Item Open Access Researching the user experience of students with special educational needs using virtual chemistry laboratories(SDU University, 2025) Assel Absattarova; Halit Yilmaz Satilmis; Danara Raikhanova; Gulmira BekenovaStudents with special educational needs often face significant barriers in chemistry lessons, especially in traditional chemical laboratory settings. Currently, this work is relevant because it is aimed at identifying key barriers preventing their participation in chemistry lessons, as well as studying the perception of a virtual laboratory by students with special educational needs. The aim of the work was to investigate what obstacles students with disabilities face in traditional chemistry lessons and how their experience changes when using a virtual laboratory. Open interviews with seven students with disabilities were processed using the method of thematic analysis. The analysis revealed four main barriers in the traditional learning format: 1) accelerated pace of material submission, 2) lack of practical interaction, 3) physical limitations, 4) emotional and emotional limitations. The virtual laboratory has overcome these obstacles by providing security, individual pace of work, multimodal visualization, and an enhanced sense of meaningful participation. The participants noted an increase in self-confidence, a decrease in anxiety in the classroom and an increase in motivation for the subject. The results confirm the potential of virtual environments as an inclusive tool that promotes equal participation of all students in a unified educational process.Item Open Access ANALYSIS OF STUDENT’S SOCIAL WELFARE AND IT’S IMPACT ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE(СДУ хабаршысы - 2019, 2019) Berlikozha B.Abstract. Features of the social status of students are the subjects of scientific interest of many researchers. Various aspects of student life, such as social activity, value system, social reading practices, professional choice, secondary employment and others, are the subjects of scientific interest of many researchers, but in spite of this - the social status of students is investigated to a lesser extent. Its objective indicators are known, and in a historical retrospect they, of course, have changed, but not drastically. The social status of students in the subjective dimension is a very mobile subject of study. The self-assessment of the social status of students reflects public opinion, shapes attitudes towards higher education in society. This actualizes the study of the subjective component of the social status of Kazakh students.Item Open Access Early help, Better education!(Suleyman Demirel University, 2011) Yechshanov G.This paper examines the problem of school underachievement with particular attention to early foreign language instruction in preschool and primary school age. The study highlights that despite the recognized advantages of early systematic foreign language learning, many children experience learning difficulties that lead to poor academic performance and school maladjustment. The causes of underachievement are analyzed from psychological, pedagogical, biological, and social perspectives. Special emphasis is placed on factors such as insufficient school readiness, health problems, speech and sensory impairments, unfavorable social conditions, and weaknesses in teaching methods. The paper reviews classical and modern theories of school failure and stresses the importance of early diagnosis and timely pedagogical support. It is argued that effective assistance to underachieving students requires a комплекс approach involving teachers, psychologists, and medical specialists to prevent long-term learning difficulties and ensure successful education.Item Open Access Investigating The Effectiveness of Extra-Curricular Activities in Chemistry(SDU University, 2026) Bagytzhanova A.KThis study examines the effectiveness of ECAs and the level of student motivation on academic performance in chemistry classes. The theoretical foundations of extracurricular learning and its role in shaping motivation were analyzed. The review highlighted the importance of integrating scientific disciplines and STEM subjects, which include science, technology, engineering, biology, physics, and mathematics, into effective chemistry teaching. The results of national and international studies on ECAs demonstrate that participation in extracurricular lessons provides academic advantages by developing the cognitive and practical skills of each student. It was found that the role of teachers in ECAs is significant, as they influence the effectiveness of laboratory work and increase student motivation. Problems with teaching chemistry in ECAs in different countries have been identified, such as a lack of funding for laboratory classrooms, passive students in the classroom, and a lack of self-discipline and self-control. There is a lack of practical knowledge in lessons, which makes extracurricular lessons special. It is concluded that consistently organized extracurricular activities in chemistry can significantly improve the quality of education.
