General description of technology for future marketologist leadership competence formation in the process of interdisciplinary training

Globalisation and increasing competition have resulted in the increased demand for marketologists without whom today any organisation finds it virtually impossible to operate. However, only a professional with a high level of education, a developed personality, well-informed moral values and an active civil position, who is able to act and think in modern conditions, can compete effectively in the labour market. Leadership should be seen as a necessary component in achieving professional competence, without which full self-realisation of a specialist is not possible. Therefore, the problem of developing leadership competence of future marketologists in the university's educational environment arises. The article highlights the technology aimed at future marketologist leadership competence formation in the process of interdisciplinary training in accordance with the requirements of new standards of higher education for bachelor students majoring in 075 "Marketing" in higher educational establishments. It determines the essence of implementation of student-centered and interdisciplinary approaches as well as the use of interactive learning methods. The purpose of the technology has been determined, methodological approaches and principles of the study have been described. The blocks of technology have been сharacterised which contain the components as follows: targeted, theoretical-methodological, content-organizational and diagnostic-resultative blocks. The stages of implementing the pedagogical technology of future marketologist leadership competence formation into the practice of university education are outlined: orientation-motivational, practical, evaluative-reflexive. Within the mentioned stages, the corresponding forms and methods of organizing the educational process of forming future marketologist leadership competence are presented. The important role of extracurricular activities, internship and research work in formation of future marketologist leadership competence is emphasized, their content and tasks are described.

Technology of development of future choir conductors’ professional competences: system-integrative approach

The article highlights the technology aimed at developing future choir conductors’ professional competences from the standpoint of the system-integrative approach in accordance with the requirements of new standards of higher education for bachelor students majoring in 025 "Musical Arts" in higher educational establishments. It determines the essence of the concepts "system" and "integration" in the context of higher school musical pedagogy as well as characterises the essence of implementation of the system-integrative approach in the process of conductorial-choral training by introducing into the educational process a specific pedagogical model which contains the components as follows: interdisciplinary-cognitive integration, methodical-operational integration, profession- and competence-based integration. It is established that the interdisciplinary-cognitive integration is a synthesis of knowledge units comprehended within special disciplines during the conductorial-choral training which form a new structural and substantive level of each separate discipline in the process of synthesis. It is noted that the methodological-operational integration acts at the intersection of a number of specific field methods dealing with the conductorial-choral disciplines and, as a result of polymodal accumulation of techniques, appears in the form of established professional methodological competences to be generalised, analysed and evaluated; they are based on their methodological knowledge and understanding of their further usage in the process of professional creativity. It is determined that the professional-competence integration is a strategic goal and the final result of the process of conductorial-choral training of the future bachelors: separate professional competences of the future choral conductors are integrated subsystems that jointly form a higher order system − the professional image of a choir conductor. The article systematises and organises professional competences of a future choir conductor, which are formed as a result of the proposed technology of their development on the basis of the system-integrative approach, and are considered as unconditional priorities of choral conductor's professionalism in the course of the polymorphic choir managerial and conductorial-pedagogical activities.

Computer Aided Design of Differential Pressure Flow Meters

New methodology of designing the differential pressure flow meters for fluid energy carriers is developed in order to provide minimum uncertainty of results of flow rate measurement. This methodology is implemented in “Raskhod-RU” CAD system for computer aided design and calculation of differential pressure flow meters. “Raskhod-RU” CAD meets the requirements of new Standards implemented in CIS countries (GOST 8.586.1,2,3,4,5-2005) and provides accomplishment of the following tasks: verification of conditions (constraints) for application of the differential pressure method according to the requirements of new Standards; calculation of parameters of primary device, pipe straight lengths and flow meter in general according to the requirements of new Standards; calculation of uncertainty of results of fluid flow rate and volume measurement.

The use of neural networks in ultrasonic flaw detection

Ultrasound based inspection techniques are used extensively throughout industry for detection of flaws in engineering materials. The range and variety of imperfections encountered is large and critical assessment of location, size, orientation and type is often difficult. In addition, increasing quality requirements of new standards and codes of practice relating to fitness for purpose are placing higher demands on operators. The use of neural networks to support the operator in the initial evaluation and classification process offers advantages in terms of improvement in measurement accuracy and reduction in operator work load. This paper presents an evaluation of various types and configurations of neural networks developed for the purpose of assisting in accurate flaw detection in steel plates. The research presented was conducted using a wide range of samples including non-defective plates, side drilled holes, inclusions and porosity together with smooth and rough cracks. The results obtained indicate that significant benefits may be obtained from the techniques demonstrated.
