On October 6, 2026, an educational hour was organized on the theme "Abai’s 'Tolyq adam' Concept as a Foundation of Moral and Spiritual Education."
The head of the Department of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ye.B. Ospanov, along with senior lecturers M.M. Sembayeva, D.P. Pernebekova, and M.B. Seidaliyeva, were responsible for organizing the event. The educational work was conducted with the students of the Ecology 25-06 group.
During the session, students were provided with brief information about the life and work of the great thinker and poet Abai Qunanbaiuly, with the main focus placed on the concept of "Tolyq Adam" (A Perfect Person). The organizers promoted values such as morality, education, hard work, honor, justice, and compassion, introducing Abai's philosophical views. The students read excerpts from the "Words of Wisdom" (Qara Sozder) and performed a short play, thoroughly analyzing the educational significance of the topic.
The harmony of mind, will, and heart was discussed as the core of the "Tolyq Adam" idea. Students shared their opinions on the qualities a well-rounded personality should possess in modern society.
The educational work achieved its goal. The youth understood the relevance of Abai's concepts for modern times, emphasizing the role of values like the pursuit of knowledge, diligence, honesty, and responsibility in personal development. At the end of the event, the participants sang the great poet's song "Zhelsiz tunde zharyq ai" (A bright moon on a windless night), concluding the meeting on a high and inspiring note.
