Актуальные вопросы учебно-профессиональной мотивации студентов вуза (на примере КГПУ им. В.П. Астафьева)

The article describes the experience of implementing a continuous study of educational and professional motivation of students on the basis of the Krasnoyarsk State University named after V.P. Astafiev. The author considers educational and professional motivation as a predictor of personal and career prospects, and discusses the need for both a broad study of the motivational profile of the personalities of university students, and the implementation of the results obtained in real educational practice through the development and implementation of programs for psychological and pedagogical support of personal and professional self-determination of students, educational work and advisory activities of a psychologist in support of the course of age-related personality crises of students. The results of a study conducted on a sample of 613 university students demonstrate a pronounced motivational gap at the age of 20, which suggests possible reasons for the sharp decline in educational and professional motivation - the lack of psychological and pedagogical support for students in the course of a youth crisis (identity crisis) or the beginning of a quarter crisis. life. Both assumptions demonstrate the urgent need for psychological support for university students, including the development and implementation of both programs of psychological and pedagogical support for students (including crisis ones), and work on methodological enrichment of the content of disciplines and educational activities in order to systematically implement the individualization and differentiation of the educational process.

Эмоционально-личностные детерминанты профессиональной идентичности старшеклассников

<p>The determinants’ (prerequisites’) analysis of high school students’ professional identity (PI) allows us to predict the degree of its formation and dependence on them, as well as to outline ways to overcome the crisis of choosing a profession. Total number of participants N=82. The research methods are the following: SACS; Method for Studying PI Statuses (A.A. Azbel); Personal Anxiety Test by C.D. Spielberger (adapted by A.S. Kuznetsova); BPAQ (A. Buss, M. Perry); Method for Diagnosing Teaching Motivation and Emotional Attitude to Learning (A.M. Prikhozhan). The motivational, emotional and personal determinants that affect the schoolchildren’s PI development are revealed. It is shown that in the conditions of professional self-determination, most schoolchildren have the status of PI "moratorium", and the need to make a decision about choosing a profession causes emotional tension in them. A high level of personal anxiety negatively affects the PI formation and provokes manifestations of aggressiveness, and constructive coping behavior is positive, contributing to a way out of the crisis. Alsoб the PI determinants are profilization, attitude to study and cognitive motivation. The results make it possible to purposefully organize psychological and pedagogical support for students in choosing a profession.</p>

HUMANISTIC PRINCIPLES OF FORMING SPIRITUAL VALUES OF STUDENTS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The article is devoted to the problems of forming spiritual values of students in the educational process of higher education institution. The author defines the term “spiritual values of student youth” and specifies the structural components of this personal complex of features. The article presents a series of pedagogical conditions, forms and methods of education that will promote the spiritual and value self-affirmation of the student's personality. The author reveals the content and peculiarities of pedagogical support in the process of forming the spiritual values of student youth in the center of modern high school education. The process of developing the spiritual values of higher education students in institutional settings involves the disclosure of young men and women's own personal characteristics, self-knowledge and self-awareness of the possibilities for a creative life structure. Spiritual values are offered by socially valuable landmarks, relationships with others, moral beliefs, students' ability to organize their own life activities in accordance with accepted norms of behavior. In addition, it can be said that society and the individual are connected by moral qualities that represent spiritual values in an emotionally fixed form. An important condition for the formation of spiritual values of students of higher education institutions is pedagogical support of students in moral self-determination, individual spiritual values. Pedagogical support has value if it is willful, targeted, tactful, competent, dosed, has everyday nature, and most importantly, if it fully works for the perspective and fulfills its educational purpose in all cases. Pedagogical support for the formation of students' spiritual values should be systematic and include the following factors: the need to optimize communication and increase the level of the teacher's personality development; the ability to define an individual communication style; availability of a flexible and creative approach to the problems of educational interaction; the subjects' desire for self-development. In the individual support of students of higher education for the disclosure of their spiritual values, five interrelated stages can be distinguished (diagnostic, exploratory design, active; reflective), each of which ensures the development of various forms, methods, and means of educational activity.

Pre-Service Training of Elementary School Teachers for Organization of Inclusive Learning Environment

The paper highlights the ongoing challenges and barriers of training teachers to implement inclusive education in various types of schools. The study has identified theoretical aspects and the importance of professional training of future elementary school teachers to organize an inclusive educational environment. It has produced an analysis of the international and national legislative and normative documents that regulate and support inclusion in educational institutions of Ukraine. The author has performed a substantial analysis of scholarly texts and publications on the researched topic and defined the present challenges in psychological and pedagogical theory in historical and pedagogical context. Considerable attention is paid to the study of research of Ukrainian scholars on organization of education activities and use of innovative pedagogical technologies in the context of including persons with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Various aspects of training pre-service teachers for effective implementation of inclusive education have been outlined: individualization of instructing in an inclusive classroom, use of information and communication technologies, application of art and music therapy tools for special needs services and speech therapy activities for development of language and speech skills in preschoolers and elementary school students, organizational and methodological foundations of special education and rehabilitation settings of universities, teacher training institutes and colleges.

The emphasis is placed on the use of effective innovation strategies and practices, the development of a coordinated program of pre-service and in-service teacher training, mutual interaction and cooperation (local and international) in an inclusive educational community. It has been found that the creation of an effective inclusive educational environment in modern elementary schools is determined by the level of professional capacity and motivation of teachers to implement relevant tasks in practice.

Impact of the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic on French Health students

ContextIn France, care workers and health students have been intensely mobilized during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. But few studies have evaluated psychological distress on non-medical health students, in addition to the challenges posed by pedagogical continuity while universities are closed following health and safety regulations. ObjectivesThis study aims to assess COVID-19's impact on health students in France on different levels: psychological, educational and social. MethodsAn online national cross-sectional study, from April 11 to May 30 2020, included sociodemographic, work conditions and numeric scales. ResultsA total of 4411 students answered. Regarding the K6 scale, 39% of students had moderate distress, and 21% had a high level of distress. Risk factors of psychological distress included being a woman (P<0.001), being between 19 and 21 years old (P<0.001), living alone (P=0.008), and not having the ability to isolate (P<0.001). Students on the frontline had less psychological distress (57 vs 62%, P=0.003), better quality of sleep (34% vs 28% high quality, P<0.001) but a higher consumption of medical (8.5% vs 6.5%, P=0.044) and non-medical (18% vs 10%, P<0.001) psychotropic drugs. Nurse and medical students had more distress and used more non-medical psychotropic substances than other health students (15% vs 9.2%). DiscussionCOVID-19’ crisis had an important impact on health students’ mental health, social life and training with discrepancies regarding the speciality whether they were on the frontline or not. There is an urgent need for psychological and pedagogical support for students, and even more so regarding the prolongation of the COVID-19 epidemic.

Pedagogical Support of Socio-Professional Self-Determination of Students

Recently, the prevailing trend is that graduates do not work in their profession; the purpose of the article is to study ways to improve the effectiveness of social and professional self-determination of students. The authors conducted an empirical study of the causes of this phenomenon and identified the main ones (the choice was made for the student by his parents; in the process of studying, the student became disillusioned with the chosen profession; the chosen profession does not bring the necessary earnings; did not find a job in the speciality). The article noted that the percentage of work in the profession depends on how long ago the specialist graduated from the university. The authors identified what causes could be eliminated in the process of teaching students. Having analyzed the existing pedagogical methods for students' more confident social and professional self-determination, the authors proposed the conceptual foundations of pedagogical support for students' social and professional self-determination. These recommendations will make it possible to correct students' social and professional self-determination in their speciality. The authors proposed an algorithm that allows to visually and transparently determine the student's attitude to the chosen speciality and ways to persuade the student to look for a job and work in the profession and the necessary tools for this. The proposed dual approach to adjusting the socio-professional self-determination of students will allow them to identify the problem at an early stage, track it and fix it with adjustment. Research has shown that there are several main reasons why a student does not work in a profession. All these reasons, in our opinion, are subject to correction in the learning process. The main feature of success is the desire of the university to identify such students at an early stage, a developed adjustment mechanism and constant control and monitoring. A further promising direction of research is the development of questionnaires that can identify this problem and a mechanism for attracting artificial intelligence that can guide each student individually and signal when the university's intervention is necessary.

Психолого-педагогічний супровід організації дослідницької діяльності учнів в освітньому процесі нової української школи

Моделирование психолого-педагогического сопровождения студентов с особыми образовательными потребностями в вузе в условиях инклюзивного образования

In Kazakhstan, there is a significant activation of inclusive processes in the higher education system. It is impossible to consider teaching students with special educational needs at a university without creating an inclusive educational environment and implementing psychological and pedagogical support measures. In this regard, there is a need to study the basics of psychological and pedagogical support of persons with disabilities at the university. Inclusive education involves the formation and support of such an integrative psychological and pedagogical space in which neither students with special needs nor students with conditionally normative development will experience difficulties in the process of interaction. The purpose of the study is to analyze the activities of a teacher-psychologist and tutor when accompanying students with special needs in higher education. Based on the data obtained, a model of psychological and pedagogical support of students with special educational needs in higher educational institutions was developed. The implementation of an effective model of support for students with disabilities at universities determines appropriate psychological and pedagogical prerequisites for the development of inclusive higher education. The successful integration of persons with disabilities into the social space of the university has an immense impact on the formation of a positive perception in the learning environment of students. Moreover, it contributes to their positive assimilation of the training program. Within the framework of this article tries to investigate the regulatory and legal framework of inclusive education in the Republic of Kazakhstan, its approaches, principles, and methods of implementing psychological and pedagogical support for students with special needs at universities.

Remodelling the role of facilitating conditions for Google Classroom acceptance: A revision of UTAUT2

Online learning environments have become a contemporary component of global tertiary education due to their affordances. These environments are hinged on internet-based learning management systems and one such tool is Google Classroom. However, empirical studies have indicated that gaps exist in determining how Google Classroom influences students’ behavioural intention to use it for online learning. Accordingly, this study defines a model based on the unified theory of acceptance and technology 2 (UTAUT2) to examine the relationship between facilitating conditions and other variables towards intention formation for Google Classroom usage. Based on a mixed method using the explanatory sequential design, survey data from 163 students were initially analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling followed by a qualitative approach based on open-ended questions for thematic analysis. Results from the partial least squares structural equation modelling approach validated the hypothesised model confirming the significant predictive relationship of facilitating conditions with effort expectancy, hedonic motivation, habit and social influence but had an insignificant relationship with behavioural intention. Furthermore, hedonic motivation and habit were the main predictors of behavioural intention by masking the role of facilitating conditions. Subsequently, the qualitative outcome indicated that habit and perceived control of using Google applications influence hedonic motivation. Finally, recommendations were made to universities towards policy formation and practice of virtual learning using Google Classroom.&#x0D; Implications for practice or policy:&#x0D; &#x0D; Higher education institutions should create an environment for students to be motivated and enjoy Google Classroom use.&#x0D; Universities should provide Internet, technical and pedagogical support for students’ Google Classroom use.&#x0D; Universities should explain to students the affordances of using Google Classroom.&#x0D; Universities should encourage students to acquire access gadgets (smartphones or tablets) for Google Classroom use.&#x0D;
