📌On February 17, Cohort ll Community of Practice (CoP) Cascade sessions have been launched across Uzbekistan. More than 350 Regional Peer Mentors (RPMs) conduct CoP sessions with more than 5000 Mentees through April 2023. The weekly CoP sessions serve as a forum where RPMs facilitate meetings with Mentees to enhance each other’s professional development by sharing resources and teaching strategies.
🖇️Prior to starting the CoP sessions, last year RPMs successfully finished 60 hours of a professional development cascading course based on TESOL International Association's The 6 Principles for Exemplary Teaching of English Learners and George Mason University's Teaching English Through English materials. RPMs also successfully took part in online Training of Mentors (ToM) workshops conducted in the beginning of February throughout Uzbekistan to prepare for the RPM- Mentee Cascading sessions.
✨Congratulations on the start of Cohort ll CoP and good luck on the teacher's professional development endeavor!

🎯One’s Destination is never a Place, but a Journey Toward a New Way of Seeing Things
✅Faculty Enrichment Program (FEP) Fellow Malikajon Fayzieva from Bukhara State University is currently being hosted by the University of Arkansas. She has been observing courses on, Curriculum Development and Instructional Planning etc.
📌Malikajon says: “Studying abroad is about experiencing a foreign country — and the most beautiful and important part of a country’s culture is its people. I was amazed by the culture of American people when I had lunch in an American family. Also, I was excited when the University of Arkansas gave me a new bicycle to travel around. For me it is a new concept - walking and cycling are the best ways to get around a city!”
🔸Malikajon has also attended the International Students and Scholars team and events, such as ICT and Conversation Club – where she enjoys sharing about her culture and learning about the cultures of other international students and scholars.

🎯Building Sustainability in STEM through UniCEN Exchanges
🔸“Sharing knowledge occurs when people are genuinely interested in helping one another develop new capacities for action; it is about creating learning processes,” says Akmal Safarov.
👨🏻🏫Akmal is an Associate Professor of the Samarkand State University’s Institute of Engineering Physics (IEP). Through UniCEN project Akmal worked with Professor Michael Short from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on collecting, processing, and analyzing information about radiation, pressure, gravity, and air composition.
🔖Akmal uses his experience, gained during the UniCEN project, to mentor students. One of his students, Nafisa Rahmonova, works on her UniSat project and studies electronics, programming, and 3D modeling under Akmal’s supervision. She uses one of the UniCEN-acquired 3D printers, which is housed in the Nuclear Physics and Astronomy Laboratory of IEP, as a key component of her studies.

🎯A journey toward a new way of seeing things
✅ FEP Fellow Bahriddin Gapporov from Namangan State University is currently being hosted by the University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire – where he feels at home as he connects with academic staff and student organizations, learns about the best food in town, and does one of his favorite sports – rock climbing.
🔖As Bahriddin notes, heavy snow and cold weather of Wisconsin haven't kept him from enjoying the university life to the fullest. Thanks to class observation and professors' support, Bahriddin learns with the latest methods and practices in use, not to mention a great many spectacular events he has been actively partaking in!
📝Besides methodological and cultural support, he was given a personal office. Bahriddin says: “This simple act of paying positive attention to people has a great deal to do with productivity.” He continues: “FEP is an opportunity to see something new, and to see something in a new way”.
