On March 23, the Year 1 Cohort of the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program met on campus for the first time of their blended studies. Now in the third semester of MAT, this cohort finally had the opportunity to meet face to face. Some students traveled from Osh, Naryn, and Karakol to join those already in Bishkek to meet and learn together, while other classmates joined online for a hybrid learning experience.
Those students on campus took a tour of AUCA, discussed and received peer feedback on their teaching planning and practice, enjoyed pizza for lunch, presented their research questions and study design for feedback, and met with some of the Year 2 Cohort members for dinner at Navat.
