FORMS OF EDUCATIONAL PROCESS ORGANIZATION IN PRESCHOOL EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE CRISIS IN UKRAINE

The review article identifies and characterizes the current state and peculiarities of the organization of the educational process in preschool educational institutions in the context of the crisis in Ukraine. The normative documents regulating the specifics of preschool education institutions are analyzed. The challenges in organizing the educational process in various forms are substantiated. The features of implementing various forms of preschool education under the legal regime of martial law are characterized. The issues of organizing the educational process in preschool education institutions in the new realities are analyzed in detail, the lack of systematic research and the novelty of the problem of the mixed form of organization of preschool education in the context of the crisis in Ukraine are established. The author identifies barriers to the organization of educational activities in the context of the crisis in Ukraine. The author presents statistical data from the operational information of the departments of education of the regional military administrations as of February 15, 2024, on the organization of the educational process in preschool education institutions in various forms of education, the number of children covered by preschool education and the human resources of teachers. It is noted that an important place in the new realities should be occupied by rethinking the system of methodological work. The formation of teachers' reflective skills, training of a teacher-facilitator who ensures successful communication between all participants in the educational process, helps parents and guides their actions, enabling them to act independently and supporting their desire for self-realization, self-improvement, and self-development should come to the fore. This is one of the main challenges of organizing the educational process during martial law. The organization of the educational process cannot have a rigid construct of planning and organization and must be replaced by a flexible response to the "live" situation, taking into account the real needs and interests of children, which is now a necessity. In the article, the author notes that teaching teams should act more independently and responsibly, realizing all the risks in the specific conditions in which they have to work, meaningfully assessing their potential and resources to preserve the life and health of all participants in the educational process and implement the State Standard. Partnering with parents is one of the most important conditions for organizing the educational process in the context of the crisis in Ukraine.

UONEDU as Social Innovation: From Education to Education

The specific conditions of education are a great challenge for all those involved in education, and necessarily refer to knowledge and the transfer of knowledge. In such conditions, without prior planning and organization of teaching, educational institutions are "thrown into the world" (Heidegger, 1985) of online education. The purpose of the study is to identify leadership, programs and its evidence. By content analysis, it is identified that the UONEDU organization has leadership in accordance with regulations of the state, it has the educational program contents and that has evidence for verification and recognitions for policy makers - Certificates. It can be concluded that social innovation of citizens and experts, by networking and bringing to the table models of organizing and representations are a way in which small-scale organizations are thrown and could be recognized in the world and be served as strategies to overcome education in specific conditions.

The Digital Competences Necessary for the Successful Pedagogical Practice of Teachers in the Digital Age

The digital transformation of society is a reality. Technology is becoming integral to people’s daily lives and children are growing up in the digital age. The education systems have to reflect and adapt to the new digital reality to effectively engage and prepare students for the future. Teachers have to possess digital competences at a high level, meaning that they are successfully able to use digital tools and technologies in their teaching practices. Digital competences include digital literacy, experience using educational software and platforms, and the ability to seamlessly integrate information and communication technologies (ICT) into the organization of educational activities. The current paper aims to study the opinion of teachers in Bulgarian schools regarding the possibilities of using digital technologies to achieve educational goals and the extent to which teachers integrate digital tools in their teaching activities. Teachers’ opinions about the need for specific digital competences are important. The results of the survey show that teachers in Bulgaria actively use digital technologies in their daily teaching activities (84.8%) in order to create and provide learning content to students and to provoke their active participation, and is a convenient tool for evaluating their students’ knowledge and skills and for providing effective feedback. The conducted research also identifies the necessary competences that teachers of the digital generation of learners need—skills and competences for developing authored electronic resources in various formats for students with different learning styles, as well as for working in online environments—individually and collaboratively with other teachers.

Landscape of practices of educational activities and youth policy in universities (based on the experience of holding a review-competition of the best practices in the implementation of youth policy and organization of educational activities at the university)

The article is devoted to the analysis of the essential characteristics of educational practices and youth policy in educational institutions of higher education in the Russian Federation. The authors analyze a large data set, which included a description of 581 practices obtained during the Review-Competition of the best practices in educational activities and youth policy, organized by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation in 2022. The article characterizes the target, content, technological, subjective profile of educational practices and youth policy. The authors come to the conclusion that universities have emerged as an integrative subject of educational activities and youth policy. The analysis made it possible to record several significant characteristics that determine the modern landscape of education in universities: an imbalance of the target group of practices (dominated by junior undergraduate students); closedness of the university system of educational work; the dominance of the organizers of educational work in the subjective profile of practices; insufficient technologization of practices; insufficient development of mechanisms for assessing the effectiveness of educational practices. The identified characteristics and barriers can become the basis for continuing the discussion about promising directions for the development of education in universities. In addition, the characteristics identified in the competition can become the basis for the introduction of effective educational formats, in accordance with the state request, the characteristics of the university environment and the student’s request.

NEW CHALLENGES OF DISTANCE TEACHING AT THE INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL FACULTY DURING THE WAR AND CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC IN UKRAINE

The aim of this work is to address specific challenges related to the organization and future prospects of distance teaching in medical higher education institutions, especially pertinent amidst the current military situation in Ukraine. Materials and methods. In our analysis, we reviewed relevant experiences and documentation, considering the participation of medical students in higher education. The data analysis on student’s performance and engagement in online courses to assess the effectiveness of current distance teaching methods was performed. Results and discussion. The education of medical professionals at international faculties holds significant national importance, contributing to addressing various societal challenges and enhancing Ukraine's educational reputation. However, recent events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and martial law have posed new challenges for distance teaching practices in pedagogy. Ii is crucial for educators who work with international medical students to possess high levels of professionalism and moral integrity. Across the globe, simulation technologies are increasingly employed in medical training, offering innovative methods for preparing highly skilled medical personnel. One such technology is the "virtual patient," which allows learners to engage in realistic clinical scenarios, make diagnostic and treatment decisions, and understand the consequences of their actions without compromising patient safety. The development of communication and language skills among future medical professionals remains a pressing concern within higher education institutions. Utilizing technological storytelling methods to illustrate the journeys of successful specialists can provide valuable insights and inspiration for students. In the context of distance learning, maintaining prompt feedback channels between students and departmental teachers is essential for effective learning outcomes. Conclusion. Practical application of innovative methodological approaches provide with opportunity for teachers of medical higher education institutions to implement and improve the novel methods of work, to increase the effectiveness of the educational process and the level of knowledge of students of the international faculty. Innovative distance learning technologies stimulate the teacher's work, increase his/her professional level, since the organization of the educational process requires preparation for each class, constant pedagogical research, development and use of additional new materials, study of innovative technologies.

Development of a mobile app to optimize organization and assessment for clinical teaching in dentistry

The aim of the current study was to develop an application for mobile devices that can improve the organization and documentation of clinical teaching in dental schools. The app should include a calendar to organize treatments, an overview of all treatments including the treatment stages, a digital waiting-list for the teacher’s assessment, and a standardized recording of all assessment results. Students and members of a Medical Faculty and a Faculty of Computer Science and Business Information Systems jointly developed the app. Twenty-three students tested the usability after 4 weeks. Next, the new app was tried and tested by n = 79 forth-year students who used it for 2 months during their clinical course. Fifth-year students of the same clinical course who did not use the app constituted the control group. Afterwards, the app was standard implemented in both integrated clinical courses and evaluated after 1 year by the same students both in winter and summer semester. After usability test, the majority of students (81%, n = 18) said they would recommend the app and gave it a mean overall score of 2.0 ± 0.6. Next, course organization and assessment was evaluated by n = 75 fourth-year students (95%) who used the app and by n = 40 control students (74%) who did not use the app. Students who used the app reported significantly better organization of treatment ( p = .002), documentation of treatment ( p = .001), waiting for the teacher’s assessment ( p = .038), overview of treatment sessions ( p = .040), and transparency of grading and assessment ( p = .012). After 12 months, the now fifth-year students still gave very good ratings for the organization of the treatment and the transparency of the grading in both evaluations, so that no significant changes were detectable (organization p = .959 and the rating p = .751). The newly created app improves the organization and evaluation of clinical education and even after 1 year of service, the students still perceive the consistently high advantages of digitization.

Residents’ satisfaction and suggestions to improve nephrology residency in Italy, and comparison with the organization in other European countries

BackgroundIn Italy, nephrology residency is available in twenty-one nephrology schools, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. The present study is aimed at exploring the residents’ satisfaction with their training programs.MethodsBetween April 20th and May 19th, 2021, a questionnaire on residency satisfaction consisting of 49 items was sent to 586 residents and 175 recently certified specialists (qualified to practice as nephrologists in 2019 and 2020), with a response rate of 81% and 51%, respectively.The teaching organization was contextualized with a survey involving 13 European nephrology schools.ResultsMost residency fellowship programs received a good rating with regard to “satisfaction”, in particular for the following items: number of hospitalizations followed-up, chronic hemodialysis training, follow-up of transplanted patients, diagnosis and treatment of glomerulonephritis. The teachings that were identified as being of lower quality or insufficient intensity included vascular access management, ultrasound diagnostics and renal nutrition. The need for improvement in formal teaching programs was underlined. Young nephrologists were rather satisfied with their salary and with the quality of the work they were doing, but only few were interested in an academic career since it was generally held that it is “too difficult” to obtain a university position. Many young nephrologists who filled in the questionnaire felt that lack of experience in peritoneal dialysis and vascular access management was a barrier to finding an ideal job. Compared to other European training programs, the Italian program differs with regard to longer exposure to nephrology (as compared to internal medicine), and greater flexibility for internships in different settings, including abroad.ConclusionsThis first nationwide survey on the satisfaction of residents in nephrology indicates that, despite rather good overall satisfaction, there is room for improvement to make nephrology a more appealing choice and to fulfill the needs of a growing number of renal disease patients.Graphical abstract

SCHOOL SYSTEMS OF BAVARIA AND THE REPUBLIC OF SRPSKA – SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES

Education is a requirement for the development and existence of every modern state. This paper will discuss the structure of school systems in the German province of Bavaria and the Republic of Srpska for the level of primary and secondary education. What possible options are available to students aged six to nineteen can be seen in the schematic representations of the Bavarian school system and the same in the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina). Knowing that the economic progress of the country is also reflected in the education of the young generation, the organization of education should be one of the key issues of the government of each country. Comparing the similarities and differences of our school system with the system of other countries, we encourage those in charge to constantly revise the existing system, thereby contributing to reducing its deficiencies and improving teaching practice, and thus the quality of education. In this regard, it is always good to follow trends in the development of school systems in economically developed countries. The teaching organization system is similar, but at the same time different in each country. This can also be seen in the conclusions of this paper. The Western countries school models, especially SR Germany, attract the public attention due to the outflow of the population of the Republic of Srpska to those countries. If we want to prevent or reduce this phenomenon, we must become attractive to our own population and be competitive on the market. This paper points to the need for constant monitoring and modification of the existing school system, as well as its adaptation to global trends. Given that the Balkan countries are ranked far worse than the Western Europe countries in international tests, it would be interesting to deal with the school systems of the Scandinavian countries in some future work.

Педагогическая технология обучения как помощь профессиональному самоопределению студентов-медиков 2 курса средне профессионального образования

Medical profession two-year training within the framework of secondary vocational education presupposes effective organization of educational activity. The article delves into the results of pedagogical technology of teaching professional communication to 2nd year medical students of secondary vocational education, taking into account the difficulties of their professional development revealed in the study of 2021–2022. The aim of the work is to describe the formation of students’ professional communication skills in the process of solving the contradiction between the level of their communicative competence and the requirement of the profession-al community. Cultural-historical theory of L.S. Vygotsky and his theoretical concept of the sensory period of development are the methodological approach of the study, based on which the authors investigate the profes-sional self-determination of medical students. By analyzing the results of the article the difficulties of training were highlighted: communicative incompetence in professional communication, lack of confidence in meeting the requirements of medical institutions. Thus, the pedagogical technology aims to solve these difficulties by supporting the conditions for students to discuss the results of their learning activities.

Development of Synthesis as a General Logical Method of Cognition in the Process of Teaching Mathematics of Students and Future Teachers

General logical cognitive actions form the basis of almost all cognitive methods. This determines the necessity of their purposeful formation in the process of subject teaching. A special role in the development of cognitive methods belongs to mathematics, in the process of teaching which these actions manifest themselves in the most explicit form. In the article we consider the formation of synthesis as a basic general logical method. The purpose of our study is to develop approaches to the organization of subject-based teaching aimed at the formation and development of synthetic thinking of school students and teacher education students. The methodology of the research is the theory of funding of logical constructions, developed on the basis of the concept of funding in education (V. D. Shadrikov, E. I. Smirnov). The results of the study. Examples demonstrating the main types of synthesis in mathematics learning are considered. These types include: synthesis as a leading action in the construction a mathematical model and synthesis as a representation of a logically justified solution to a problem. The problems of synthesis implementation by students in the process of solving mathematical problems are analyzed. The specificity of educational tasks that contribute to the formation of synthetic thinking is studied. The role of combinatorial tasks as tasks with prevailing logical component in the formation of synthetic thinking of students is described. In conclusion, on the basis of the theory of funding, the typification of types of synthesis in school mathematical education is proposed.

Modern Ways of Educating Parents of Children with Adhd

The relevance of the study is substantiated by the lack of modern programs of psychological and pedagogical education of parents of children with ADHD, taking into account the psychological characteristics and expectations of modern parents, against the backdrop of a growing number of children with these developmental characteristics who experience significant difficulties in the educational process. The main goal set by the authors is to identify effective modern methods of psychological education of parents of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, applicable in the context of inclusive education. Methodology. In the course of the study, an analysis of current domestic and foreign scientific publications and scientific and methodological sources was carried out, the method of expert assessments was applied (a survey of specialists of the psychological and pedagogical support service of inclusive schools of the Novosibirsk region and employees of the Regional Center for Diagnostics and Counseling) and a method of studying pedagogical experience (an analysis of programs that are laureates of the “All-Russian competition of the best Psychological and pedagogical programs and technologies in the educational environment” 2021 and 2022 using the methodology of the evidence-based approach). Results. Theoretical analysis and a survey of experts confirmed the relevance of the problem of psychological and pedagogical education of parents, without whose active and competent participation in the organization of educational activities of children with attention deficit and hyperactivity, the efforts of specialists in psychological support of this specific group of children do not give the necessary effect. In addition, difficulties in organizing work with parents are identified and described, and it is shown that specialists face problems when choosing effective methods of education that take into account such features of modern parents as lack of time, orientation to digital sources of information, the need for active dialog interaction with specialists and visual provision of necessary information. It is confirmed that specialists of inclusive educational organizations need additional knowledge about the psychological characteristics of children with ADHD and their parents and in program and methodological materials with proven effectiveness. The results of the analysis of the programs-winners of the All-Russian competition led to conclusions about a clear shortage of program and methodological materials on psychological education of parents of children with ADHD, taking into account, among other things, the psychophysiological characteristics of parents of this group of children. It is shown that so far not all the award-winning programs provided in the register of the best psychological and pedagogical programs of the Federation of Educational Psychologists of the Russian Federation fully meet the criteria of practice with empirically proven effectiveness (evidence-based approach).

A global perspective on school leadership: Evidence from a latent class analysis on OECD TALIS data

Previous research highlighted the existence of multiple educational leadership styles; however, evidence on their multidimensional application is limited. The current study defines an innovative cross-national classification for school leaders along the two dimensions of instructional and distributed leadership. We apply a three-step Latent Class Analysis to transnationally generalizable Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's Teaching and Learning International Survey 2013 data, with N = 9384 school principals surveyed across 32 countries. From here, we identify four sub-groups of leaders: integrating leaders (64.9% of the sample), who adopt instructional and distributed leadership in an integrated way, participative leaders (22.2%) and supportive leaders (8.5%), who are respectively high only on distributed or instructional leadership, and contingent leaders (4.4%), without a specific a priori leadership approach. Features specific to the principals, the schools and the school context are significantly related to leadership sub-group membership and important moderators of the correlation between types of leadership and students’ test scores, as analyzed for a subset of countries. As implications for leadership policy and practice, the cross-country prevalence of integrating leaders might increase the level of organizational complexity, while the geographical distribution of leadership classes highlights the important role played by cultural aspects in influencing leadership practices.
