This study describes the contemporary educational methods of Mongolian nomads from chosen sample locations of the Hangai mountains. It has been completed on the basis of three field research trips conducted in these locations. Recordings of guided interviews and notes based upon involved observation serve as the source material for this study. Mongolian culture is at a turning point, as it is influenced by many elements of the world of Western civilization as well as by modern technologies; these latter are becoming a part of the nomad's daily life to an ever greater extent. These elements are revealed through the comparison of past and contemporary educational methods, children's games and the recollections of elder nomads. It also reveals itself in the comparison of past and contemporary educational institutions. Nevertheless, traditional culture and certain aspects of ethno pedagogy still remain very much alive. It is largely the elders who regard these traditions with much esteem and try to pass them down to younger generations.
