Formation of information and communicative competence of students in educator-supervisor’s work

Abstract

Abstract. We consider the role of a supervisor in a higher educational institution. The delay in the maturation of young people observed in recent decades makes this work relevant especially in the first years of higher education. The work of the supervisor in the student group on the formation of information and communication competence should include the study of the emotional and cognitive sphere of students, the peculiarities of their interpersonal relationships and monitoring of the psychological state of the collective and individual. An important part of the supervisor's work is the choice of approaches to the formation of a student team, which often unites representatives of different nationalities and different cultural traditions. The key direction is the diagnosis of the psychological atmosphere in the student team. Examples of diagnostic tests that are simple and accessible for use in the practice of an educator-supervisor are given. The methods that can be used in the supervisor’s educational work are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the need for close cooperation with specialists of specialized departments of pedagogy and psychology, providing substantial professional advice in solving these problems. The work of the educator-supervisor, aimed at the formation of information and communication competence of students, contributes to the process of adaptation to new living conditions, which ultimately leads to an improvement in the quality of education and further successful implementation in professional activities.
