Formation of Aesthetic Taste in Students of Professional Educational Organization by Means of Decorative and Applied Art

Introduction. The current stage of development of Russian society is characterized by global socio-economic changes that have caused instability in public life, a crisis of society and its main institutions, the destruction of spiritual ideals, which has led to a decrease in the level of morality and spirituality of young people, the level of formation of aesthetic taste. Therefore, the problem of lack of aesthetic tolerance is relevant, which can lead to negative phenomena in society, indifference or an aggressive attitude towards complex aesthetic phenomena that require intellectual perception. The purpose of the study is to develop and theoretically substantiate a didactic model for the formation of students’ aesthetic taste in an educational environment through the means of arts and crafts and to experimentally test its effectiveness. Methodology. To solve the problems, the following research methods were used: theoretical: ascent from the abstract to the concrete, idealization (creation of an ideal object) as a thought experiment; empirical: observation, pedagogical experiment, study of the results of artistic and creative activities of students. Research instruments are the tools that were used to collect and analyze data. We used the following tools: survey (using the survey we found answers to a number of questions that were developed for a specific group of students); an interview that helped gather information about students’ knowledge of arts and crafts; observation – this tool was used to study human behavior in various situations We studied the level of practical skills of students in the implementation of aesthetic ideas when performing an object of decorative and applied art using the association of a picture, which reflects the national idea, historical symbols and connotations – traditions and rituals, epics in the form of traditional shapes and colors, simple symbols, decorative folklore images. Based on the results obtained, in the course of empirical research, we have developed training programs for in-depth mastery of content in the disciplines “Technology” and “Fine Arts”. The thematic curriculum includes the following sections: 1. Russian art of the 18th–20th centuries. in the works of artists (I. E. Repin, M. P. Botkin, A. G. Venetsianov, P. P. Vereshchagin, etc.). 2. History of Russian culture in epics, fables, poems and fairy tales. 3. Russian decorative art. 4. Ornament as a form of Russian philosophy. 5. Ornament in the works of Khokhloma masters. 6. Ornament of Siberian carpets. 7. Understanding of beauty in Russian painting. 8. The property of Russian literature. Results. As a result of the study, a didactic model for the formation of aesthetic taste of students in the educational environment of a college was developed. The experiment confirmed the effectiveness of the developed curriculum and the identified pedagogical conditions that contribute to the most effective formation of aesthetic taste among students of a professional educational organization through the means of decorative and applied arts. Methodological products were adapted to the conditions of the Chelyabinsk Pedagogical College No. 1. After analyzing the problems identified within the framework of the study, programs for the academic disciplines “Fine Arts and Technology” and methodological recommendations for the formation of artistic and aesthetic taste through the means of decorative and applied arts were developed and implemented into the educational process of designers. Conclusions. The developed curriculum, being part of the educational process at aesthetic faculties, contains specific proposals for improving the training of specialists. Particular attention is paid to tasks for students specializing in painting. This allows us to enrich the experience of implementing creative projects and create aesthetically pleasing products of modern design. The methodological products developed during the study can be used in the professional activities of teachers of vocational training in secondary vocational education organizations.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE SYSTEM OF SECONDARY VOCATIONAL EDUCATION IN CHUVASHIA (1920s – 1950s)

In the realities of modern times, a big problem for Russia is the shortage of young professional personnel. Important suppliers of workers are secondary vocational educational institutions. In order to understand how the process of “growing” in-demand specialists occurs, researchers are faced with a number of pressing questions. First of all, it is necessary to find out which educational institutions train personnel in what areas and professions? Therefore, the purpose of this study is to study the development of the secondary vocational education system in the 1920s – 1950s using the example of one of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation – the Chuvash Republic. Materials and methods. The scientific and theoretical basis of the article is headed by the scientific principles of historicism, objectivity, social approach, alternativeness, which fundamentally reflect the study of various processes taking into account the dynamic development and interaction of elements. Research results. An independent stage in the development of the education system and secondary vocational education was associated with the proclamation of Soviet power in the country and the creation of the Chuvash Autonomous Region in 1920. In Chuvashia, there was a need to create independent educational institutions. Technical schools became the most relevant type of educational institutions. In the 1930s. There is an increase in the number of secondary specialized educational institutions, which contributed to the growth in the number of specialized personnel. The training of new specialists was carried out at enterprises in Chuvashia, as well as at special courses. The impetus for increasing the rate of training of workers from among the Chuvash population was the opening of factory apprenticeship schools and workers’ faculties. In the 1940s Schools for working youth were created, and evening schools for rural youth began to function. Conclusions. In modern conditions, secondary vocational education is a sought-after level of education, within which personnel are trained in applied professions, which Chuvashia clearly needs. It is no coincidence that over the more than 100-year period of its development, the republic has created a whole complex of secondary specialized institutions, most of which continue to produce specialists. The first such institutions began to form in the 1920s and 1930s. This period included many difficulties in the education system, which was largely due to the lack of professional teachers and difficulties in the logistics of the social sphere. The period of the end of the Second World War created a new impetus for the opening of vocational education organizations, which was associated with the restoration of the state’s economy. By the early 1950s. There were 22 such educational institutions in the republic, which became an important link in the education system of Chuvashia.

Interaction of the educational organization of secondary vocational education with enterprises-employers

This article deals with the involvement of employers in improving the educational process and active participation in the training of qualified mid-level specialists. All this solves the problem of the isolation of knowledge that graduates receive from practical actions, manifested in the inability to handle modern technological equipment, in psychological unpreparedness for the realities of hard working days, to the management of subordinates, to the norms of behavior. Effective interaction between an educational organization and an employer is one of the topical issues of modern vocational education, which implies integrated actions of the parties interested in this fact. The article notes the need for interaction between the educational organization of secondary professional education and enterprises to improve the eff ective training of graduates, functioning in market conditions. The main mechanisms for organizing a social partnership system as a condition for improving the quality of professional education are presented on the example of an educational organization, the Chita College of Railway Transport of ZABIZHT IrGUPS. The partnership was considered in the field of career guidance and targeted training through new formats of career guidance and a system of long-term personnel planning, in the field of implementing the modernization of the material and technical equipment of the educational and laboratory base through innovative training complexes and branded zones, in the field of educational work and research activities, through creation of an optimal socializing environment and participation in competitive, championship movements.

Personnel training for the forestry complex of the northwestern and Arctic regions of Russia

Introduction. Forestry industry development and management in the North-West and the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation is a national priority, focused on the global competitiveness of the Russian timber industry products. The study aimed to analyze personnel training for forestry, offered by the education system of the North-West and the Arctic zone of Russia, in order to bring the qualities of the graduates of higher and secondary vocational education in line with the needs of the forestry industry in this macro-region. Materials and Methods. The research materials were statistical data from 4 forms of state federal reporting for 2021-2022: on admissions and graduations from the higher education system; graduation from the secondary vocational education system; number of employees of organizations by type of economic activity; demand of organizations by type of economic activity. The methods of descriptive statistics, mathematical modeling and comparative data analysis were used. Research Results. The study determined a list of 20 areas and disciplines of higher and secondary vocational education organizations training qualified personnel for the forestry complex, and formed a group of 19 types of economic activities related to the five main areas of forestry complex work. The scope of annual additional personnel demand of enterprises and organizations of the forestry complex of the Arctic and North-West Russia was calculated with the help of macroeconomic methodology for assessing the economy's demand for qualified personnel. The annual demand for personnel with higher education was 3.54%, for mid-level specialists it reached 4.49%, and for skilled workers and employees – 5.41% of the total number of employees with the appropriate level of education working in the forestry industry. The comparative analysis identified entities where personnel demands could be met by graduates from their region and entities needing additional sources, including graduates from other regions. Discussion and Conclusion. Pronounced lack of own personnel with higher education for enterprises and organizations of the forestry complex was identified in Leningrad Oblast, Chukotka, Nenets and YamaloNenets Autonomous Okrugs. Mid-level specialists currently graduate in sufficient numbers, with the exception of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. In the next two to three years, a significant shortage of qualified workers and employees (more than 90%) is expected in all subjects of the macroregion. A solution to this problem may be targeted training of specialists in other regions, as well as in regions that are well-known educational centers (for example, Tomsk, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk).

Корпоративное обучение сотрудников в партнерстве с высшими учебными заведениями

In the presented work, the issues of the organization of in-house training based on the partnership of a commercial company and an educational organization of vocational education are considered. Continuing education helps professionals climb the corporate ladder and achieve success at work, and also allows corporations to save on expensive external hiring by promoting from within. The article substantiates that in modern conditions, when the gap in the skills that the employer expects from employees and their actual level is quite deep, corporate human resource management systems face the need to take advantage of corporate training, including that implemented on the basis of bilateral cooperation between industrial and academic structures. It is concluded that in conditions of talent shortage, it is extremely important for companies to adopt strategies that promote lifelong learning, professional development and retraining of the workforce.

Beyond acquiescence and compromise: Organizational strategies in pluralizing institutional environments

AbstractWe set out to investigate how organizations respond to the variety of requirements as experienced in their pluralizing institutional environments. We found that, in addition to acquiescence and compromise, Dutch vocational education and training (VET) organizations predominantly respond with cooperation and coordination strategies. Extensive multistage qualitative data analysis of 26 semi‐structured in‐depth interviews with management team (MT) members showed that cooperation and coordination are viable and effective response strategies to face a divergent and highly differentiated set of sometimes‐conflicting institutional requirements. Our study advances understanding of how organizations deploy strategic choice to arrive at their strategic responses. It offers organizational leaders, legislators, policymakers, and other constituents' insights into complex reality of how contemporary organizations actually relate to and act in their pluralizing institutional environments.

Organising opportunities for all: building equity in vocational education and training

ABSTRACT Background Educational opportunities and access vary according to location. In rural areas, the cultural, social and material consequences for local communities depend on the nature and degree of support for rural schools. There is a need to understand more about how the organisation of vocational education and training (VET), and the activities within it, relate to equity. Purpose The research sought to explore how the organisation of VET in a rural area of Norway, involving collaboration between school, training agency and local businesses/institutions, constructed notions of equity in VET. Methods A case study methodology was utilised. In-depth interviews were undertaken with personnel within a rural community (staff representing the school, training agency and businesses/institutions) who were supporting a VET education programme. Data were analysed qualitatively, using a narrative synthesis procedure. Findings Detailed analysis of rich interview data indicated that strong institutional and pedagogical approaches were employed to support students throughout their VET education. According to the participants’ perceptions, the school, training agency and businesses/institutions focused on stabilising each other in the process of supporting equity in VET. Continuing ongoing work and reconstruction of traditions and routines appeared to contribute to the integration of the different actors’ work in organising equity in VET. Conclusions Our study highlights how, in a rural community, opportunities for all in VET may be constructed and reconstructed through ongoing work which is connected to the foundations of the local context. The reconstruction needs to be maintained through networks and connections within and between the school, training agency and the businesses/institutions. This, in turn, can contribute to support for culture and welfare in the community to thrive.

NEW CONCEPT OF PREDICTABLE TIME OFF AND ORGANIZATIONAL WORK DESIGN– ANALYZING THE VERY NATURE OF EMERGING CONTEMPORARY ISSUE

The study focuses on the concept of predictable time off, which is a novel concept practiced in some business organizations. As it is challenging for researchers to derive a model which can simultaneously improve the work processes and the health of the organization simultaneously. In this situation, Predictable Time Off (PTO) is a work redesign model, which can be applied for not only improved work but also for healthier life. The purpose of this research is to assess the suitability of the model for organizations in Eastern Culture (i.e., Pakistani environment). Based on this conception, the study was carried out to examine the association of predictable time off and work design. Thus, the model was tested on a vocational training organization, comprising around 160 institutions and training centers. Around 09 heads of the institutions were interviewed with semi-structured questionnaire. The model was applied with the coordination of principals who were also the heads of the institutions. These sampled institutions heads practice of having five working days and around 45 hours per week, they were interviewed about their time spent at job with its divisions. Findings show that the model can improve their work and personal life, if it is applied properly and if pertinent contextual considerations were given due weightage Keywords: Predictable Time Off (PTO), Work redesign, globalization, technology
