Адаптивність у теорії здоров'язбереження та валеологічній освіті

Abstract

Adaptive technologies are important tools of modern education, which allow flexibly adjusting the materials of educational disciplines to the needs of students and educational conditions without loss of quality. The quality of education is related to the level of competence formation of graduates. In order to meet the requirements of the state higher education standards, graduates of Ukrainian higher education institutions must develop valeological competence, which will allow them to preserve their health and, if necessary, restore it. The aim of the study was to determine the limits of adaptability of valeological disciplines in the system of Ukrainian higher education. The materials of the study were the curriculum of the discipline "Health Pedagogy", which has been taught since 2019 at the Ukrainian Engineering Pedagogics Academy (Kharkiv city). The scientific publications of other Ukrainian researchers, who deal with the theory and practice of formation of valeological competence among students of higher education institutions of Ukraine, were also studied. It was established that adaptive technologies are used both in the content and in the forms of teaching valeological disciplines. A sign of the successful adaptation of the discipline to the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic and war is the opportunity to form valeological competence in students at a sufficient level, despite the need to switch to distance and mixed learning. Other signs of adaptability are the ability to teach the discipline to students of full-time, evening and correspondence forms of education, to change the requirements for the levels of competence formation for bachelors and masters, for inclusive and gifted students. The content of the topics of the disciplines can be adapted to the conditions of the time, which was demonstrated by the example of the topic of providing emergency care in critical conditions of the discipline "Health Pedagogy". The limitations of adaptability are the prohibition to violate the principles of evidence-based medicine and the confidentiality of information received from students by teachers of valeological disciplines. The value of the adaptability of valeological disciplines lies in the possibility of supplementing the general theory of adaptation.
