As part of CARCEIT’s Knowledge-Sharing Series, Postdoctoral Research Fellows Dr. Zhadyra Makhmetova and Dr. Laura Ibrayeva delivered capacity-building workshops at the Summer Research School held at K. Zhubanov Aktobe Regional University.
🔍 Systematic Literature Review (SLR)
On June 10, 2025, Dr. Zhadyra Makhmetova conducted an interactive session on “Systematic Literature Review.” She emphasised the value of SLR as a research method for identifying and refining research problems. She outlined its development across disciplines, including its emerging role in the Kazakhstani academic context. Participants explored the essential steps in conducting an SLR, learned how it differs from other review types (e.g., scoping reviews), and benefited from insights drawn from her own recent SLR publication experience.
📊 Bibliometric Analysis
On June 11, 2025, Dr. Laura Ibrayeva led a practical workshop on “Conducting a Bibliometric Analysis.” The session introduced Zhubanov University faculty and researchers to bibliometric methods for analysing research trends, scholarly collaboration, and emerging themes. Dr. Ibrayeva also shared findings from a bibliometric study on Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) as part of the ICEP project “Young Minds: Exploring the Role of Positive Early Childhood Education and Care in the Health and Well-being of Young Children in Kazakhstan,” led by Prof. Daniel Hernandez-Torrano (NUGSE). She further demonstrated how bibliometric tools can support institutional research strategy and development.
These workshops contributed to the development of research skills and the fostering of methodological innovation within the university context.
