Культурологические подходы к организации учебно-образовательного процесса по иностранному языку студентов ИТ-специальностей

We consider some culturological approaches in relation to the profile-oriented foreign language training of non-linguist students at the higher school. The planned result of foreign languages teaching is currently described through the concept of foreign language communicative competence, which considers the personality of a student as a set of specific subject skills, knowledge and internal abilities including those, which are related to cultural transformation of the world. The goal of teaching languages consists of four components: practical, developing, upbringing and educational aspects. The practical goal corresponds to specific language knowledge and skills. Development through the process of studying languages is realized by the means of particular methods and techniques. The educational and formative potential is achieved by straightening of the culture-orienting function of the foreign languages educational process. These concrete scientific approaches combine the consideration of the mechanisms of transformation of culture into the world of personality and, accordingly, the influence of a developing personality on changes in cultural forms. We describe general characteristics of the approaches under consideration (socio-cultural, intercultural, multicultural and cultural-axiological) according to possibilities of methodological implementation of their fundamental principles in foreign language classes on the example of students of technical specialties. We consider the described approaches from the position of strengthening the educational potential of the process of foreign languages teaching to students in higher education, associated approaches with the idea of laying the foundations of a humanistically oriented, culturally diverse society, comfortable for personal and professional self-realization. Using the described approaches is advisable to strengthen the educational and upbringing function of foreign language training of students of IT specialties.

ОЦЕНКА АДЕКВАТНОСТИ МАТЕМАТИЧЕСКИХ МОДЕЛЕЙ МЕТАЛЛУРГИЧЕСКИХ ПРОЦЕССОВ В РАМКАХ РЕГРЕССИОННОГО АНАЛИЗА ДАННЫХ В ПАКЕТЕ MATHCAD

This article presents frequently used methods for assessing the quality of regression models and their application in the study of certain metallurgical processes. These models are: R2 coefficient, correlation coefficient, multicollinearity, extrapolation, time systems, engineering prediction, full factorial experiment.Until now, a significant part of researchers have indicated that coefficient is used not only by economists, but also by graduate students of technical specialties as a diagnostic value, while the correction of this coefficient does little. The correlation coefficient is a numerical characteristic of the joint distribution of two random variables, independent of the dimension of the units. This rule applies equally to the correlation coefficient obtained by multiplying two matrixcolumns. The method of data processing in the presence of collinearity (intercorrelation) in them and its elimination is shown. The drawbacks of using the extrapolation method in the process of mathematical modeling are shown. A new forecasting method has been developed, based on finite time series, called the sliding matrix method and consisting in the continuous updating of the coefficients of the regression equation by removing the line with obsolete data from the matrix and entering new lines with data at the predicted point. The method allows you to continuously get rid of the old information “burden”, which allows you to make the forecast more correct. All calculations of the mathematical model were made using the Mathcad software product.

Physical Activity as a Factor to Improve the Quality of Student Life

Introduction. Nowadays, the specialists note a steady decrease in the level of physical, somatic and mental health of modern student’s youth due to intensive computerisation of the educational space, high teaching loads, increased time for self-training, change of social environment and violations of the basic rules of a healthy lifestyle. In order to prevent the negative consequences of these processes in terms of health preservation and improvement of the situation, it is necessary to identify and follow the trends in young people’s quality of life concerning their physical activity, which is an important condition for harmonious development, especially during the period of youth ontogenesis. The aims of the present research were the following: to study the indicators of well-being of senior students of technical specialties and to determine the vector of changes in graduates’ quality of life depending on the degree of their motor activity. Material and research methods . When employing the Russian-language version of the Short Form (36) Health Survey, the students (n = 286) of Irkutsk National Research Technical University (Russia) were examined on a phased basis (7-year time gap). In the course of monitoring procedures, the method of questionnaire surveys was used. The comparison of the obtained data on the physical condition of students of different generations was carried out through comparative analysis. The validity of differences was determined by calculating the Student’s t-test. Results and scientific novelty . The prolonged survey showed that physical activity of girls decreased by 15.2%, boys - by 15.7% in 2019 compared to 2012. The general state of students’ health condition deteriorated (by 22.5% in girls, by 21.3% in boys). The values of indicators such as “role functioning”, “pain intensity”, “mental health”, “emotional state”, “social and life activity” fell substantially. There was a decreased in the number of students, who observe the regulations, recommended by the World Health Organisation for weekly motor activity. Hypodynamia was diagnosed in undergraduates, who have completed an elective course in physical culture and sports. These facts result from the decrease in the number of students motivated to keep a healthy lifestyle and regularly do physical exercises, as confirmed by the students’ questionnaire answers. More than 21% of respondents surveyed that they felt healthy, and therefore they had no need to take care of their well-being; 37.4% of respondents lack the willpower to stay in shape, and 33.9% mentioned that there was no time for physical education. Although interviewees appreciated the importance of physical activity in people’s daily activities, only 30% visited sports sections and only 14% had a morning workout. It is highlighted that in order to preserve the physical and mental health of the nation, the valeological education of students should become a priority in higher educational institutions. Practical significance . The current research findings can serve as the basis for the cooperation of pedagogical technologies of physical education in universities, for the provision of recommendations for the corresponding independent classes of students, and for the organisation of hypodynamia preventive actions. A combination of these measures will contribute to improving the health and quality of life of future professionals.
