakhstan. The results of in-depth interviews provided material for critical rethinking of educational strategies in social and methodological terms and formulating proposals for their expansion and deepening.
