“By educators for educators” – an introduction to a GDR education television project for teachers (1970–1982)

ABSTRACTThe GDR series “Von Pädagogen für Pädagogen” (“By Educators for Educators”), which addressed GDR educators, was established in 1970 and then broadcast in this form for 13 years at approximately monthly intervals. The article presented here locates the programme within the GDR’s continuing education landscape and endeavours to reconstruct the origins and further development of the programme. It offers a valuable insight into the GDR’s education and training system, as the production of the programme took place in a spirit of cooperation, but also against a background of tension between the Ministry of National Education, the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences (APW), the Central Institute for Continuing Education (ZIW), and the GDR schools (in their function as both co-producers and recipients). It illustrates that the format was strongly influenced by ministerial guidelines but at the same time had to face the judgement of the teachers regarding its practical relevance in order to fulfil the intended function: a continuing education beyond the organised events. It is furthermore shown that the two institutions entrusted with the organisation (first the APW, then the ZIW) contributed their own perspectives and thus cannot be reduced to the role of executors of ministry wishes. The result of the cooperation was a series of broadcasts that presented a – scientifically based – ideal image of GDR education, but at the same time also used the feedback of practitioners for optimisation and can thus be classified as documentation of educational ideals that were accepted (but not necessarily implemented) through practice.

OVERCOMING THE ANXIETY OF SCHOOLCHILDREN IN THE PROCESS OF DISTANCE LEARNING

The article describes the theoretical and practical problem of increasing the anxiety of schoolchildren in the context of distance learning. The authors consider the theoretical foundations for defining and overcoming the anxiety of schoolchildren, which causes psychological imbalance and destroys the holistic nature of the psychological and pedagogical impact on the consciousness of students. In modern research on anxiety, diagnosis is carried out through personal contact or online. However, the forced social distance made these methods unacceptable. This requires new approaches to the study of anxiety on a pedagogical and psychological basis. The article highlights the results of a pedagogical experiment, within the framework of which the research hypothesis is confirmed, which is that in conditions of distance learning, schoolchildren exhibit school isolation anxiety, which can be detected using markers and corrected using certain methods. During the pedagogical experiment, positive results were achieved in reducing anxiety in the observed groups. Along with this, a relationship was found between a decrease in anxiety and an increase in academic performance. The proposed methodology for identifying and correcting anxiety at school is proposed for use in the educational process in the process of teaching any academic disciplines. The article publishes the results of the scientific project "Psychological and pedagogical support of distance learning of schoolchildren in order to reduce anxiety" (IRN IRN AR09562184.), implemented by the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Kazakhstan and funded by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan in 2021.

Effectiveness of distance and online education services in the context of the coronavirus pandemic: experience of empirical sociological research in Ukraine

The article presents the results of three empirical sociological studies conducted by the Educational Service of the Commissioner for Human Rights of Ukraine, the Institute of Information Technologies and Teaching Tools of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine and the State Service for the Quality of Education in Ukraine. The research is of a search nature, it was conducted using the method of spontaneous sampling among Internet users. Despite the weak representativeness, due to the omission of some significant categories of respondents in the course of the research, this method of sampling is quite appropriate in the context of limited physical accessibility in the context of quarantine measures associated with the spread of corona virus. The main purpose of the presented research was to determine the range of problems associated with the forced transition of the secondary and higher education system to distance learning.

Старт «Програми вдосконалення викладання у вищій освіті України»: огляд Українсько-британського форуму «Досконалість викладання і навчання у вищій освіті»

The Ukrainian-British Forum "Excellence in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education" took place on December 4, 2020 in Kyiv and was dedicated to summarizing previous joint Ukrainian-British educational projects, including the Leadership Development Program of Ukrainian universities and the launch of the Higher Education Teaching Improvement Program Of Ukraine. The Forum was organized by the Institute of Higher Education of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine and the British Council in Ukraine.

Emphasis was placed on taking the necessary concrete steps to establish a national platform for the exchange of experience in teaching and improving educational practices and the development of learning competencies between the British and Ukrainian sides. Nurturing the quality of higher education requires both the preservation of the national educational tradition in its best manifestations, and careful and careful adoption of world models of successful institutionalization of the experience of achieving high results in education. The improvement of standards of professional development of the main subjects of education in Ukraine should be a key factor for change at the next stage of educational reforms in Ukraine. Topics such as key stakeholders in education reform, institutional quality assurance of education, qualifications framework, expert experience, individual trajectory of teacher development, departure from the state-level diploma monopoly in Ukraine, etc. were also discussed. A significant expansion of opportunities for the creation of non-governmental – both private and branches of foreign higher education institutions in Ukraine – was announced. An important indicator of these changes should be the refusal from the monopoly of state-standard diplomas as evidence of higher education at the appropriate level.

Шляхи, форми та методи впровадження медіаосвіти в навчально-виховний процес

In April 2016, the Presidium of the National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine approved a new version of the Concept for the introduction of media education in Ukraine. The purpose of the Concept is to create a system of media education, which should become the foundation of humanitarian security, development and consolidation of civil society, combating external information aggression, comprehensively prepare children and youth for safe and effective interaction with the modern media system, form media literacy and media to their age, individual and other features. The article, based on the analysis of domestic and foreign scientific sources, systematizes theoretical and practical developments of domestic and foreign scientists on the most effective ways, forms and methods of media education. It is established that there are three common ways of introducing media education in the educational process: integrated (through traditional subjects); optional (creation of a network of circles, sections, clubs); special (creation of special courses and special courses). One of the forms of integration of media education is the introduction of media courses. Popular are the creation of television or cinematic mini-scripts, class lectures, role-playing games on the material of various media. It was found that the organization of media centers, media clubs, film clubs and photo laboratories can be considered innovative forms of media literacy. The classifications of media education methods by L. Zaznobina, M. Matviychuk, L. Masterman, S. Penzin, O. Fedorov are considered. It is established that one of the most effective methods of media education researchers consider interactive: trainings, moderations, program training, case method (analysis of practical situations), business and role-playing games, discussions, creative problem solving method, project method. The choice of such methods is due to the possibility of their integration into individual disciplines. They provide an opportunity to intensify the process of understanding, learning and creative application of knowledge and help increase the motivation and involvement of participants in the process of joint problem solving, creative search.
