Currently, the admission and training of citizens of the People's Republic of China is organized in accordance with the order of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Belarus dated July 29, 2021 No. 577, the Rules for the admission of persons for higher education of the II level, approved by the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus dated February 2, 2012 No. 110 and the Procedure for Admission of Persons for Obtaining Higher Education of the II Stage, Ensuring the Obtainment of a Master's Degree at the Educational Establishment "Polessky State University". The term of study for each program is indicated on the official website of the university in the "Master course program" section. Students can get acquainted with the schedule of classes on the official website of the university (https://www.polessu.by/ ).
In order to ensure the quality of the learning process and the acquisition of knowledge that meets modern requirements of higher education, modern tools of informatization of the learning process have been involved and used:
- The timetable of training sessions was made with the use of information technologies, taking into account the appeals and interests of students, while strictly complying with the requirements of the educational standard for each specialty.
- The educational process was conducted with the use of corporate platforms "Moodle" (https://moodle.polessu.by/ ) and Microsoft Teams. These platforms have proven their effectiveness and are actively used in the educational process of Polessky State University for a long time. The platforms allow for high-quality online meetings, collaborate on documents, plan and control tasks, demonstrate presentations, conduct surveys and exercise other forms of control. The platforms provide unlimited access to educational and methodological materials on the disciplines of the curriculum, library funds, the possibility of conducting intermediate and ongoing certification of students in academic disciplines. In the process of teaching Chinese students, the university provided lectures, practical, seminars, intermediate and current control, as well as individual and collective consultations in a format convenient for students.
- During the entire period of study, students had the opportunity to study independently the teaching materials for the studied disciplines. All disciplines are provided with teaching aids that contain theoretical presentations on all sections of the program, methods of practical exercises, tests for self-monitoring of knowledge and other materials. The University library provides access to the resources of various publishers, including the collection of world open access publishers (section "Open Access Internet Resources": https://goo.su/uiZgLc).
The following measures have been implemented to improve the quality of learning:
1. The use of a rating system. In accordance with the Regulations "On the rating system of knowledge assessment in the Educational Establishment "Polessky State University" from 30.01.2020 the progress of students in disciplines is assessed during the current (modular) control and ongoing assessment. Current (modular) knowledge control is designed for regular and systematic testing of students' knowledge during classes and on the results of students' independent work. It is carried out during a semester after the study of relevant topics. Current (modular) control is carried out in the form of written tests, while the current certification is an exam in the sessional period in the discipline.
2. Monitoring the assimilation of knowledge in the interactive virtual learning environment Moodle. To conduct lectures on the basis of this platform, the material is presented in the format of interactive lectures with sequential control of the assimilation of the material (until the passed part of the material is mastered, the master's student will not be able to continue studying the material). To control the implementation of practical, seminar and laboratory work, separate tasks are attached to each topic (calculation tasks, cases, matrix, statistical, etc. types of analysis, graphic material, etc.), which students need to complete in order to consolidate the topic. Each assignment is checked by the teacher. Grades form a summary sheet, on the basis of which the final grade is set.
3. For each examination discipline, the teacher sets control points (written test papers, compilation of business plans, solving a set of calculation problems, etc.). Grades for completed assignments are entered by the teacher in the checklist, on the basis of which a grade is derived that determines the progress of the student during the semester (current control).
4. Research practice of master students takes place at the university under the supervision of a teacher, has a practical orientation and includes a comparative analysis of industries of the People's Republic of China, enterprises of respective industries and subjects of industry infrastructure.
5. Conditions have been created for interaction on a permanent basis between students, on the one hand, and supervisors of master's theses, teachers of disciplines, employees of the Department of International Relations of the University, on the other hand, in the form of individual and group counseling, tutoring, conversations.
6. The defense of the dissertation is conducted at the University in accordance with the Regulations on the current and final attestation of students in the Educational Establishment "Polessky State University".
