UNITY OF STUDYING UKRAINIAN AND LATIN LANGUAGES AS A BASIC COMPONENT FOR SUCCESSFUL LANGUAGE PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCE FORMATION OF MEDICAL WORKERS

The article is devoted to problematic issues of language training of future doctors and identifying the ways to overcome them. The purpose of the article is to analyze the effectiveness of traditional pedagogical technologies of professional language training of future medical workers, and to review main problems of language perception, typical difficulties and directions for changing teaching methodology in order to improve learning outcomes and to ensure their high quality. During the research the following tasks were solved: teaching methods were described, the analysis of the newest pedagogical technologies was made, and recommendations on improving teaching methods for language disciplines in higher medical educational institution (HMEI) were given. The author has analyzed functions and features of teaching methodology for Latin and Ukrainian languages as disciplines of the social-humanitarian cycle of HMEI that provide the language competence formation of future professionals. The changes occurring in the public life of Ukraine determine the search for new approaches and requirements for the training of highly qualified specialists. The main task of medical educational institutions is to create conditions for the development of the student’s personality, his professional speech, as one of the main components of professional competencies of the future medical worker. The material of the article will provide an opportunity to improve the methodology and practice in teaching these courses. Latin language has a special function in medical sphere; its knowledge provides communication for specialists not only within the country but also internationally. It is concluded that, despite the loss of its basic communicative function, Latin still has a significant historical, cultural and educational significance. The role of Latin, Ukrainian and foreign (English) languages deserves to be studied in further research not only being a factor in the formation of a specialist, but also for an educated and multicultural personality.

Причинно-следственный анализ проблем геометро-графической подготовки обучающихся технического вуза

This article discusses the prospects for applying cause-and-effect analysis - the Ishikawa diagram for visualizing the problems of geometric-graphic training of students of a technical university. The structure of the study using the diagram included the implementation of successive stages. At the first stage, an exhaustive list of problems affecting the level of geometric and graphic training at the university was compiled. At the second stage of the cause-and-effect analysis, problems (factors) were systematized according to semantic sections (logical blocks): employees and the student (person, human factor), material and technical base and educational environment (equipment and other means to ensure the educational process); educational technologies and organization of the educational process, means and technologies for assessing learning outcomes. The next stage included systematization and ranking of problems within logical partitions. This made it possible to identify in a simple and accessible form the most significant factors in the emergence of the problem under study at three levels. The implementation of the last three stages made it possible to complete the study with obtaining the final structure of the factors of the problem of a low level of geometric and graphic training of students. The result of the study was a graphical interpretation of the results of the cause-and-effect analysis. Thus, the possibility of using the diagram to identify the most significant cause-factors that affect the level of mastering the disciplines of the graphic cycle by students, as well as a means of visualizing the cause-and-effect analysis, is shown.

The article reveals the peculiarities of the implementation of modern approaches to the organization of independent work of future choreography specialists in the online format, based on the work experience of the teachers of the Berdyan State Pedagogical University. The application of the method of project activity in the disciplines of the professional cycle of student training, as well as such interactive methods as storytelling and scribing, is highlighted. It is noted that the practical-oriented approach, as one of the key types of projects, is characterized by a focus on solving social problems that reflect the interests of each participant or other persons. A research project is a type of independent scientific research that requires a clearly thought-out structure and selection of effective work methods, a defined goal, relevance for all its participants, as well as social significance. The information project is aimed at collecting information about any object or on a certain topic for the purpose of analysis, generalization and representation of information for a wide audience. A creative project assumes a free, sometimes unconventional approach to its implementation and presentation of results, usually does not have a clearly thought-out structure, it develops subject to the interests of project participants. It has been found that the use of the Moodle platform by a higher education institution promotes the activation of the internal potential of each teacher, who seeks and implements new and innovative technologies in his educational activities, which are based on practice-oriented learning of students and emphasize the creation of a comfortable student-centered environment. Also, special importance is attached to the mobility of the applicants, their choice of an individual learning trajectory, the formation of the key competence «learning throughout life» and the ability to independently carry out personal and professional reflection, the desire for self-improvement. Key words: practice-oriented preparing of future choreography specialists, independent work in the online format, project activity, modern approaches to the organization of independent work

No deterioration in function or volumetric parameters in elite athletes after SARS-CoV-2 infections compared to non-infected athletes: results from the ELITE cohort

Abstract Background/Introduction SARS-CoV-2 (subclinical) myocarditis has been demonstrated in up to 5% in athletes, and is currently a topic being intensively investigated. However, more subtle changes in function and volumetric parameters have been less well documented, especially in elite athletes, who perform at the highest levels of sports, with potentially the most outspoken adaptation. Purpose To determine differences in cardiac function and volumetric parameters using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in elite athletes recovered from a SARS-CoV-2 infection as compared to non-infected elite athletes (controls). Methods We included elite athletes from the ELITE (Evaluation of Lifetime Intensive Top-level sports and Exercise) cohort, who voluntary undergo cardiovascular pre-participation screenings, which includes cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). SARS-CoV-2 infection was diagnosed with a positive-PCR or antibody test (if unvaccinated). The primary outcome was the incidence of structural cardiac changes on CMR, defined as LV/RV BSA indexed-EDV (EDVi), LV/RV BSA indexed-ESV (ESVi), LV/RV EF, presence of pathological late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) (excluding hinge point fibrosis), and T1 times. Results We included 234 elite athletes, mean age 27 (±7), 39% female, with main athletic disciplines (≥10 hours/week) of cycling (24%), field hockey (13%), and water polo (12%). In total 69 elite athletes had documented SARS-CoV-2 infection, and 165 were documented as not exposed to SARS-CoV-2. The majority reported mild symptoms 61/69 (88%), 1/69 (1%) severe symptoms, and 7/69 (11%) no symptoms. Mean time between infection and CMR was 2.8 (±2) months. CMR showed no significant difference between elite athletes with SARS-CoV-2 and without (Table) in mean LVEDVi (117±19 vs 120±19 ml/m2, p=0.29), LVESVi (50.6±11 vs 53.2±11 ml/m2, p=0.12), LVEF (56.9% ±5 vs 55.8% ±5, p=0.14), RVEDVi (120±20 vs 122±19 ml/m2, p=0.56), RVESVi (54.5±11 vs 56.2±11 ml/m2, p=0.29), and RVEF (54.6% ±4 vs 53.9% ±5, p=0.23). In 4/69 (4.7%) vs 1/165 (1.3%) pathological non-ischemic pattern of myocardial LGE was present (≤20% of total LV mass), of which one athlete (1.2%) showed increased T1 time, all with no deterioration in right and left ventricle function and volumetric parameters (Figure) after SARS-CoV-2 infection. All athletes made a full recovery and returned to elite competitive sports. Conclusion(s) This cross-sectional study of elite athletes demonstrates that infection with SARS-CoV-2 is not associated with deterioration in cardiac function and volumetric parameters on CMR compared with non-infected athletes, also in the small subset of athletes with pathological LGE patterns after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Prospective studies with long-term follow-up are needed to establish whether intensive sports is associated with long-term cardiac deleterious effects in elite athletes exposed to SARS-CoV-2.

О проблемах математической подготовки будущих экономистов

This article is written on the basis of the analysis of scientific and methodological literature over the past two years and the personal experience of the authors of conducting mathematical disciplines with cadets and full-time students using distance learning technologies. The purpose of this article was to substantiate the relevance and significance of using a set of individual homework assignments containing applied tasks of an economic orientation for generalizing the material and acquiring the skill of synthetic activity. The study was conducted for four semesters in the classroom in the disciplines of the mathematical cycle with students of economic specialties. As a result of the work carried out, the authors were able to identify and analyze the most typical problems associated with the mathematical training of future economists. One of the ways to solve them is to use workbooks with tasks of economic content, the peculiarity of which lies in the structure of construction: around the central core (which is chosen as one of the basic economic concepts), several tasks are formed that reinforce various topics of the discipline being studied.

A PERSONALLY ORIENTED BASIS FOR THE FORMATION OF PROFESSIONAL AND VALUE ORIENTATIONS OF THE FUTURE TEACHER OF A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

An important purpose of Ukrainian education is to create conditions for personal development and creative self-realization for every young person, to form a generation capable of lifelong learning, to create and develop the values of civil society. In the process of teaching the discipline of the socio-humanitarian cycle, the transition from informative and explanatory forms and teaching methods to more active and creative ones, which are aimed at practical and professional application during studies at a higher educational institution, is of particular importance. Value orientations are actual formations in the structure of a person’s consciousness and self-awareness, which begins a series of his essential characteristics as an individual. Personally oriented technology as a purposeful concept of education and upbringing is centred on the student and is aimed at his development, self-improvement, and self-realization of the personal self-concept. The article highlights the importance of personally oriented foundations for the formation and development of professional value orientations of future foreign language teachers through practical activities in the process of studying the disciplines of the social and humanitarian cycle.The implementation of personally oriented technologies for studying the disciplines of the socio-humanitarian cycle and the special course provided for the partnership of the teacher and the student, turning the latter into an active subject of the pedagogical process, built on the ideas of humanism and cooperation. Personally oriented technology as a holistic concept of education and upbringing is centralised on the student and is aimed at his development, self-improvement, and self-realization of his personal self-concept. Procedurally, the use of optimal organizational forms and active methods, built on the basis of practical compatible conscious subject-subject interaction of the teacher and student, became the ways of implementing personally oriented technology.
 Keywords: future teacher of foreign language; values; value orientations; learning technology; personally oriented technology; social and humanitarian disciplines; forming of professional and value orientations; the mechanism of formation of professional value orientations.

The views of scientists on the tasks in various aspects of music teacher training are analyzed: organizational, methodological, theoretical, practical.The components of conducting and choral training are indicated. The criteria are highlighted and the essence of the indicators of the state of conducting and choral training of higher education students is characterized. The key provisions of the theory and practice of professional activity of the future music teacher are highlighted. It was found that the conducting and choral training of the future music teacher at the present stage is the unity and complex relationship of pedagogical, organizational and artistic and creative processes.Structuring the content of conducting and choral disciplines is proposed in order to identify and eliminate shortcomings in the study of disciplines. It is noted that the main purpose of conducting and choral disciplines is to form qualities that provide the opportunity for professional and pedagogical activities (vocal and choral, performing) and in preparation for the most common type of children's art - singing.The teacher-musician must be able to operate with a certain baggage of theoretical knowledge, the basics of practical training to work with the choir, performing culture, conducting technique and pedagogical skills in future professional musical activities.The role of the disciplines of the conductor-choir cycle in the acquisition of knowledge and practical skills in professional activities is determined and the relationship between the disciplines of this cycle is indicated. The main tasks of each component and its significance in mastering the conducting and choral skills are highlighted. The priority of practical activity in comparison with mastering the theoretical material is emphasized. It was found that conducting and choral training is one of the important areas in the structure of professional training of future music teachers in music and pedagogical institutions.

Approaches to the study disciplines of the information technologies' cycle in the economy

Introduction. The paper analyzes the works of scientists on the development of competences in the researched disciplines of the information technology cycle. The distribution of competencies according to different methodologies is shown. The classification of competencies is described. The technological toolkit of a single informational and educational environment has been studied. The concept of accumulation of competences is highlighted. The purpose of thr paper is to investigate the implementation' methodology of the competence approach to the study of the information technology' cycle disciplines Results. The paper presents the main software products. The author's vision of solving the problem of information technology development in universities is presented. The competency-based approach is determined by the pan-European trend of building educational programs of higher education - Tuning and its use in the educational process of Ukraine. The study of general competencies was one of the most important tasks of the implementation of the Tuning project in the educational process. Obtaining the planned results of the educational process is facilitated by the effective organization of independent work of the discipline "Internet technology" with the use of a single informational and educational environment. In such conditions, the approach to evaluation changes. The usual setting of grades for the discipline turns into tying grades to individual competencies that the student must acquire in the process of learning. The assessment for each work becomes multi-component. It has been established that the technological toolkit of a single informational and educational environment is an effective means of assessing the level of competence formation of higher education seekers. To use it, you need to create a "Competence Repository". Conclusions. Summarizing, we can draw the following conclusions. Thus, mastering the content of the disciplines of the cycle of information technologies by students of higher education in the conditions of a single informational and educational environment allows to speed up the process of obtaining and consolidating information, simplifying its perception, mastering a large amount of educational material in a fairly short period of time. Most higher education students are happy to learn new technologies with the help of their devices, develop intellectual abilities and try to increase their level of use of Internet technologies. And teachers get the opportunity to shape the development trajectories of each student; fundamentally new opportunities for the organization of research, project activities and adaptation of educational material to real life; fundamentally new opportunities for knowledge transfer: video lectures, webinars, video broadcasts, integrated practical classes, cooperative laboratory work; online communication. Therefore, the combination of face-to-face and remote forms of education is the next evolutionary step towards providing the educational process with the properties of adaptability, flexibility, openness and mobility.

METHODOLOGICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS OF ECOLOGIZATION OF FOREST EDUCATION IN RUSSIA

METHODOLOGICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS OF ECOLOGIZATION OF FOREST EDUCATION IN RUSSIA

THE PECULIARITIES OF PREPARATION OF A TEACHER-PHILOLOGIST BY MEANS OF THE ELECTIVE COGNITIVE LINGUISTIC COURSES

The article is devoted to the problem of training a teacher of Philology by means of elective cognitive linguistic courses. On the one hand, the penetration of cognitivism in various fields of humanities, the urgent need to create a new understanding of the role of languages in the processes of cognition and comprehension of the world, the essence and functioning of the mental lexicon, including proper names, and deep relationships between history and culture, on the other hand, not less critical need for specialists ready to work in the new Ukrainian school, able to understand languages in cognitive processes, to implement a socio-cultural approach to language and speech material, determine the relevance of the proposed topic. Except for this, we also considered that nowadays, the students’ training includes the curriculum with at least 25 % of credits for elective courses, which ensures the implementation of a student-centred approach to learning. The article aimed to find out the peculiarities of the training of a teacher-philologist in the study of such elective disciplines of the language cycle as “Cognitive Linguistics”, “Cognitive Onomastics” and “Ukrainian Ethnolinguistics in the Cognitive Dimension”. To achieve this goal, the example of studying individual topics has shown how to optimize the learning process. In particular, short theses on the mentioned topics, control questions, tasks for independent work and literature review are offered. The conclusion is made about the advantages of both lectures and practical training. If during the lectures, students should, first of all, master the terminology and master the theoretical knowledge, then at the workshops, they ought to acquire skills of conceptual analysis, learn to model and structure concepts, understand language as a creative product of ethnosociety, and proper names - as units of the mental lexicon. The observations allowed us to conclude that the study of these disciplines is of great theoretical and practical importance. Theoretical value includes the assimilation of linguistic information to understand the cognitive mechanisms and role of language in them, the processes of ethnogenesis, and the functioning of language units in the mental lexicon; the practical one lies in need to develop students’ skills to use knowledge in future teaching. In general, the study outlined several problems caused by the penetration of cognitivism in language, which require further in-depth analysis, especially in terms of Linguodidactics.

SPATIAL THINKING OF STUDENTS OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS AS AN INDICATOR OF THEIR INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT

The peculiarities of formation of spatial thinking in students of engineering and pedagogical specialties in the course of study of the graphic cycle disciplines have been substantiated. The definitions of “spatial thinking” and “spatial imagination” are clarified. The legitimacy of spatial thinking as an independent mental process, which is associated with the analysis of spatial features and the relationship between elements of real objects (or their graphic images) and application of these features in resolution of design problems by students of engineering specialties of higher education is mentioned.
 The content and basic operational units of spatial thinking in undergraduates during their study of graphic disciplines have been described. The dependence of the level of development of spatial thinking of students on the type of spatial images operating in Descriptive Geometry, drawing, engineering and computer graphics lessons has been specified. There has been offered the typology of students of engineering and pedagogical specialties of pedagogical high school, depending on their level of spatial thinking development and ability to explicit spatial transformations. The initial level of spatial thinking development of the students of the first year of study before the study of the cycle of graphic disciplines in higher education institutions has been also analyzed. The prospects of resolution of the issue of increasing the level of spatial thinking in undergraduates as an indicator of their intellectual development have been outlined in the study.

ШЛЯХИ УДОСКОНАЛЕННЯ ПІЗНАВАЛЬНОЇ САМОСТІЙНОСТІ МАЙБУТНІХ УЧИТЕЛІВ

The article highlights one of the current problems of modern pedagogical science - the problem of improving the cognitive independence of future primary school teachers. Significance and possibility of solving the problem in the theoretical aspect of this study in domestic and foreign students. Understanding that cognitive independence is an important and necessary quality of a modern teacher, which provides professional and qualification potential of efficiency-pedagogical activity, based on activity and independence, creativity is realized by acquired knowledge in solving various professional. The article emphasizes that the formation of a certain quality can be carried out in the process of studying future teachers of disciplines of the pedagogical cycle, in particular the history of pedagogy. This science provides an opportunity for students in the process of learning pedagogical truths to think logically, to delve deeply into educational problems, which contributes to the formation of mechanisms for their self-realization, self-development, the pursuit of the creative search. The article underscores the fact that in the process of teaching this discipline the activities of students should be aimed at developing the ability to creatively apply the information and interpret it, productively using the experience gained in real-life situations.

It is determined that these methods provide activation of students' activities by revealing the truth through the comparison of different views in the context of solving pedagogical problems based on the time challenges of society of a certain historical period. It is emphasized that appropriately organized work of students creates conditions for independent search, provides intensive work of thought, creates favorable conditions for the development of the ability of future teachers to independently and comprehensively consider the subject. Key words: cognitive independence, teacher training, interactive learning, discussion methods, role play.

Language reflections of the concept of the sacred in the Kazakh worldview

The article focuses on the ways of representation in the language of sacred concepts in the worldview of the Kazakhs. The etymology of the term “sacred” used in the socio-political and scientific environment is given. The scientific and theoretical foundations of the concept of sacredness in historical consciousness are analyzed. The article reveals the concept of national value, sacredness, which is of particular importance in the Kazakh worldview. The concept of sacredness is considered from the point of view of the theory of language. It is determined that the sacred concepts for the Kazakh can be recognized in society through traditions and customs; reflected through linguistic units. The material of the study is set expressions, proverbs, and sayings. The practical significance of the study lies in the possibility of using its results, first of all, in teaching the disciplines of the philological cycle: language theory, linguoculturology, sociolinguistics.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY OF A FUTURE TEACHER OF VOCATIONAL TRAINING

The current stage of development of vocational education is associated with the need to solve the problem of increasing the intellectual level of the cognitive and creative potential of students, finding ways to develop cognitive and creative abilities. The use of modern technical means of learning contributes to the modernization of the educational process, activates the mental activity of students, promotes the development of their creativity, allows distance learning, develops a system of continuing education.The need to use information technology in the training of teachers of vocational training determines the personalization and technologicalization of the learning process, which includes active independent work of students; integration of psychological and pedagogical disciplines and disciplines of the information cycle; extensive use of students’ own experience, etc. The article identifies a number of types of educational activities, the implementation of which becomes more efficient due to the implementation of information technology: management of real objects; automated control; self-control, etc. The use of information technology in the professional activities of future teachers of vocational training is one of the basic conditions for the formation of highly qualified specialists, which allows to differentiate and individualize work with students and develop their independence by taking into account the needs of educational needs.
 Keywords: information technologies; vocational training; training of the vocational training teacher; Informatization of education.

DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN POTENTIAL: DESIGN THINKING AS A WAY OF IMPROVING PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCIES OF ECONOMISTS

In a post-industrial society, the quality of professional education becomes a leading factor in the formation of human potential. One of the ways to ensure the effectiveness of this process is the use of innovative educational technologies aimed not only at the formation of professional competences, but also at the development of creativity which, in the future, will contribute to the search for non-standard ways of solving real problems. The purpose of the work is to study the influence of interactive educational technologies based on the concept of design thinking on the success of students of economic specialties and their internal motivation to study mathematical disciplines. The format of a business game has been chosen as a method of implementing the concept of design thinking. It involved the construction of a mathematical model of a real economic problem and the use of a mathematical apparatus to solve it. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of gamification it has decided to distribute students according to academic performance and students ranked classes according to their preferences using the method of hierarchies analysis. The experience of implementing business games demonstrated by the example of the discipline “Operations Research and Optimization Methods” confirmed the effectiveness of this technique in the process of studying the disciplines of the mathematical cycle precisely due to the increase in students’ internal motivation. Compared to traditional teaching methods, the formation of students’ professional competencies has been enriched by the experience of solving transdisciplinary tasks. The results of the study allow us to conclude that the professional competencies of future economists are significantly improved thanks to the use of a business game in the learning process where a real economic problem is adapted to the topic of the discipline.

Об одном из исследований коммуникативных навыков современных студентов

This paper continues the research traditions established by Doctor of Philological Sciences, Professor I.A. Sternin and is devoted to the results of the study of communicative skills of modern first-year students. As a theoretical introduction to the description of the conducted research, it postulates the need to differentiate a number of concepts that are actively used in communication theory and are often mixed in scientific and everyday consciousness: communicative competence, communicative competency, communicative skill, communicative literacy. In particular, communicative competence is proposed to be understood as a degree of experience of interaction between an individual and others, and communicative competency as a system of internal resources necessary to build effective communication. In turn, communicative competency is considered as a set of specific communicative skills that allow the individual to implement adequate models of communication in a particular communicative situation. The distinction of these concepts allowed to further focus on such an object of research as communication skills. The research was based on the questionnaire method, its purpose being to identify the specific communication difficulties experienced by the respondents (i.e., modern students), as well as the origins of these difficulties. The communication situations that are most difficult for interviewees have been captured and further quantified and analysed. The result of the study was, on the one hand, a list of real communication difficulties experienced by students and the causes of these difficulties, and on the other hand, the confirmation of the thesis that the lack of communication skills can and should be eliminated during the study of the disciplines of the communication cycle.

ПСИХОЛОГО-ПЕДАГОГІЧНІ ІНСТРУМЕНТИ ВИКЛАДАЧА ПРИРОДНИЧИХ ДИСЦИПЛІН ПРИ ПІДГОТОВЦІ ЗДОБУВАЧА ВИЩОЇ МЕДИЧНОЇ ОСВІТИ

The article considers the main psychological and pedagogical tools of the teacher in the field of fundamental training of applicants for higher medical education in the discipline “Medical and Biological Physics”. The role of the teacher of the cycle of fundamental training in medical education and the pedagogical tools he or she uses deserve special attention. The stimulating influence and effect on the internal (why the student should do it) and external (in what conditions the student will do it) motivation of the student by the teacher is very important. The contemporary teacher must also restructure his/her activities because of new challenges in the education system and deviate from traditional methods, pursue permanent selfimprovement, adapt to the way of thinking of students, understand and analyze it to be able to moderate the educational process, more widely use interactive methods and creative, individual approach focused on students, be practically oriented, innovative, etc. The modern medicine has made a great step forward thanks to the development of new technologies based on the achievements of information, mathematical and natural sciences. Therefore, it is important for the future physician to know the basic laws of nature, including physical laws, which are basic for the disciplines of the clinical cycle. The discipline «Medical and Biological Physics» was formed at the intersection of physics, biology, chemistry and medicine and is one of the most important in the preparation of future physicians. The historical progress of medical education in our country gives convincing information about the close relationship between natural sciences and clinical departments, which is a guarantee of quality in fundamental training of graduates. Today’s medicine widely uses the results of theoretical and experimental achievements in the field of physics, so the study of biological physics is important in the professional development and growth of the future competitive specialist, in the development of his/her personality. If the motivation to study other disciplines of natural sciences is sometimes present, so to speak, “by default”, and an additional stimulus for such studies is their inclusion into the structure of licensed exams, the discipline “Medical and Biological Physics” requires additional stimuli and pedagogical tools, namely: – clear, logical structuring of the lesson to systematize the material; – modeling of problem situations; – moderation of the educational process; – encouragement of independent and in-depth study of some issues, and others. Finding and using effective incentives to motivate students is the key to improving their academic performance, which in turn is reflected in the future in their professional competence development. The main role in this process undoubtedly belongs to the teacher and well-chosen pedagogical tools. The additional stimuli and pedagogical tools described in the article increase the motivation to study biological physics and understand its importance. Often the students’ argument against studying this discipline is the lack of time, and this is another problem of first year students which needs to be addressed – their irrationality in planning their time.

ФОРМУВАННЯ ІНФОРМАЦІЙНОЇ ГРАМОТНОСТІ МАЙБУТНІХ УЧИТЕЛІВ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ МОВИ І ЛІТЕРАТУ

The article substantiates the need for purposeful formation of information literacy of future teachers of Ukrainian language and literature, as it plays a significant role in shaping the professional competence of future teachers of that subject. It was found that information literacy includes the ability to effectively search and use sources and information, systematize it, the ability to distinguish plagiarism, distinguish facts from judgments, the ability to hypothesize and evaluate alternatives, and adhere to the principles of academic integrity. The features of formation of information literacy of future teachers of Ukrainian language and literature in the context of classroom and extracurricular work on various normative and selective disciplines of general and professional training cycles («Modern children’s and adolescent literature», «History of Ukrainian literature», «Methods of teaching Ukrainian language» , “History of the State and Law of Ukraine”, “Fundamentals of Academic Integrity”) were distinguished. A system of tasks for the formation of information literacy is suggested, in particular: checking the authorship of quotations and proverbial expressions, a quiz about Taras Shevchenko’s monuments in the world, searching for images on the Internet and preparing historical or cultural commentaries, recognizing orders and medals through online services of independent Ukraine, creation of posters, videos, infographics, icons on linguistic and literary topics, analysis of scientific publications and their discussion, creation of presentations and drafting codes of honor for students of the academic group. In the context of the study, such forms and methods were used as brainstorming, the tree of assumptions, the ladder of success, cubing, knowledge maps, trainings, with the help of which the formation of information literacy of future teachers of Ukrainian language and literature was achieved. It is noted that the formation of the studied phenomenon was carried out within the framework of non-formal education - in the format of participation of students in the grant program for information media literacy «Information media literacy: learn yourself - teach others» international project «Learn and distinguish: Research and Exchanges” (IREX) with the support of the British and US Embassies in Ukraine in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and the Academy of the Ukrainian Press. The results of the participation were presented by students within the “Relay of Champions”, as well as presented by teachers in the manual “Guide to information literacy for students and teachers of modern educational institutions: a workshop”.

Methodological Foundation for the Organization and Conduct of the Business Game Aimed at University Students in Art History Classes

The development of new teaching methods is an important condition that increases the universal and professional competence of future professionals, which in turn accelerates the process of postgraduate adaptation in the professional communities of culture and art. The aim of the study is to develop methodological principles and techniques for effective teaching of art students. The article reevaluates the fundamental techniques of higher education, focusing on the role of a teacher and student in this process. As a result, we provided a theoretical summary of the experience of teaching disciplines in the field of art and culture. Based on the system-activity approach and human-personal pedagogy research, the study showed the effectiveness of the business game as an interactive method of learning in a rapidly changing socio-cultural environment. We also determined the features and basic pedagogical principles of organizing and conducting business game. The study demonstrated the strengths of business game as an imitative collective game method of active learning in work with students studying art history disciplines. A new form of business game for the disciplines of art history cycle was put forward. We argues that the acquired knowledge and skills meet the needs of professional communities in regards to the competences of young professionals in the field of culture and arts.
