05 Apr. 13:01The Dovletmammet Azady Turkmen National Institute of World Languages is hosting specialized professional development courses under the INSETT system for secondary school English teachers across Turkmenistan. This training is part of the "Enhancing English Language Learning in Central Asia" (AELLCA) educational project, implemented with the support of the British Council in collaboration with the Norwich Institute for Language Education (NILE) from the UK.
The 50-hour curriculum is designed to provide teachers with an in-depth understanding of modern pedagogical methods and advanced approaches to English language instruction. The training utilizes course materials specifically developed by the British Council and NILE, focusing on practical implementation within the classroom. The primary goal is to upgrade the teaching standards in Turkmenistan by aligning them with global best practices.
Upon successful completion of the program, participants will be awarded international certificates jointly issued by the British Council, NILE, and the D. Azady Institute.

On-the-Go Power: Japanese Engineers Develop Wireless In-Road Charging for Electric Vehicles
10 Oct. 08:10In a major leap for electric mobility, Honda R&D, alongside Taisei Corporation and Taisei Rotec, has unveiled an innovative dynamic wireless charging system that charges electric vehicles as they drive. By embedding compact energy-transmitting modules directly into the road surface, the system transfers power via a magnetic field to receivers mounted underneath moving vehicles. Designed to withstand heavy commercial transport up to 20 tons, real-world road testing is scheduled to begin in Japan in April 2027.
The technology eliminates the need for full road reconstruction, as modules can be integrated directly into milled asphalt layers. Aimed at boosting charging power up to 150 kW in future iterations, this infrastructure solution promise to significantly reduce grid pressure on traditional charging stations, particularly for logistics and commercial fleets.
