SPATIAL THINKING OF STUDENTS OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS AS AN INDICATOR OF THEIR INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT

The peculiarities of formation of spatial thinking in students of engineering and pedagogical specialties in the course of study of the graphic cycle disciplines have been substantiated. The definitions of “spatial thinking” and “spatial imagination” are clarified. The legitimacy of spatial thinking as an independent mental process, which is associated with the analysis of spatial features and the relationship between elements of real objects (or their graphic images) and application of these features in resolution of design problems by students of engineering specialties of higher education is mentioned.
 The content and basic operational units of spatial thinking in undergraduates during their study of graphic disciplines have been described. The dependence of the level of development of spatial thinking of students on the type of spatial images operating in Descriptive Geometry, drawing, engineering and computer graphics lessons has been specified. There has been offered the typology of students of engineering and pedagogical specialties of pedagogical high school, depending on their level of spatial thinking development and ability to explicit spatial transformations. The initial level of spatial thinking development of the students of the first year of study before the study of the cycle of graphic disciplines in higher education institutions has been also analyzed. The prospects of resolution of the issue of increasing the level of spatial thinking in undergraduates as an indicator of their intellectual development have been outlined in the study.

Information and Communication Technologies of Teaching Higher Mathematics To Students of Engineering Specialties At Technical Universities

Excessive anthropogenic pressure on land resources in Ukraine leads to a deterioration of their quality, and consequently they lose their potential. Human impact on the change of land quality can be direct (by involving land lots in use, carrying out economic activities) and indirect (as a result of such activity, enhancing the natural degradation of soils). The tendency of deterioration of the state of land resources requires the subordination of land relations to the main goal – to ensure comprehensive protection of this major national wealth of Ukraine. Legal support for the protection of agricultural land is considered as a single complex of interdependent elements: legal standards for the protection of land, soil, agricultural landscapes, and the mechanism for their implementation – legally significant measures: economic, organizational, scientific and technical. At the same time, it was concluded that the system of legal regulation of the use of agricultural land is not sufficiently saturated with mechanisms for regulating agricultural activity.

Teaching Reform of “Engineering Chemistry” for Mechanical Electronic Engineering Specialty

“Engineering Chemistry” is a compulsory course designed for non-chemical specialty. The course in Guangdong University of Technology aims to impart students an in-depth knowledge of various aspects of chemistry as applied to engineering. However, in teaching practice for mechanical electronic engineering specialty students, the course was found some problems, such as limited teaching hours, too many contents, little connection with engineering application, and low interests from the students. According to the requirements of mechanical electronic engineering specialty, combining the knowledge of engineering chemistry and the professional features of mechanical electronic engineering, the reforms of teaching contents, teaching methods, assessment methods of the “Engineering Chemistry” course were effectively explored.

Research on Practical Teaching Pattern Based on Simulation Experimental Platform

This paper firstly analyzes the existing problems of traditional teaching pattern of network engineering specialty. The traditional practical teaching patterns have been unable to meet the needs of modern teaching gains and demands because of its limitations such as lack of practicality and flexibility, un-synchronization of practical and theoretical contents. Then, it presents the advantages of simulation experimental teaching model which can cultivate students' autonomous learning ability, develop the practical ability and improve the personalized learning of undergraduates. The proposed model can be very practical, flexible, easy to update and really safe in some dangerous experiments. Finally, a practical teaching pattern based on simulation experimental platform is proposed for the network engineering specialty students training. We clarify the architecture of the integrated simulation laboratory and the experiment curriculum that suitable for carrying out in this simulation system. Practice teaching effects show that the simulation experimental pattern can greatly improve the study passion and efficiency of students. This mode can also be popularized to the other related lessons.
