    ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ СТРАТЕГИИ ЧТЕНИЯ КАЗАХСТАНСКИМИ УЧЕНИКАМИ, ИЗУЧАЮЩИМИ АНГЛИЙСКИЙ ЯЗЫК КАК ИНОСТРАННЫЙ ЯЗЫК
    (2022 International Young Scholars' Conference, 2022) Д. Азаматова
    Аннотация Понимание прочитанного рассматривается как основа обучения в различных учебных программах для развития словарного запаса, письма, грамматики, общих языковых курсов. Поэтому преподаватели иностранных языков должны обучать студентов стратегиям, которые они могут использовать для улучшения своих навыков. В этой статье дается общий обзор того, как учащиеся регулируют стратегии обучения. В нем исследуется использование стратегий чтения, разъясняются стратегии как высокочастотного, так и низкочастотного использования, а также обсуждаются их последствия для преподавания в классе. Данные были собраны с помощью вопросника, который включал 40 вопросов Лайкерта по пятибалльной шкале, и участников попросили обвести по шкале от "Никогда" (1) до "Всегда" (5), в зависимости от их положения. Результаты показывают, что среднее использование стратегии студентами находится в среднем диапазоне, что указывает на то, что они не являются постоянными пользователями стратегии. Вывод исследования заключается в том, что стратегии обучения чтению должны уделять больше внимания учителям и разработчикам учебных программ. Результаты исследования могут быть полезны для информирования учителей иностранных языков о преимуществах обучения, основанного на стратегии, и о том, насколько это может быть полезно для обучения языковым навыкам, особенно навыкам чтения.

    THE CONCEPT OF ANALYZING THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE SYSTEM AND MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR ENSURING INTEGRATED SECURITY
    (2022 International Young Scholars' Conference, 2022) N. Abdinurova; Y. Mukhamedkali; O. Baimuratov
    Abstract. Since the development of the Internet, humanity has stopped using real information data that is transmitted in a classical way, that is, printed or written on paper, which has increased the number of users, which, consequently, has increased the amount of data transmitted between users. Because of this, the number of both intentional and unintentional cyber-attacks has increased dramatically. With the development of technologies, people's privacy and confidentiality are increasingly vulnerable because of these cyber attacks. The article talks about the overall level of security and tries to define the general formula for organizations with Wi-Fi routers and network printers. The security level of each component is determined through penetration testing using open-source ethical hacking tools. Define math formula need to take into consideration several factors such as vulnerability, usage frequency, etc. This paper shows some ways to penetrate the organization's network and some recommendations are also given to improve the security of the local infrastructure of organizations.

    (2022 International Young Scholars' Conference, 2022) A. Tlepbergenova
    Abstract The aim of this article is to describe the influence of out-of-school English language learning on academic achievement in Kazakhstani high schools. English language acquisition plays a pivotal role in Kazakhstan, as English is not only an international communication language, but also the foreign language for obligatory study in state schools and higher education. Approximately 130 representatives of various ethnic groups populate Kazakhstan, thus it is considered as the multi religious and multiethnic state. Currently, the society development is altering Kazakhstan from bilingual to multilingual , integrating Kazakh, Russian and English languages into the educational system embedding policy of multilingualism at state schools all over the country. However, second language learners tend to demonstrate poor performance and low average points in foreign language examinations. Factors affecting low performance in school and entrance exams, the trend among students preferring private and extracurricular foreign language teaching for various educational purposes will be considered in this paper. Study is going to dissect the relationship between extracurricular foreign language learning and poor performance at state schools. Flaws in the educational system and methods of teaching in public schools and the benefits and positive impact of private education will be discussed in a future paper. This article is the systematic review of the scientific literature related to poor performance in EFL at schools and influence of out-of-school learning to academic performance of high school students.

    APPLICATION OF NEW METHODS OF TEACHING BIOLOGY WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF STEM
    (2022 International Young Scholars' Conference, 2022) V. Rastorguyeva; A. Shametov; A. Kozhamzhar; D. Kanatova
    Abstract This study examined the current advancement in implementing methods of teaching biology within STEM at the schools of Kazakhstan. Data were collected from 33 teachers and 218 middle-school students representing various educational institutions such as State Lyceums, General Education Schools, and NIS/BIL/RPHMS via questionnaire. Results showed that the number of teachers applying STEM techniques has significantly increased, whereas many students are still not entirely familiar with the practice. One significant issue that both teachers and students have noted is the lack of high-tech equipment available at most schools. Therefore, the second part of the research investigated the possibility of introducing STEM experiments using only readily accessible materials. Ten students from the State Lyceum observed and participated in four STEMrelated biological experiments, and their feedback was further recorded. Despite the apparent enhancement of the students' engagement in the studying process and positive reviews regarding STEM experiments, a lack of specialized hardware has remained a significant drawback. Additional consequences and limitations are discussed.

The study explores the effectiveness of teaching a self-regulated strategy development approach to improve writing an opinion essay for seventh-graders. During the survey, questionnaires, pre-essay, and post-essay were conducted with twenty participants. Our analysis demonstrated improvements in writing skills through teaching students POW and TREE strategies during stages of SRSD. The students can express their minds clearly, learn to use linking words in an essay, decrease spelling mistakes, and improve Vocabulary. Writing opinion essays became more accessible and exciting for students. We conclude that the SRSD approach can help achieve high-quality writing tasks according to the students' level.

    USAGE OF READING STRATEGIES BY KAZAKHSTANI EFL STUDENTS
    (2022 International Young Scholars' Conference, 2022) M. Sanatkyzy; A. K. Kitibayeva
    Abstract Reading comprehension is considered as the basis of learning in various educational programs for the development of writing, vocabulary, and grammar. Therefore, foreign language instructors should teach pupils strategies for improving their reading skills. This article gives a general overview of how learners regulate learning strategies. It explores the use of reading strategies, elucidates strategies for high-frequency use as well as low-frequency use, and discusses their implications for classroom teaching. The data were collected using a questionnaire that included 40 Likert questions on a five-point scale, and participants were asked to circle on a scale from "Never" (1) to "Always" (5), depending on their position. The results show that students' average strategy usage is in the medium range, indicating that they are not regular strategy users. The study's findings suggest that instructors and curriculum developers should pay more attention to strategies for reading instruction. The results of the study might be helpful for informing the language teachers about the merits of strategy-based instruction and how helpful it can be in instructing language skills particularly reading skill.
