The purpose of the study. Modern education is undergoing significant changes. Artificial intelligence technologies are being introduced into the educational practice of universities, including pedagogical universities. These technologies have great opportunities. However, there is a need for a deeper study of the influence and role of artificial intelligence not only in the educational process of the university as a whole, but also in the specifics of teaching individual disciplines, including programming for future teachers of computer science The problem of using artificial intelligence in teaching students of pedagogical universities is urgent. The article is devoted to the substantiation of the role of artificial intelligence in the process of teaching programming to students, future teachers of computer science and the study of the possibility of its effective application in the real educational process.Materials and Methods. The analysis of scientific publications in the field of using artificial intelligence in the educational process of higher education institution and the analysis of scientific and methodological literature on teaching programming to students of pedagogical universities were performed. Artificial intelligence tools used in professional software development have been analyzed. The experiment of using the online development environment Replit with artificial intelligence technology in Python programming course for students of pedagogical university was carried out. A questionnaire survey of students at the beginning and after the completion of the course was carried out.The results of the study. Traditionally, the author's e-learning course developed in the Moodle environment, programming simulator with automated solution checking, IDLE Python and online compilers are used in teaching programming to 1st year students of Krasnoyarsk State Pedagogical University. These learning tools were supplemented with Replit online development environment with artificial intelligence technology. According to the results of the experiment it is shown that the use of online development environment Replit with artificial intelligence technology in teaching programming to students of pedagogical university helps in writing and debugging code, makes the course less complex, this is confirmed by the results of questionnaire survey of students, also showing that most students give their preference to this development environment. At the end of the students' mastering of the programming course there is a significant growth in self-assessment of the programming level, which is confirmed by the learning results.Conclusion. The role of artificial intelligence in the process of teaching students programming can be significant and useful both for the instructor and the students. In particular, the use of artificial intelligence helps the student in writing and debugging code, simplifies the process of explaining to the instructor the ways of algorithm development and program compilation. The example of the integrated online environment Replit, which has built-in artificial intelligence, shows its possibilities for effective teaching students programming.As a result, the article confirms the need for further research and development of methodological support for the successful integration of artificial intelligence in the process of teaching students of pedagogical universities in the field of programming

The purpose of the article is to analyze the current research, development and application of knowledge maps for visualizing heterogeneous, disparate, and often hidden knowledge in universities, and discuss the features of the development of maps in higher education institutions.Materials and methods. The market for intellectual services is actively developing in Russia and worldwide, and the methods of express assessment of human capital are extremely relevant. The intellectual capital of universities is one of the most important assets in the dynamic market of educational and consulting services. Research institutes and universities are modern centers of knowledge and technology, where lecturers and researchers accumulate, transfer and produce knowledge, multiplying and replenishing explicit and implicit intellectual assets. Knowledge management helps educational and research organizations to solve the problems of managing intellectual capital, gain a competitive advantage, improve management efficiency, and reduce risks caused by the concentration of knowledge among a small number of experts. The article is devoted to the problem of analyzing new opportunities for promoting and monetizing the intellectual capital of universities through visualization and knowledge mapping. Knowledge maps of university lecturers are a relevant tool to improve the quality of research and marketing communications, as well as positioning in the market of consulting and intellectual services. Knowledge maps of educational institutions and research teams are of particular research interest, since there is no characteristic business desire to protect knowledge from transfer and reproduction in this field.The result of the study is a typology of knowledge maps, which helps to identify patterns, structures and elements necessary for the development of knowledge bases in universities. The authors based on the results of a pilot study give examples of specific maps. Based on an analysis of existing approaches to the typology of knowledge maps and Bloom’s taxonomy, a hierarchical model reflecting different levels of understanding when interpreting and using knowledge maps was developed. The main research methodology relies on fairly well developed and widely used in the world practice knowledge engineering methods – knowledge extraction, structuring and formalisation. A separate analysis of potential consumers (or stakeholders) of knowledge maps was carried out based on stakeholder theory.Conclusions. The article discusses the methodological aspects of the development and features of the practical application of knowledge maps in higher educational institutions. Knowledge analysis makes it possible to develop the organizational “memory” of a university, collecting strategic knowledge and identifying critical knowledge, and generally enriches the knowledge structure. Knowledge maps as a category of special visual tools used to analyze the knowledge and competencies of university lecturers can improve the process of managing employee competencies, management decision making, and thereby reducing cognitive load. Such maps increase the image and marketing performance of a university in the educational services market, and make the professional landscape of knowledge more transparent.

The purpose of the study is a scientific justification and experimental verification of the effectiveness of using web-quest technology in the process of forming flexible skills of future lecturers in a higher educational institution.Rapid socio-economic development, informatization of all spheres of human activity determine the need for appropriate changes in the education system. Today, a modern lecturer requires not only basic psychological and pedagogical knowledge and skills, but also communication skills, responsibility, the ability to work in a team, resolve conflicts, and think critically and other flexible skills responsible for efficiency and high productivity, contributing to professional development and self-realization. In this regard, education in higher educational institutions should focus not only on the development of professional special skills (hard skills), but also on the formation of flexible skills (soft skills), since they are universal, updated over time and become increasingly important in the professional activity of a lecturer. There are quite a lot of technologies that contribute to the formation of flexible skills of students, one of which is the innovative technology of the web-quest, which, thanks to its unique form, content, teaching and control methods, structured information content, seems to be as effective as possible. Thus, the problem of purposeful formation of flexible skills among future lecturers, the search for the necessary mechanisms and resources for this, and the study of the potential of the web-quest determine the relevance of the research.Materials and methods: in the course of the study, methods of studying and analyzing psychological, pedagogical and methodological literature were used, summarizing the experience of using web-quests in the educational process of the university. The methodological basis of the study was a set of approaches: personality-oriented, systemic, activity-based, competence-based, interdisciplinary and reflective. Results: the author’s definitions of the concepts “flexible skills of future lecturer” and “web-quest” are presented, the flexible skills of a modern lecturer are characterized, the specifics, structure and methodology of conducting a web-quest, its impact on the purposeful formation of flexible skills are described in detail, an example of a web-quest “The essence of professional competence of a lecturer”, developed and tested in the work with students, is given of the training area 44.03.01 Pedagogical education.The practical significance of the research lies in the fact that its results, as well as the content and information resources of the proposed web-quest, can be used in the practice of higher pedagogical education.

The purpose of the study is to develop a model for developing competencies in the field of information security for bachelors in the field of Applied Information Science. The relevance of this problem is determined by modern requirements for enterprise employees and, accordingly, the process of their training. Demand for qualified employees who have skills not only in their field of activity, but also in areas relevant to the information society, such as information culture and the ability to provide an information enterprise.Materials and research methods. To achieve this goal, a competency-based approach was used to activate the process of developing the readiness and ability of subjects to make independent decisions, express independent judgments and at the same time participate in a common cause, create relationships with other participants in joint activities. The following methods were used in the work: analysis of pedagogical, scientific, technical and methodological literature on the research problem, systematization and generalization and visual presentation of the results.Results. As part of the study, a tabular model for the formation of competencies in the field of information security was developed based on the competency-based approach. The article reflects a model for developing competence in the field of information security using the example of additional professional competencies - 2 (the ability to take part in project management, organizing IT infrastructure and information security management) in the process of studying the discipline “Information Security”. The component blocks of the developed model are described: diagnostic, motivational, theoretical, practical and control-analytical. In accordance with the stages of this process of developing competencies and the tasks to be solved at each stage, various innovative forms and methods are presented. The results of the paper show that the process of developing competencies in the field of information security among bachelors in the “Applied Information Science” area is complex and multifaceted. Even though bachelors of applied computer science will not perform the same job functions as information security specialists, their training should be sufficient to enable them to design and build safe and reliable information systems. The pedagogical search is not completed, but it has acquired the necessary boundaries, unique centers of crystallization around which the academic discipline is designed.Conclusion. We can conclude that training specialists in the field of information security is an urgent task of modern society, the solution of which is dependent on scientific justification and identification of a set of necessary competencies that a modern specialist should have. The components of competencies in the field of information security that we have identified, the generalized tabular model of these competencies that we have proposed, as well as the stages, methods and forms of developing these competencies among bachelors of Applied Information Science require additional study. The conducted research allows us to outline ways to solve the multifaceted and complex problem of forming students’ competencies in the field of information security, taking into account modern requirements for the training of specialists not only in the field of computer science and information technology.

Purpose. The article discusses the use of mobile technologies in teaching mathematics to engineering students. The relevance of the paper is due to the need to introduce new methods and means of teaching in connection with the increasing integration of mobile technologies into all areas of life, the interests and characteristics of the new, networked generation of students, the limited possibilities of using innovative methods and means of teaching mathematics due to the conduct of classes outside the computer lab.Materials and methods. The peculiarity of this study is that the integration of mobile technologies into the process of teaching mathematics is considered as a system of three components: technological, informational and social. The analysis of these components made it possible to obtain answers to research questions: where and how mobile devices should be used when studying mathematics; what mobile applications will provide the most effective learning of the discipline; how to organize the educational process using mobile technologies to increase interest and motivation in learning mathematics.Results. The main reasons for the lack of interest in studying mathematics and low motivation include the high level of abstraction of the discipline and the characteristics of the modern, networked generation of students. Analysis of scientific sources and our own observations made it possible to identify such characteristics as problems with understanding complex and long text, the ability to easily read from a small screen and process information in parallel, the choice of sound and images instead of text, the desire for short-term learning and instant results, and attitude towards mobile devices as vital items. Taking into account the interests and wishes of students, and relying on the didactic capabilities of mobile technologies, the paper proposes mobile applications for studying various topics of a mathematical course, assignment options that help increase motivation, develop group work skills and digital literacy. The importance and effectiveness of using social services for visualizing mathematical concepts and calculation schemes, as well as the WhatsApp messenger for instant messaging between students and receiving timely individual and group consultation from a lecturer, is shown. An important characteristic of the messenger is the presence of video communication.Conclusion. The analysis of scientific literature, the study of the requirements of employers and the interests of the modern, networked generation of students, indicated the need to integrate mobile technologies into the process of teaching mathematics. Working with different groups in terms of both the level of mathematical knowledge and the level of proficiency in mobile technologies made it possible to identify and outline ways to solve the main issues of using mobile technologies in teaching mathematics. With limited time to study mathematics, it is difficult for a lecturer to allocate additional time to present the capabilities and effectiveness of mobile applications. A solution to this issue may be to include a section “Mobile Technologies” in a course related to the study of information and communication technologies. It is noted that group work also contributes to a more effective study of the capabilities and techniques of working with mobile applications.

Research objective. The main objectives of developing a module for automatic assessment of students’ papers based on the Russian grading scale system are:– Increased grading efficiency: the automatic system can process a larger number of papers in less time than a lecturer, reducing the time spent on checking;– Grading objectivity: the automated system is not subject to bias and other human factors, which ensures more objective grading of papers;– Standardization of grading: the automated system provides a uniform approach to grading, making it more transparent and comparable;– Reduced workload for lecturers: freeing lecturers from the routine work of checking papers allows them to devote more time to individual work with students.Materials and methods. Various methods can be used to develop a module for automatic assessment of students’ work, such as:Machine learning techniques: these techniques allow the module to learn from a set of examples where lecturers have already assessed students’ papers and automatically grade new papers.Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods: these methods allow the module to understand the meaning of text and evaluate it against given criteria.Expert systems methods: these methods allow the module to utilize the knowledge of experts in assessing students’ papers. For this project, we have chosen a combination of Levenshtein and Jaro index algorithms based on the method of assessing students’ knowledge in the Russian system.Results. The following main results were obtained in the course of this research. The module of automatic evaluation of student papers has been successfully developed and implemented on the basis of the Russian system of evaluation scales. Test evaluations of papers showed high accuracy of the module’s predictions and reliability of its work. Comparison of the module with manual assessment confirmed its ability to give comparable results. The module proved to be useful for lecturers, providing them with the ability to quickly and objectively assess students’ papers. Integration of the module with existing learning management systems facilitates its implementation in the educational environment. All the obtained results testify to the high efficiency and prospectivity of the developed module.Conclusion. As a result of this work, a module for automatic evaluation of students’ papers based on the Russian system of evaluation scales was developed and implemented. The main results of the work are that the module has been successfully tested and demonstrated high accuracy and reliability in the assessment of papers. The module has also demonstrated its usefulness for lecturers, providing them with an opportunity to quickly and objectively assess students’ papers. Due to its integration with existing learning management systems, the module can be easily implemented into the educational environment. In general, the results of the work confirm the effectiveness and prospects of using automatic assessment of students’ papers based on the Russian system of assessment scales.

Purpose of the study: to consider and implement in practice a system for displaying content on screens of different resolutions and orientations in relation to an educational institution, using both a pure Smart TV (built-in browser of modern TV) and a player connected to Digital Signage screens. In system engineering, the main emphasis (and, as a result, the key task) is on the absence of duplication of content for different types of output screens (including interactive touchscreen kiosks), which is especially important because the implemented system will be built on free, open-source technologies and integrated into the current university website, which no other proprietary Digital Signage software system can offer.Materials and methods: the study uses different methods of transformation and output of content, but adaptation methods based on cascading style sheets (CSS) are mainly used. The experience of foreign programmers working with adaptive layouts for the web and operating their own blogs was studied (in the “Reference” section). Compromise methods for displaying graphic images and video materials are considered and proposed based on the experience gained during testing of the prototype system.Results: development of a system for displaying content on multi-format screens, requiring minimal subsequent support and intervention from the administrator responsible for filling it with content. An analysis of some potential solutions and their compatibility was carried out, taking into account browser support for CSS3 and HTML5 standards, and working solutions were selected that can be used in the design of individual templates for displaying content in hypertext format and CSS designs (rules) that work for the purpose of the study. The article compares approaches to designing adaptive templates for displaying web content in HTML (hypertext) format. The basic principles are considered under which content intended primarily for a university website can, without a third-party administrator (and also, in some cases, with minimal intervention) be displayed on corporate TV and touchscreen kiosks of universities thanks to the use of cascading style sheets (CSS) and relative units of measurement (vh, vw, vmin, vmax) and tags introduced in HTML5. The article also discusses how to level out the nuances associated with different resolutions of graphic images and screen orientation.Conclusion: the final paragraphs of the article conclude on the nuances of the functioning of the developed system, the effectiveness of which directly depends on methods of implementation and technologies used, chosen and discussed in the article. The implementation of the system will increase the awareness of students of an educational institution about events (announced or conducted), and will allow the system administrator to increase work efficiency by publishing and administering content only in “one window” (for example, on the university website), and the developed output template and/or CSS rules will display it on the internal screens, maintaining readability and perception of information. The developed and tested methods can be used by programmers, working in educational institutions.

Purpose of the study. This article analyzes the contribution of network human capital to economic dynamics and innovation through econometric modeling based on data for 70 countries for 2020–2021. The main goal of the study is to analyze the relationship between network human capital, economic development and innovation activity.Materials and methods. The present study is based on feedback methodology. On the one hand, the development of human capital is a strategic factor in sustainable economic development. On the other hand, economic resources that increase under development conditions are invested in human capital. The authors have developed a two-stage method for assessing the contribution of network human capital to economic dynamics and the development of innovation. At the first stage, the influence of human capital on the factors of innovative development, assessed by the indexes of the Global Innovation Index (GII), was assessed. At the second stage, an assessment of the contribution of these factors to GDP per employee was modeled. The method was implemented through the development of econometric models that allow assessing the contributions of network human capital to economic dynamics based on the profile of the national economy and assessing the dependence of GDP per employee on the employment structure of the national economy.Results. Based on the results of econometric modeling, the impact of human capital accumulation on the innovative development of the economy was assessed. Statistically significant relationships between: an increase in human capital and the acceleration of the pace of development of new technologies and the knowledge economy; development of creative activity; increasing innovative ties have been identified and substantiated. Based on the modeling results, we empirically assessed, firstly, the contribution of network human capital to GDP per employee; secondly, the increasing contribution of new industries to GDP per employee and the decreasing contribution of traditional industries (using the example of agriculture); thirdly, the more significant contribution of those employed in IT compared to the contribution of those employed in education and healthcare to GDP per employee.Conclusion. The results of the modeling proved that network human capital influences economic growth and innovative development through two mechanisms. Firstly, network human capital is directly involved in the production processes of the platform economy as a factor of production. In this sense, the accumulation of network human capital directly increases aggregate output. Secondly, the accumulation of network human capital has a positive effect on classical factors of production and, in particular, contributes to technological progress.

Purpose. Modeling systems and programming platforms provide ample opportunities for the use of statistical tools in research activities. Since the normal distribution is one of the most common distribution laws, the criterion for checking the sample for normality is in high demand among statistical assessment tools, among which the Epps-Pulley test has the status as one of the most powerful tests to check the deviation of the distribution from the normal one. There are a number of implementations of this test in the R and Python languages. However, this test is not implemented in one of the most popular Matlab modeling software. Thus, the purpose of this study is to develop a software implementation of the Epps-Pulley criterion in the Matlab environment and verify the correctness of the performed calculations.Materials and Methods. We implemented the calculation of Epps-Pulley statistics by two methods – classical, using cycles, and matrix-vector, using linear algebra operations. The classical method requires calculating the intermediate values necessary to obtain the criterion statistics using two independent cycles, the second cycle being a double one, in which one cycle is nested into the other. The matrix-vector method requires fewer code by performing calculations using linear algebra operations on matrices and vectors. We obtained critical statistical values for the sample size from 8 to 1000 observations with two-dimensional linear interpolation of tabular values. We used an approximation by a beta function of the third kind for a sample of over 1000 elements.Results. An assessment of the computational efficiency of the methods showed that the cyclic approach is about three times higher than the matrix-vector approach in terms of consumed time, which is presumably due to the processing of insignificant elements in triangular matrices when performing component-by-component operations. The correctness of the software implementation of the Epps-Pulley criterion was tested on several examples, which confirmed the compliance of the calculated values of the criterion statistics, as well as the critical values of statistics, with known data. We carried out a criterion statistical evaluation based on the empirical values of the error of the first kind. We obtained the error values correspondence to the specified significance levels. We performed comparative estimates of the Epps-Pulley test with the Anders-Darling and Shapiro-Wilk tests in terms of the criterion empirical power and tabulated the evaluation results. We published the software implementation of the Epps-Pulley test on the MATLAB Central Internet resource and for free use.Conclusion. We developed software implementation of the Epps-Pulley criterion as a new research tool that was previously unavailable in the Matlab modeling environment. We used the time spent on calculations to make a reasonable choice of the calculation algorithm for the criterion statistics. We confirmed correctness of the calculation algorithms by a set of selective checks and statistical estimates that showed the compliance with well-known theoretical provisions.

In this article, the author presents the methodology of organizing and conducting distance Olympiads in Korean as a second foreign language in the process of professional training of foreign language teachers.The purpose of the study is to examine specifics of second foreign language distance Olympiads organization in the context of professional training, main objectives of the Korean language Olympiad (increasing motivation, interest in learning Korean, exposure to Korean culture, etc.), and to analyze the main requirements for distance Olympiad tasks of the first round (tests), and tasks of the second round, which are aimed to identify the level of communication abilities. Interview, testing and observation are used as the main methods of research.Results. The methodology proposed by the author was tested in groups of 3–4 year students of Sarsen Amanzholov East Kazakhstan University (educational program 6B01703 foreign language: two foreign languages). The article presents analysis of the distance Olympiad’s results, examples of tasks for each round and the main criteria for evaluating the tasks. The requirements to the second foreign language Olympiad tasks implied: possibility of mass coverage of students with Olympiad tasks; compliance of the tasks with the curriculum; time limit; relying on the students’ experience, including their native language skills and abilities; increasing tasks complexity; variety of tasks forms and content, the tasks contents and novelty; problem nature tasks to stimulate students thinking, language guess; using authentic material for the Olympiad tasks; the use of local history and extralinguistic material. The general complexity of the tasks, and difficulties associated with the nature of the linguistic material were also taken into account.Conclusion. According to the results of the experimental work, the author comes to the following conclusion: the leading principle of organizing distance Olympiads assumes that the university faculty will be focused on the timely identification of the future teachers’ interest to the Korean language, their involvement in preparation for the Olympiad, thus forming their interest in Korean culture and language. Olympiad assignments should be creative so that students learn to find their own ways of solving problems and develop self-education skills. Participation in the Olympiad increases students’ learning motivation, broadens their horizons, and develops their ability to express their opinions. The variety of requirements to the work of participants makes the assessment of each member of the jury quite subjective, but the collective nature of the evaluation procedure ensures correctness and objectivity of the final decision, allows participants to familiarize with the results of their work and consider appeals after each round of the Olympiad participants.
