Topicality

According to the analytical data of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan today in civil universities the ratio of students by levels of education is distributed as follows: 90% of bachelors, 9% of masters and less than 1% of PhDs. While the global trend of the ratio corresponds to 54% of bachelors, 43% of masters and 3% of PhDs. At the same time, there are 662 scientists per one million population in the RoK in 2018, compared to 994 in Ukraine, 1235 in China, 1340 in Georgia, 2130 in Bulgaria, 2851 in the Russian Federation, and 4256 in the USA.

At the same time, there has been a sharp decline in the number of scientific personnel since Kazakhstan gained independence. For example, while in 1990 the number of scientific personnel was 50626, in 2018 the figure was 22378. Static data clearly demonstrate that the RK has the lowest indicator of the number of scientists per capita. That is, over the past thirty years there has been a persistent trend of decline in the intellectual potential of the country, although the state is taking measures aimed at the activation of scientific activity through grant funding projects, PCF, "Zhas ғalym", competitions "Best Researcher", increasing the number of grants PhD, etc. All this indicates the crisis state of science as a social institution, and the consequences of this crisis are reflected in the development of industry, business and the economy of the whole state. One of the ways out of the crisis is to popularize science among the general public, schoolchildren, students, the business sector and the state.

Objective

The aim of the project is a scientific-theoretical substantiation of the process of popularization of science in children and youth environment on the basis of identified effective channels of perception by modern technological means of communication to stimulate their interest in scientific activity
