International Scientific-practical conference continues its work in three sections

On November 28, the international scientific-practical conference entitled “Innovative Development of Methods of Teaching Chemistry and Current Advancement of Chemical Technologies” continued its sessions at Magtymguly Turkmen State University in three thematic sections “Modern Methods of Chemistry Teaching and Ways of their Improvement”, “Challenges and Future Development of New Chemical Technologies” and “The Role of Innovative Technologies in Modern Development of Natural Sciences”.

The sections featured presentations by professors and researchers from various countries, including the Russian Federation, Japan, the People’s Republic of China, the Republic of Turkiye, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Republic of Tajikistan, the Republic of Armenia, Ethiopia, and Turkmenistan. Participants shared scientific insights on modern teaching methodologies of chemistry, issues of advancements of chemical technologies, and the integration of innovative technologies in natural sciences, the results of the works carried out in this field by representative educational establishments.

The first section “Modern Methods of Chemistry Teaching and Ways of their Improvement” focused on contemporary methods in chemistry education, emphasizing the use of informational technologies in teaching chemistry, comprehensive and in-depth approaches to preparing students for chemistry Olympiads, modern methods for teaching chemistry through innovative approaches, the role of educational games in enhancing students’ understanding of chemistry, and improving the quality of chemistry lessons through creative and experimental tasks.

In the second section “Challenges and Future Development of New Chemical Technologies”, discussions centered on topics such as the technology, characteristics, and applications of photosynthesized nanoparticles, modern methods for recycling and neutralizing waste from the oil and gas industry, biochemistry of nucleotides, the impact of modified nucleotides on antioxidant levels in biochemical and inflammatory processes, artificial intelligence-based optimization in dye industry processes: the method of surface reaction, STEM skill development in chemistry and biology lessons for alpha generation, the synthesis of fluorescent composite materials from biodegradable polymer matrices, usage of innovative methods in teaching natural sciences, and the application of chemical technologies in producing mineral fertilizers and desalinating saline water.

The third section “The Role of Innovative Technologies in Modern Development of Natural Sciences” covered the reports on research and synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles based on manganese and cobalt ferrites, technological advancements in chemistry, technical characteristics of gas concrete production, new thickening compounds derived from oxidized starch for fabric reinforcement and studying their special peculiarities, practical teaching of organic chemistry, competitive methods of teaching chemistry by encouraging talented students through awards, carbon nanotube synthesis from cyclopentadienyl iron dicarbonyl compounds, the frequency characteristics of ionosphere radio channels, the research on usage of environmentally friendly micro seaweeds in plants, method of maceration of coal types for polynomial studies, physical-chemical studies of dust particles in various regions of the Karakum Desert, and environmental research on using microalgae in agriculture.

Participants of the ceremony from foreign and Turkmen educational establishments and scientific institutions delivered engaging presentations about their ongoing projects.

The participants of the international scientific-practical conference shared their experience with their colleagues on the various issues about the innovative methods of chemistry teaching and advancement of chemical technologies.

At the end of the sections of the conference, participants expressed their gratitude for the opportunities provided by the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Hero Arkadag, and the Esteemed President of Turkmenistan, Arkadagly Hero Serdar. They underlined the high level of organization of the event and exchanged valuable expertise on modernizing the methodology of teaching chemistry and advancing chemical technologies.
