Evaluation of equine assisted learning in education for primary school children: a qualitative study of the perspectives of teachers

The study presents qualitative research on the impact of Equine Assisted Learning in Education (EALE) has on the development of life skills in children as perceived by teachers and programme trainer. A qualitative design was utilised with semi structured interviews of the 8 participants investigating what changes were observed in the children’s cognitive, psychomotor and social skills were during and or after participation in the EALE. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Four themes emerged, including, (i) relationships and trust, (ii) communication and confidence, (iii) achievement, (iv) teamwork and participation. The study identified cognitive, social and psychomotor learning for children across the four themes. This study found that there was increased interaction with each other, increased nonverbal communication and group work which was transferred into the classroom after the EALE and was reported to be seen for a considerable time after the programme ended. This supports previous research investigating the impact of EALE in children and supports its use as an alternative to classroom teaching for those who struggle to engage in the conventional classroom.

SELF-AWARENESS OF A PARENT AND THE PROCESS EDUCATION GOODNESS AND PREDOMINANCE IMMATERIAL OVER MATERIAL OF PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN

Introduction. The process of education in pedagogy is considered as a two-way process. Parents in the modern educational space pay great attention to the control of the teacher-student relationship. Such a focus can be shifted to a system of relationships with a child included in the parent-teacher-student system. The parent’s self-awareness in the context of spiritual and moral education determines the content of the article. The forms and content of the activities of the socio-psychological service of the school, teachers in the parent-student-teacher triad have been studied and are being studied constantly. Changes in socio-economic and cultural processes offer new questions in the theory and practice of pedagogical activity, taking into account positional thinking, the age of the student and the self-consciousness of his parent.
 Purpose: to analyze the methods, forms and content of goodness and predominance inmaterial over material and moral education of primary school children and the necessary processes of changing the parent’s self-consciousness.
 The methodology and research methods take into account the principle of consistency and, when analyzing the content and forms of goodness and predominance inmaterial over material and moral education activities in primary school, model the elements of the structure of the goodness and predominance inmaterial over material and moral component of the parent’s self-consciousness.
 Results and scope of application. The proposed model of the structure of the goodness and predominance inmaterial over material and moral component of the parent’s self-consciousness makes it possible to adapt the parent-student-teacher triad to situations in the conditions of positional thinking.

ВИХОВАННЯ МОЛОДШИХ ШКОЛЯРІВ ЗАСОБАМИ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ПІСНІ В УМОВАХ НОВОЇ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ШКОЛИ ТА У СВІТЛІ ІДЕЙ ІВАНА ОГІЄНКА

Taking into account the new socio-political realities in Ukraine after the Revolution of Dignity and the circumstances of Russian aggression, it is becoming increasingly important to develop younger generation’s patriotism, commitment to the national mission of strengthening the country, active citizenship, etc. The main goal of national education at the present stage is to pass on to the younger generation the social experience, nation’s rich spiritual culture, national mentality, affi nity of worldview and, on this basis, to form the personality qualities of a citizen of Ukraine that ensure national identity, developed spirituality, moral, artistic, labour, physical, and environmental culture, and the development of individual abilities and talents.Educating a versatile and harmoniously developed personality of a junior pupil in the context of the New Ukrainian School is one of the most important tasks at the present stage of society’s development, where enriching the child’s spiritual world involves the formation of creative potential and inner culture, ensuring the spiritual unity of generations, and especially in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war. A general secondary education institution should focus its activities on the development of humanistic feelings of junior pupils, the formation of national and universal values. Therefore, the revival of folk song culture is of great importance in the education of pupils of the New Ukrainian School.Modern scientifi c research is actively studying the pedagogical possibilities of Ukrainian song folklore and ways to use it in the educational process of educational institutions, in particular, the ideas of nationality at the present stage of their compre-hension are not only theoretical, but also creatively implemented in the educational process of general secondary education institutions in Ukraine.The purpose of the article is to reveal and substantiate the importance of the psy-chological and pedagogical potential of Ukrainian songs for the education of primary school children in the New Ukrainian School according to Ivan Ohiienko’s ideas.

Biographical Approach to Aesthetic Education of Primary School Children

The relevance of the research is determined by the increased interest in the use of biographical materials (biographical References, memoirs, fragments from popular science non-fic- tion books, various forms of visual aids – reproductions of portraiture, photographs, videos) in literary reading lessons as well as by the fact that the methods of how to teach writers’ biographies in primary school are not fully developed. The purpose of the article is to examine characteristic features of the biographical approach to aesthetic education of primary school children and to determine the role of writers’ biographies in the system of aesthetic education. The analysis of the scientific and educational sources has shown that currently many educational systems (for example, “School of Dialogue”, “Perspective”) use fragments of biographies that are on the pag- es of textbooks on literary reading. However, teacher’s books usually include a brief indication: “A story about a writer” – and rarely contain ready-made biographical entries. To help the teacher and the student, various demonstration materials and reference manuals are published providing information mainly about writers’ appearance, chronology of their life and work, however, they fail to show them as “living people”. Such materials have education value, but they are not able to evoke an emotional response in a young reader. They do not take into account the age characteristics of primary school children and the specifics of literary reading lessons. Extensive media content contains useful, aesthetically significant as well as negative information. This research has developed criteria to select and organize biographical material for a literary reading lesson; additionally, it has defined pedagogical conditions necessary for the aesthetic impact of biographies on a younger student.

Self-education of future teachers in education of primary school children through national values

Relevance. Relevance of the study is due is a pedagogical conditions, the implementation of which in the educational process of universities, taking into account the aspect of transformation of the content of education from knowledge-centered to competence-based, wich will be contribute to the effective preparation of future primary school teachers for successful professional and pedagogical self-education through national values in today's rapidly changing world. Purpose. The aim of the study is to provide theoretical justification and develop pedagogical conditions for the successful formation of professional and pedagogical self-educational competence of future primary school teachers through national values in the educational process of higher education institutions. Methodology. As part of the study, we formulated the following hypothesis: if the process of professional training of future primary school teachers through the national values of the Republic of Kazakhstan will take place taking into account the pedagogical conditions developed and justified by us, this will lead to the successful formation of professional and pedagogical self-educational competence of future primary school teachers, since professional and pedagogical self-educational competence is not formed by default, for its formation, it is necessary to create adequate pedagogical conditions in the educational process of the university. Results. At present, there is an obvious contradiction between the need to prepare future primary school teachers through national values in the educational process of universities for successful professional and pedagogical self-education in a rapidly changing world, taking into account the transformation of the content of education from knowledge-centered to competence-based, and its insufficient development in modern higher pedagogical educational institutions and specialized scientific literature. Conclusions. National values allow the state to ensure its sovereignty, the continuity of generations, the identity and traditions of the people, so future primary school teachers through continuous self-education should be able to develop and apply current technologies for instilling them in younger schoolchildren.

Investigating the Involvement of Parents in Their Children’s Education at Primary School Level

The involvement of parents in their children’s education affects the quality of their learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the involvement of parents in the education of primary school children. The quantitative descriptive research method was employed to conduct the study. The population of the study was 3,297 children studying at the primary school level and their parents. A proportionate stratified random sampling technique was used to select 348 students and their parents for data collection. The data were collected from children and their parents through a five-point scale. The research instrument consisted of six factors: parenting, communicating, decision-making, learning at home, volunteering, and collaboration with the community. The data were collected through personal visits by the researchers. Data were analyzed through mean, standard deviation, Kruskal Wallis, and Mann-Whitney U test. The research study concluded that primary school students and their parents hold the same perspective regarding parental involvement in their children's education. However, there was a significant difference in parental involvement in their children’s education, as the students reported, based on their demographic characteristics and the educational institutions they were attending. It is suggested to adapt the involvement of parents according to the needs of students of different age groups and grades by developing a strong and continuous connection between school and home.

The quality of life in primary school children according to the teaching format and motor activity

Objective. To study the impact of the duration of distance learning on the quality of life (QOL) in primary school children. Subjects and methods. An open cohort prospective study of primary school children and their parents was conducted using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory PedsQL 4.0ТМ. A study group included 182 children (and their parents) who had learned in the distance format for 6 months (Lugansk). A comparison group consisted of 234 primary school children (and their parents) who had had distance learning for 2 months (Rostov-on-Don). Results. The analysis of the results indicated that the first ranking place showing in discomfort and the greatest decrease in the QoL indicators in the study group was displayed by the physical functioning scale (6-month distance learning). The second ranking place belonged to school functioning, the level of which in the study group decreased by 1.27 scores compared to the baseline level. The third ranking place is shown by social functioning of primary school children, the indicators of which in the study group were 18.49 scores lower than the initial levels. Conclusion. Prolonged education of primary school children in a distance format affects all aspects of QOL. The greatest decrease in QOL indicators in younger schoolchildren during the formation of basic learning skills is observed in the field of physical, school and social functioning. The assessment of QOL by primary school children and their parents differs.

Implementation of a Web Application and GIS Electronic Atlas for Teaching in Open Education

Geospatial technology (GST) training has become an important part of open education. The education of primary school children is difficult to design and develop, since there are no educational tools for teaching GST technologies in the school education system of Kazakhstan. This study is aimed at developing and evaluating a system for studying the basics of GST, based on the use of an electronic GIS atlas of geography and a mobile web application KAZCUNET of open education for elementary school students who need additional attention from teachers and parents. The article examines the academic performance of children and the perception of end users based on an extended technology implementation model using the SmartPLS 4 tool. The results contribute to and confirm the significant positive effect of the introduction of GST in open education. Perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, support, satisfaction positively affect the behavioral intention to use the proposed educational web application and the educational electronic GIS atlas of geography.

Der Beitrag zeigt auf, welche methodischen und thematischen Schwerpunkte bisherige Studien gelegt haben. Hiervon ausgehend ergeben sich drei konkrete Forschungsdesiderata, deren Bearbeitung retrospektiv dazu beitragen würde, ein tieferes Verständnis dafür zu entwickeln, wie das Distance-Schooling umgesetzt wurde und wie Digitale Bildung im Grundschulalter langfristig gestaltet werden kann.

Mobile games as a means of increasing the motor activity of younger school students during physical education lessons

Among a large number of various means of physical education of primary school pupils, outdoor games are widely used, which carry a high educational potential and contribute to the solution of educational and health problems. Play activities are especially important during the period of the most active character formation - in childhood. The need for movement, increased motor activity is the most important biological feature of the child's body at the age of 7-9 years. At the same time, at this age, the foundations of children's conscious attitude to their own physical fitness and awareness of the need for physical activity are laid.
 Younger children need to improve gross and fine motor skills, visual-motor and auditory-visual-motor coordination, i.e. to create a "reserve" of motor capabilities for motor development in general and for successful schooling in particular. The effectiveness of physical qualities development is determined by the choice of optimal means, methods, forms of physical education of preschool children. One of such means is outdoor activities and sports games. Thus, it should be noted the great social and pedagogical importance of outdoor games, as well as the need for their use in the physical education of primary school children.
 In the process of physical education, knowledge about movements is transferred, children are introduced to the most rational ways of performing movements that positively affect the functioning of organs and systems, allowing them to solve motor tasks with less effort. The younger age is important in terms of the effectiveness of pedagogical influence, which should ensure the completeness and timeliness of children's physical and motor development, promote the correct formation of the structure of natural movements, the analytical function of the motor apparatus

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of parents toward sexuality education for primary school children in China.

This cross-sectional study provides insight into the perceptions of Chinese parents of primary school children with respect to sexuality education. A sample of 19,745 parents was surveyed using an online questionnaire in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei, China. SPSS version 23.0 was used for data analysis. In this study, nearly 90% of parents had positive attitudes toward the sexuality education of children in primary schools. However, Chinese parents had limited knowledge of sexuality education. More than 60% of parents were unaware of the sexuality questions that children may encounter at different ages and did not have any accurate information on child sexual abuse prevention education. Although ~ 70% of parents (both fathers and mothers) reported that they had used television and Internet resources to talk with their children about sexuality and 63% reported that they had read books with their children about sexuality, < 30% reported using appropriate terminology with their children on sexuality education and only 40% reported talking to their children about sexuality comfortably. The multivariate linear regression equation showed some factors associated with the practices of parents in sexuality education, including parental knowledge, attitudes, their experience in receiving sex education in childhood, and their educational level. The findings from this study suggest that it is important to develop culturally relevant training programs for parents of primary schools in Chinese society. The implications and limitations of these findings are discussed.

Age dynamics of development of coordination abilities of primary school students

The article analyzes the indicators of the development of coordination abilities of pupils in grades 2-3, which, on average, correspond to the "average" level. The comparison of data in the age and gender aspect shows, mainly, a significant increase in indicators with age and the dominance of boys' results over girls' data. The analysis of secondary indicators indicates a significant increase in the results at the end of the year, which resulted in the overall level of development of coordination abilities increased to "below average".&#x0D; Most of the data obtained during the experiment show a significant increase in the level of coordination abilities (P&lt;0.05) in boys and girls of 2nd and 3rd grades. But we see that in some coordination exercises indicators are lower than average level of norms, so we can conclude that little attention is paid to development of these qualities. This suggests that in the process of education little attention is paid to the development of these qualities.&#x0D; It is necessary to develop more differentiated methods of physical education of primary school children to improve some of the results of tests of coordination abilities. Children with low scores should be offered to attend some sections with a physical inclination and be guided to improve their personal performance.

HEALTH METHODOLOGY FOR REDUCING ANXIETY AND SUPPORTING THE FUNCTIONAL HEALTH OF CHILDREN

The health deterioration of children in Ukraine largely depends on such factors as economic instability in the country, environmental pollution, poor nutrition, lack of health intervention. A particularly important factor is the lifestyle. Health is an integral characteristic of an individual and determines the quality of life. Preservation and strengthening of student’s health, the increase of motor activity level, development and further improvement of basic physical qualities are the main tasks of physical education of primary school children and the priority directions of the development of our society. Health-improving, pedagogical and educational tasks should be solved in a complex, only in this case the effective multipurpose influence and development of primary school children will be effective. The purpose of the study – to develop the methodology of using health-improving exercises aimed at reducing the level of anxiety and maintaining the optimal level of the functional state for primary school children during a full-fledged war. Research organization. The study was performed from April 2022 to October 2022 (including the summer holidays) at the premises of General Academic School № 35, Dnipro. The experimental groups consisted of 17 boys and 13 girls; the control groups consisted of 16 boys and 14 girls, who were classified into the main medical group according to the health condition. The developed methodology consists of two blocks that complement each other and thus have a comprehensive impact on the children: theoretical and practical. Results. The data obtained during the research revealed both positive and negative dynamics. The obtained data of the analysis of anxiety according to the Philips psychology test showed very interesting results. Thanks to the developed methodology, such aspects as: experiencing social stress, frustration of the need to achieve success, fear of self-expression and low physiological resistance to stress were eliminated for children. The obtained data will complement the existing ones and will make it possible to contribute to the study. In our research, the data obtained by the Kettle index after the implementation of the developed health-improving methodology were arranged as follows - in the experimental group the indicators increased by 16.72% (p &lt;0.05), and in the control group only by 8.51% (p&lt;0.05). Movement is very important for primary school children and has a positive effect on weight and height. Analysing the data obtained according to the Skibinski index, it was noted that all of them significantly increased, which means the functions of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems of schoolchildren were within the norm and developed in accordance with the laws of child’s age physiology. The data of the Ruffier’s functional test in the control group became lower (position average 55.62% and below average 44.38% level for the assessment of physical performance (p&lt;0.05) under the influence of distance learning, because it led to a sedentary lifestyle. On the contrary, the data of the experimental group improved due to the developed method – the position of the average 71.58% and above the average 28.42% level for the assessment of physical performance (p&lt;0.05). But the experimental groups showed the best result, this is due to the fact that while building the methodology we took into account not only sensitive development, but also those aspects that would motivate children to develop and maintain both mental and physical health. Conclusion. The obtained results testify the effectiveness of developed methodology, which consisted of two blocks with the prioritized use of health-improving exercises as a new tool for the healthy lifestyle formation.

Features of the formation of the structure of physical fitness of primary school children and the development of its main components

This article deals with pedagogical problems of theory and practice of physical education of primary school children. The structure of physical fitness of 8-9-year-old children is analyzed. The level of physical fitness of a person largely determines his physical and mental health, ability to work, success in professional activities. The conducted theoretical analysis convincingly shows that one of the pedagogical conditions for effective education of physical abilities is a system of rational planning of pedagogical actions taking into account sensitive periods and features of age development of children. In the structure of physical fitness of children of primary school age, its components are quite clearly defined - strength and speed-power abilities, motor skills and endurance, flexibility and agility. As you know, these components are interconnected and interact and change with age. When studying the structure of physical training of primary school children, factor analysis is used, which allows to obtain information about the main factor in the structure of physical fitness and the influence of certain factors on the age formation of physical abilities of primary school children. It is established that in preschool and school age in the period of active growth and development, the effectiveness of physical training can be achieved under the condition of appropriate physical activity, features of age development of physical abilities. The development of technologies for planning the means of electoral orientation can be carried out in two directions - the study of sensitive periods in the development of individual physical abilities and their relationships using correlation or factor analysis. Due to the fact that the physical fitness of children 8-9 years of age is insufficiently studied, and there is no information about the planning of pedagogical activities of electoral and complex orientation, we conducted research in which these problems were solved.

Clouds of words as a didactic tool in literary education of primary school children

The study reveals the possibilities of using the words’ cloud in the literary education of primary school children. The authors consider the possibility of using a cloud of words to visualize the keywords of the text for the translation of the work of art, the interpretation of the main idea and the characteristics of the artistic image. The words’ cloud can also be used as a reference summary to answer questions about the content of the work or to present the results of a school project by students. Moreover, in reading lessons, this tool can be used as a tool to identify the topic of the lesson. The study reveals the possibilities of the didactic tool of the words’ cloud for the development of speech of primary school children, in particular, in composing their own texts and editing them, the ability to explore words that the student uses too often and avoid tautology. Using the method of a problem situation and visually demonstrating information through a cloud of words, the teacher pro-motes the activation of students’ mental activity, the development of creative abilities and critical thinking.The study tested the use of the electronic resource WordArt in primary school – a website for creating a “word’s cloud” and proved its effectiveness in reflection, as well as creating an image of the main idea of the lesson, general conversation, its use as didactic material. The authors used the technology of learning using a cloud office package Google Drive to write a draft of their own statement of primary school children. The authors investigated the use of the service in the lesson of literary reading during the organization of reading activities in the following areas: in the “cloud of words” to encrypt the topic of the lesson; using the cloud as visual material or as basic information to explain new material; encrypt certain words from the text in the cloud, students’ task to guess the work; create a cloud of words of positive and negative characters of the work; write a story on the topic; create an “encrypted postcard” to the writer or hero of the work. In the course of experimental work, the effectiveness of the use of this didactic tool in the lessons of literary reading in primary school during the analysis of texts in order to identify the most important associations of students was confirmed.
