Tips for online learning

 

March 24

Dear students, 

We prepared this manual to address the most frequently asked questions we have received from you over the last week. As you already know, we will re-start our spring semester on March 30 in the online learning mode. We will be using the term “online learning” in this document and further communication with our community to define the mode we will be working in. You will find in this Manual important information about academic continuity, online learning, remote access to AUCA services such as WARC, advising and library, exchange programs and many other things you might be interested in knowing. Please read this file very carefully as you might find answers for many of your questions and greatly help the faculty and staff in their work.   

AUCA faculty and staff are making every effort to ensure this transition for all of you is as smooth as possible. We are glad to be serving a learning community of such intelligent, tech-savvy and creative students, and we appreciate your commitment during these challenging times. 

Here is the link to the Student's Manual.

Take good care of yourselves!  

 

March 16

Dear Students,

As many of you are aware, for the purposes of prevention of spread of coronavirus, the Security Council of the Kyrgyz Republic has decided to close universities and schools for quarantine. And the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic issued order No. 282/1 of March 14, 2020 on early vacations in schools and universities. With regard to the above, we inform you that starting from March 16, 2020, AUCA will be closed for quarantine for a period of 3 weeks.

We also inform you that spring break is extended until March 28, 2020. Starting from March 30, 2020, the University will move to a distance learning mode until subsequent notifications.

Classes will be conducted online according to the schedule set for the current semester without the presence of students and teachers on campus.

At the moment, preparations are undergoing to switch to the distance learning mode. Detailed information and instructions for the transition will be provided shortly.

In the conditions of an unstable situation in the world, we ask students not to leave the territory of the country and the city, to cancel non-urgent and optional trips. When a student or an employee crosses the border, if the relevant requirements are established, the citizen must comply with the quarantine regulations. In the case of home quarantine, the conditions set by the Ministry of Health must be observed: http://www.med.kg/ru/koronavirus/613-trebovaniya-k-usloviyam-prozhivaniya-dlya-organizatsii-domashnego-karantina.html
