The annual national award of publication activity ‘Choice of Russian universities – 2024’ defines original, relevant and methodically designed digital courses that have proved themselves at the federal level in the real educational process. Content networking demonstrates, through objective digital traces of users on the Yurait educational platform, how much demand there is for the content of a particular academic school.
In 2024, Kuban State University’s digital courses and textbooks were used in its educational process by 26,129 students, 2,060 teachers and 942 universities and colleges.
‘The indicator of digital activity by course speaks about the high level of the university’s teaching staff, as well as about the methodological elaboration and relevance of its educational programmes, which is especially important as a reference point for applicants and their parents,’ the award organisers noted.
The creative contribution of the winner of the personal nomination – Valery Kasyanov, Dean of the Faculty of Journalism and Head of the Department of Russian History, was separately noted: his textbooks were used by 10,498 students.
