THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF USING INFORMATION AND COGNITIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE TRAINING OF TRANSPORT SPECIALISTS

The article addresses how to improve the professional training of specialists in the transport industry using information and cognitive technologies. The article aims to study and explain the problems, opportunities, and prospects of implementing and using information and cognitive technologies in the educational environment, as well as the specifics of their implementation for teaching and learning in educational and professional programs for the trans- port specialists’ training. The following methods of semantic and comparative analysis, classification, generalization, and sys- tematization, as well as competency-based, technological, and creative development approaches were used in the research. It has been found that cognitive technologies in the context of teaching and learning involve the use of methods and tools, which are based on understanding and activating cognitive processes such as think- ing, memory, and attention. In cognitive learning, the educational process focuses not on absorbing infor- mation but on understanding the internal connections of the studied subjects, which encourages students to engage in dialogical, exploratory thinking, and increases mental activity concentration. By complement- ing information technologies with cognitive ones, which take into account the individual and general cog- nitive students’ abilities, it is possible not only to encourage professional training but also to enhance the overall cognitive efficiency of future specialists. For educators, these technologies facilitate the use of ICT as cognitive tools for transitioning from traditional teacher-centred methods to constructivist student-cen- tred approaches. It has been established that information-cognitive technologies combine methods and algorithms based on insights into the cognition processes, learning, communication, and information processing, grounded in the achievements of neuroscience, digital and information technologies, and the mathematical modelling of consciousness. In the educational process, they are designed to support students in setting and solving cre- ative tasks that are difficult to formalize, as well as to reveal and effectively operate their cognitive potential. In the professional training of students, certain information-cognitive technologies can be applied both with and without the use of computer systems. These include technologies for developing critical thinking, creatively developmental technologies, project technologies, foresight methodologies, problem-based learn- ing technologies, mastery learning technologies, mental activity activation technologies, case studies, gaming technologies, visualization and data representation technologies, and learning through practice. Additionally, the use of multimedia technologies, scribing, virtual and augmented reality, project technologies based on networking, gamification, interactive technologies, primarily group work technol- ogies, open, distance, and blended learning technologies, and also the Internet of Things, Blockchain, Big Data, expert systems, SMART technologies, and artificial intelligence significantly enhances the quality of training students in proficiency transport area. It has been concluded that information and cognitive technologies provide interactive, personalized, and practically oriented learning, contribute to the development of student’s critical thinking, and for fu- ture transport specialists can optimize logistics processes, automate diagnostics, repair, and operation of vehicles, in addition, increase the specialist’s adaptability to the complex conditions of the modern and fu- ture professional environment.

It has been proven that the result of forming a journalist's personal brand will be effective when the process begins during the professional training of students in an educational institution, and the concept of formation and development of the personal brand of Ukrainian journalists will be created at the state level.

The Specifics of Well-Being, Activity and Mood as Components of the Emotional Health of Students

Background. The professional training of students has dramatically changed over the COVID-19 pandemic with new conditions of education: transition to online learning, partial isolation, and loss of some means of communication. In addition, there are challenges in recovering mental, psychological, physical, and physiological health of students in the post-COVID period. The result is that the emotions and volition of young students have significantly transformed and influenced well-being, activity, and mood as components of students’ emotional health.
 Purpose. To define the specifics of well-being, activity, and mood as components of the emotional health of young students in the COVID and post-COVID periods.
 Methods and materials. 645 major students from Moscow universities were included on a voluntary basis in a sample. The authors applied five original methods for identifying the interrelation between personal problems’ impact on health status, health status itself, health self-assessment, well-being, emotional health, and body intoxication.
 Results. In the COVID-19 period, there were observed a high correlation between the average level of activity and the average level of health status and body intoxication, a moderate correlation between the average level of activity and the below-average level of personal problems’ impact on health status, health self-assessment, well-being, mood and emotional health, a moderate correlation between the average level of health status and the below-average level of health self-assessment, mood and emotional health, and a moderate correlation between the average level of body intoxication and the below-average level of well-being, mood and emotional health. In the post-COVID period, there were observed a high correlation between the average level of well-being, activity and mood and the average level of personal problems’ impact on health status, health status, health self-assessment, emotional health and body intoxication.

ملامح تشكيل المهارات الأدائية لطلاب آلة الكمان في نظام التعليم الموسيقي العالي

Modern music pedagogy aims to develop progressive forms of learning and create new technologies to modernize the educational process and increase its effectiveness. The main task for music-pedagogical educational institutions is to bridge the gap between artistic ideas, interpretive intentions, and technical abilities in the professional training of students, in order to achieve a well-rounded development of all performance qualities. Under these circumstances, the issue of developing the performance skills of violin students in music-pedagogical education systems holds significant global importance and requires urgent research and development. Solving this task will contribute to improving vocational training for students in educational institutions and universities that train performers and teachers. Additionally, it will enhance the development of effective teaching methods by providing students with practical experience not only in performance but also in teaching the violin. Drawing from foreign experiences in this field can have a positive impact on the productivity and validity of research aimed at modernizing local education, making it an additional source for development and enrichment. Although resources may currently be scarce and insufficient, the global trend is to continuously increase and reevaluate existing resources and methods. Examining the techniques, approaches, and studies of violinists helps in developing more effective performance techniques. The techniques of the violin instrument have a long history of development and have always been of interest to musicians and methodologies. Methods have evolved and improved based on various factors, such as the development of music, its relevance to different musical periods and cultural contexts, and advancements in the design of the instrument. These methods are constantly evolving to meet specific technical requirements and specifications. It is important to emphasize that contemporary performers are often not limited to rigid interpretations of musical texts. They strive to find their own unique interpretations, which may at times diverge from the original ideas and intentions of the composer.

EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: IMPLEMENTING EXPERIENCE AND PRACTICE OF EUROPEAN COUNTRIES

The article analyzes the experience of the leading European countries in implementing the concept of Education for Sustainable development (ESD). Official documents, which are the foundation of ESD policy, are studied and the works of leading scientists and pedagogues related to the issue are characterized. ESD provides learners with appropriate and up to date information on how to organize their life in a way that is friendly to environment and other people. It requires universities to shift education and professional training of students from a knowledge- to a more competence-based approach in their national curricula. This approach encourages the development of students’ sustainability competences. It also enables them to implement sustainability values, and embrace complex skills necessary to take or request action that restores and maintains eco-system health, enhances justice and generates visions for sustainable future. The core document used in higher education system of European countries to develop students’ ESD competences is “GreenComp – The European sustainability competence framework” which includes 4 competence areas and 12 competences that together make up a pillar for sustainability practice. ESD requires universities to promote transformative changes in learning in 4 different ways: 1) pluralizing limited agendas; 2) empowering collective influence; 3) politicizing power relations; 4) embedding learning systems. It is stressed that universities must implement ESD based on connectivism principle. Specific examples of this principle in action are described in the article. They include Urban Living Labs, which are a kind of collaboration aimed at implementing joint projects in the field of urban development and infrastructure improvement, and Academic Consultancy Training for master degree students in which they cooperate with students of other educational programs (specialties) and stakeholders to conduct interdisciplinary research and learning. To outline the ways European experience can be used in developing countries, namely Ukraine, legislative documents of the country related to ESD were characterized and the corresponding activities of Ukrainian universities (on the example of Khmelnytskyi National University) were described. In the result, a set of recommendations was prepared on how to improve the policy of ESD in developing countries using European experience.

Psychometric analysis of the revised CompLEC test to measure reading speed and reading comprehension in university students

BackgroundAt university level, reading comprehension is one of the most important linguistic competences in the professional training of students because it is an instrument that enables the acquisition and production of scientific knowledge. Likewise, at this level of education, speed reading becomes a technique that allows to make the most of the time devoted to reading and to develop the ability to concentrate. However, there are not many instruments in the scientific literature that measure these two variables; therefore, the objective of this study was: To determine the psychometric properties of the revised compLEC test to measure reading comprehension and speed in university students.MethodThe study was conducted under the quantitative approach, applied type, with non-experimental design. The type of sampling used was non-probabilistic and the sample consisted of 441 university students of both genders. The instrument prepared and applied was the Reading Speed and Reading Comprehension Test for Higher Education, which is an adaptation of the CompLEC test.ResultsIn the study, all the items had values above 0.80, which shows that the items were rated positively in terms of pertinence, relevance, and clarity. It was also evidenced that the model of three related factors presents adequate fit indices (CFI = 0.91; TLI = 0.90; RMSEA = 0.034 [IC90% 0.021 ‒ 0.046]; SRMR = 0.072). On the other hand, only the Recovery dimension (ordinal α = 0.62) presented acceptable reliability indices.ConclusionThe results show that the Reading Speed and Reading Comprehension Test for Higher Education has adequate psychometric characteristics in terms of content validity and internal structure of the scale. However, further studies are required to confirm the reliability of the scale.

Formation of Students’ Legal Consciousness and Civic Position in Higher Education Institutions

Introduction. The principles and values, which form and keep functioning the civil society, should be a priority for all the present and future generations of citizens of the country. At the same time, the theoretical understanding of these categories should be backed up by their practical implementation. Therefore, the article aims at conducting the experimental pedagogical study of the problematic aspects of legal consciousness development for enabling a comprehensive assessment of the civic position maturity level of higher education teachers and students.Materials and Methods. The pedagogical activity management process in a Higher Education Institution and the work of tutors served the material for the present research. The research was conducted using a set of general scientific and specific scientific methods targeted at analysis and systematisation of the relevant materials, as well as at practical and experimental investigation.Results. The content of educators’ and students’ work on development of self-consciousness was considered during both in-class and extracurricular activities. Among the fundamental principles of the pedagogical activity management, the principles of legal consciousness and citizenship, democracy, as well as tolerance and civic actions engagement experience were defined. The features of tutors' work targeted at students’ legal consciousness and civic position formation were also analysed. In addition, the article focused at the need to form and strengthen partnerships with the general public, educational institutions, authorities and business.Discussion and Conclusions. The manageability of the civic self-consciousness development process has been revealed as the main result of the authors’ analytical research. The essential pedagogical requirements for this process have been distinguished: setting up interaction among all participants of this process both during educational as well as extracurricular activities, considering student professional training specifics and involvement of the general public into the process of self-consciousness development. The need to sensitize the teaching methods fostering students’ legal consciousness and citizenship formation has also been mentioned among the pedagogical requirements. The efficiency has been proved of setting up the temporary pedagogical communities of experts working directly with students and elaborating the specialised approaches designated to form the above-mentioned qualities in students through promotion of the special topics and issues within the curricula courses, the study of which can multiply the efficiency of the civil legal consciousness development efforts. The tutor activities programme aimed at students’ civic position formation has been worked out and suggested; step-by-step monitoring of students’ civic position formation process has also been envisaged.

Comparative analysis of the curriculum of the previous standard of training and the Core of Higher pedagogical education as a way to reveal the problems of artistic training at the pedagogical university

The article revealsthe problem and actualization of the chosen topic. The assumption about the relationship between the ideological concept of Russian education and the problems existing in it is touched upon using the example of training teachers of fine arts in drawing, painting and composition. The study was carried out at the Department of Fine Arts and Methods of its Teaching of Blagoveshchensk State Pedagogical University. The analysis of the three modules of the curricula made it possible to identify changes in the practical content in the art disciplines, as well as the influence of this factor on the professional training of students. Particular emphasis was placed on comparing the number of credits in disciplines in different standards. The task of this work is to determine the prospects for improving the preparation of bachelors through a comparative analysis of the workshop and examination control in different standards. The changes made in the Core of higher pedagogical education show a trend towards a decrease in practical training in disciplines in favor of studying additional subjects, which negatively affects the level of training of bachelors. This situation is explained by the fact that, despite the improvement of some key aspects, such as the endto-end formation of competencies and others, in essence the Core of higher pedagogical education is still built on the Bologna principles.

Использование виртуальной реальности при обучении иностранному языку в Финляндии будущих медицинских сестер

Within the framework of this article, the Finnish experience of using virtual reality in teaching a foreign language to future nurses is considered. Immersion in the language environment is a well-established method of teaching a foreign language for a long time. To date, the KulttuuriOsaaja (“Cultural Expert”) project has been launched in Finland, implemented by the University of Oulu and the universities of applied sciences in Lapland. As part of the implementation of this project, a virtual reality simulation game was developed based on the use of online speech recognition technologies. The aim of the work was to study the Finnish experience of using the game-simulator of virtual reality in the process of language training of students studying in the specialty “nurse”. As a method, a logical analysis of general scientific literature and primary sources was used. The author comes to the conclusion about the relevance of using this technology in education in the modern period, since it contributes to the integration of general education and professional training of students and the formation of professional competencies of a future medical specialist. At the same time, such simulation games can be used in teaching students of any other specialties, which requires a good command of any foreign language.

COGNITIVE PROCESS FEATURES OF HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS IN THE MODERN INFORMATION ENVIRONMENT

It is substantiated in the psychological and pedagogical context the necessity of studying the characteristics of the digital generation, which are represented by modern students in accordance with the theory of generations by W. Strauss and N. Howe. It is determined that the cognitive process transformations and psychological characteristics of the individual, which reflect the phenomenon of clip thinking, exacerbate the problems of higher education student professional training. The essence of the phenomenon is the interrupted display of the information flow with a high speed of switching information fragments, without taking into account the connections between them, contributing to the lack of perception integrity of the information content and its reflective assimilation. Its main advantages are the high speed of information processing, dynamism in cognitive activity, accelerated and protective brain reaction to a large amount of information. At the same time, its key disadvantages are interpreted as the inability to perceive a long linear sequence of homogeneous information, including book texts; reduced attention span and lower academic performance and knowledge acquisition; increased inability to isolate the main point or think critically. The main ways of effective pedagogical interaction with students of the digital generation in the educational process are the active use of mobile learning, the combination of high-quality content and interesting interactive elements; computer visualisation of educational information, modification of the presentation format through creolized texts, the introduction of ideas of fragmentary presentation of material with preliminary structuring and its gradual deepening; the introduction of technologies for the development of critical thinking, including the method of “6 journalistic questions”.
 Keywords: higher education student; digital generation; cognitive processes; clip thinking; multitasking; reduced attention span; online content; visualization; critical thinking.

Pediatric Ventilation Skills by Non-Healthcare Students: Effectiveness, Self-Perception, and Preference

Since a great number of infant cardiopulmonary arrests occur outside of the hospital, it is crucial to train laypersons in cardiopulmonary resuscitation techniques, especially those professionals that will work with infants and children. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efectiveness of ventilations performed by professional training students. The secondary objective was to analyze the preference between different ventilation and chest-compression methods. The sample consisted of 32 professional training students, 15 preschool students, and 17 physical education students. The activity was conducted separately for each group, and we provided a 10 min theoretical training about infant basic life support followed by a 45 min practical training using a Laerdal Little Anne QCPR CPR manikin. A practical test in pairs was organized to record the ventilation as performed by the participants, establishing the difference between the efficacious and the non-efficacious ones. Furthermore, we handed out a survey before and after training to evaluate their knowledge. More than 90% of the students completely agreed with the importance of learning cardiopulmonary resuscitation techniques for their professional future. More than half of the sample considered that they perform the rescue breathings with the mouth-to-mouth method better. We observed that through mouth-to-mouth-nose ventilations, the number of effective ventilations was significantly higher than the effective ventilations provided by a self-inflating bag and mask (EffectiveMtoMN 6.42 ± 4.27 vs. EffectiveMask 4.75 ± 3.63 (p = 0.007)), which was the preferred method. In terms of the compression method, hands encircling the chest was preferred by more than 85% of students. Mouth-to-mouth nose ventilation is more efficient than bag-face-mask ventilation in CPR as performed by professional training and physical activity students. This fact must be considered to provide higher-quality training sessions to professional training students.
