Boykova K. Risk management in the context of project work in education

Abstract: Each project is initiated and implemented in an environment of ambiguity, and there always is a certain risk in achieving its goals. This risk needs to be managed. The process of risk management is a series of actions aimed at the identification, analysis, evaluation, response and monitoring of potential risk events or situations that may negatively af- fect the objectives of the project and provide a reasonable belief that these objectives will be achieved. In the following report there are various approaches, procedures and methods of risk management in project activities. It also outlines the  major  risk  characteristics  and  potential  sources:  internal  and  external.  Risk  management  is  viewed  as  a  complex, continuous  and  multidimensional  process  that  is  ongoing  throughout  the  project  life  cycle  and  goes  through  various stages: risk identification, analysis and risk assessment, cautionary measures to prevent or reduce the impact of risk to an acceptable levels, monitoring (control) risk. Some of the most popular strategies against risk are presented – avoiding (elimination) risk, accepting (tolerance) risk, reducing (imitating) risk and transferring (sharing) it. The second part of the report is devoted to the results of potential risks identification in the implementation of an educational project relat- ed to the ongoing training of kindergarten teachers in the Republic of Bulgaria. This training is realized featuring teach- ers form Plovdiv University’s Pedagogy Department as tutors. There are also some specific measures to counteract the risks identified in the activity. The parameters set for the report volume allow inclusion of only a small portion of the identified risks and measures to counteract, and require them to be presented descriptively in the textual version, not the table of risk (as in the original).  

Keywords: risk, risk management, measures to counteract the risk, project work, educational project.

Solodka A. K. Development of cross-cultural training

Abstract:  Programs  designed  for  preparing  people  for  living  in  another  culture  are  usually  referred  to  as  “Cross- Cultural or Intercultural Orientation Programs.” It seems that the early practitioners and researchers viewed preparing people for international assignment as a process in which one needed to be oriented to the differences in social interac- tions between the two cultures. It is no surprise that the first book on the topic was titled  Cross-Cultural Orientation Programs, and the tradition has been maintained over the years and people still refer to the field as Cross-Cultural Ori- entation. However, researchers and practitioners alike are realizing that we need to do more than orient people to pre- pare them to live abroad (e.g., we must introduce and practice culturally appropriate behaviors), and the field is being referred to as Cross-Cultural or Intercultural Training by more and more people. Cross-cultural orientation is defined as training  programs  designed  to  prepare people  to  live  and  carry  out  specific  assignments  as  well  as  those  that  are  de- signed to prepare people to return to their  home country after completing their assignment in another culture. Cross- cultural training is considered as formal efforts to prepare people for more effective interpersonal relations and for job success  when they interact extensively  with individuals  from cultures other than  their own. Features of programs are that they are formal rather than the set of informal and unplanned behaviors that everyone undertakes when they live in another country, well-planned, budgeted, and staffed by experts who are knowledgeable about the wide range of issues people face when they live in other cultures. In addition, the scope of cross-cultural training has been expanded over the years to not only preparing people for reentry but also preparing people within one’s own country to deal with people who are from another culture. In this paper we review landmark studies and trace the evolution of concepts that have become a part of the vocabulary of cross-cultural training researchers and practitioners in the last fifty years. We discuss research and practice in phases of decades. Starting with the fifties and sixties when the foundation of the field was laid down, we discuss how the field saw early consolidation in the seventies and maturity in the eighties. We finally discuss the state of the art,  both in terms of research and practice, in the  nineties, and go on to identify  major streams of re- search in the field. We end the paper with some perspective about where the field may be going in future. 

Keywords: cross-cultural education, cross-cultural orientation, cross-cultural interaction, cross-cultural assimilator

Bezuglaya M. V. Value of modern education

Abstract. The author of the article investigates one of the major problems of nowadays and defines possible ways of its decision in conditions of domination of mass culture, substitution of true values by false. In the article an attempt has been made to characterize the views about modern education value. And also special attention is paid to the necessity of formation  of  spiritual  and  cultural  values  of  education  as  bases  of  harmonious  all-around  development  of  the  well- educated, intelligent spiritual and cultural personality. Views of modern scientists concerning possible ways of transi- tion from economic age towards cultural age are analyzed. The author of article focuses attention on the difficulties in- terfering familiarizing of rising generations with spiritual and cultural heritage of the mankind. Positions of modern sci- entists concerning classification of education values are analyzed. In the article author’s definition of values of educa- tion is given. Values of education appear to be the whole set of intellectual, moral, cultural and spiritual priorities that are the reference points of personality self-realization in all the spheres of vital activity. The author of article pays atten- tion to the fact that education plays much important role in the society than simple sphere of knowledge. In the modern world it carries out culturecreative and personcreative functions that contribute to spiritual development of the personal- ity. The author of the article accentuates that the very culture lifting, development of cultural wealth as major stimulus of spiritual restoration and revival is the way to person rescue from self-damage and self-destruction. Thus, education and upbringing based on comprehension of cultural values, are capable to generate at rising generation proof immunity to negative displays in the society. The author of the article underlines that comprehension of the necessity of spiritual and cultural development of the personality, formation of  spiritual and cultural values is the first  step to cultural age transition.  

Keywords:  value  of  education,  spiritual  and  cultural  values  of  education,  economical  worldview,  cultural worldview, mass culture.

Budnyk O. B. Social and pedagogical activity of a teacher: philosophical aspect

Abstract. The article considers the essence of social and pedagogical activity in terms of philosophical approach. The author presents various interpreta- tions of the researched phenomenon in philosophical sources starting from such ancient Greek philosophers as Pythago- ras, Socrates,  Plato,  Aristotle, Goethe, Kant,  Hegel, Fichte  and others, as  well as Ukrainian classicists H. Skovoroda, I. Franko and others. The author grounds that in philosophical sense the activity is considered to be a conscious active human interaction with the environment, the end result of which is to produce the items of material or spiritual culture. The notion of “activity” is closely connected with creativity, determination of social relationships, practice, and spiritual priorities  of  a  human.  In  the  process  of  social  activity  the  formation  and  development  of  a  human  as  a  personality, his/her subjectization-dissubjectization as a dialectical interaction for revealing personally and professionally significant values of a general cultural development of the experience of a mankind take place. Thus, there is a close relationship between philosophical knowledge and practical activity of a human that is based on a combination of biological and so- cial factors. Since a human is social historical, active being and is capable of spiritual and practical comprehension of the world, the importance of his/her personality is determined by the level of social and spiritual becoming in the activi- ty, including social and pedagogical activity. Methodological analysis of the philosophical understanding of the essence of social and pedagogical activity at the level of the individual (person, subject of the activity, teacher), special (activity, social understanding of the reality) and general (world, society, social and cultural experience) enabled the revealing of multidimensionality of the outlined the concept and identification of isomorphism of its constituent components as an integrated system of human reality. 

Keywords: social and pedagogical activity, social interaction, systemic perception of the world, activity approach, philosophy of activity.

Gnezdilova K. N. Ways to develop teamwork skills of postgraduate students trained to be future uni- versity instructors as an indicator of their corporate culture

Abstract. The paper addresses the issue of how a future university instructor acquires corporate culture during the mas- ter  training.  The  author  introduces  diagnostic  results  that  show  the  university  corporate  culture  level  and  identify  the components of the instructor’s corporate culture. These data indicate that the success of the university teaching depends on the ability of faculty to work in a team, which is indicative of their corporate culture level. The introduction of the innovative educational technologies to the educational process creates conditions for the development of future univer- sity instructors’ willingness to interact effectively while working on the projects, the ability to adapt to new unfamiliar situations, the ability to make decisions and be ready to face the responsibility, the ability to analyze peers’ works and be  able  of  self-criticism.  The  ability  to  introduce  innovative  methods  and  techniques  into  the  educational  process  re- quires knowledge of the main principles of teamwork. An important aspect is also university instructor’s ability to iden- tify students’ readiness for teamwork. The success of the team depends on various factors that include the establishment of  positive  interaction,  creation  of  necessary  conditions,  as  well  as  the  perception  of  the  individual  members  of  the group.  Generalization  of  domestic  and  international  experience  allows  us  to  describe  commonly  used  methods  of  in- creasing the effectiveness of teamwork. To study the level of readiness of the postgraduate students to work in a team we use a technique that allows us to define three main individual attitudes to the perception of teamwork: individualis- tic, collectivist, and pragmatic. The results of the experimental work prove that all postgraduate students fall under sev- eral  categories  such  as  ‘pure’  type,  ‘mixed’,  and  the  type  with  the  dominance  of  the  collectivist  orientation.  In  the course of the study we revealed a contradiction: although most postgraduate students who train to be future university instructors are characterized by the ‘collectivist’ culture, they have shown unwillingness to work in teams. 

Keywords: a university instructor’s corporate culture, corporate relations, teamwork, interpersonal communication, focus on teamwork.

Gryb S. Ye. The origin of testing technologies in the sphere of education: Ukrainian dimension and global context

Abstract. The work does a detailed analysis of the role and place of testing technologies in the history of the humanity. It grounds five stages of  the origin of testing technologies in the sphere of education. Many thematic researchers have associated the emergence of tests with the emergence of the first countries. R. Dubois explains the genesis of testing by the uprising of the testing system for officials  which was firstly presented in ancient China (2200’s BC). The Modern Russian scientist Kadnevskyy insists on the genesis of testing in the era of “homo sapiens”. The use of written tests and examinations in the East in ancient and medieval ages was considered to be a common thing. The modern testing dates back  to  the  Modern  times,  when  the  paradigm  of  modern  scientific  thinking  was  formed.  Within  this  period  the fundamental  idea  of  the  possibility  of  quantitative  measurement  in  psychology  was  being  formulated.  The  rapid progress of sciences and applied methods at the end of the 19th century brought the necessity to create awareness of the social  and  state  system  of  knowledge  control.  The  U.S.  has  become  a  pioneer  in  this  field.  The  development  of  test methods in our domestic territory took place in four stages. The first stage –  the early 20th century – 1936 can be defined as the period of the  genesis of test methods in Ukraine. The second stage – 1936 – 1956 – period of political persecution  of  all  “bourgeois”  sciences,  including  pedology.  Test  research  was  claimed  as  banned.  The  third  stage  –  1956 – 1991 – period of partial revival of testing on the territory of the former USSR. The fourth stage began in 1991 and continues nowadays. The new test history began  in Ukraine in the 90s of the 20th century, when  the public and government  officials  began  to  talk  not  only  about  control,  but  about  science-based  management  over  the  education process, which dataware heavily depended on tests. The President’s of Ukraine V. Yushchenko’s Decree from July 4, 2005 played an important role in the  genesis of the testing technologies. It offered  moving of the system of entrance examinations  to  higher  educational  establishments  in  Ukraine  to  external  independent  knowledge  testing  during  the years of 2005-06. The Ukrainian center of Educational Quality Assessment was organized and the external independent knowledge  testing  became  an  entrance  exam  to  universities  in  Ukraine.  The  current  condition  of  testing  process  in Ukraine being a form of measuring the quality of education demonstrates the great interest of the society and the state itself.

Hrytskykh O. Semiotic systems as means of education

Abstract. The possibility of the creation of optimal pedagogic conditions for self-formation and self-development of a student’s personality is analyzed and presented. In the context the semiotic systems are considered as effective means of teaching and education. Comfortable psychological and pedagogical conditions facilitate the formation of positive emo- tional attitude towards knowledge, process of education and towards personality’s being in this process. All these posi- tive attitudes appear and consolidate on the base of concrete results. Positive emotions of a personality as a component of an internal spiritual perfection appear in the process of education mainly on the ground of understanding the content of the educational material. The feeling of understanding and awareness of a self in this state is realized with the help of different means. Thus, the aim of the article is to consider the use of the pedagogical semiotic systems in the education- al process in terms of  materialization of the content of the educational  material  for  its deeper understanding. The re- search  on  the  problem  has  been  held  according  to  the  following  directions:  1)  optimal  semiotic  systems  as  means  of productive quasi-independent students’ research activity; 2) semiotic systems as means of the formation of the spiritual culture of the subjects in the teaching and educational process. The development of the semiotic means of education we realize according to the following principles: 1) the principle of the general sense connection between different forms of the semiotic means; 2) the principle of the dominant sense connection; 3) the principle of the integrity of the system of the  semiotic  means; 4) the principle of  minimization of language constructions  without loss of the educational infor- mation scope  and its meaning; 5) the principle of compliance and complementarity in relations among different semiot- ic means. We consider further research of the presented educational problem in theoretical grounding of the necessity in technological development of the pedagogical system as one of the important variant of means of materialization of the educational material content.

Deinychenko V. G. Components of the Design of Schoolchildren Teaching Activities

Abstract:  This  scientific  paper  delves  into  different  conceptual  standpoints  of  scientists  on  the  definition  of  the  “de- sign” concept from the aspect of the following approaches, in particular technological approach (it deals with the selec- tion of the definite mode of activities; it is the sequence of activities from problem statement to decision making), re- sourcing approach (it deals with the procedure of decision making on the development of a plan for reprocessing the re- sources into the tool for the satisfaction of demands; the sphere of self-actualization of a personality designed for the development of his/her skills), axiological approach (it deals with intellectual activities performed to review the value of task-oriented future work), heuristic (it is the creative approach that envisages the use of fundamental principles and re- lations; creative activities), acmeological (it is the resource for top intellectual and creative self-development of the sub- ject of activities), cybernetic (it deals with the development and creation of control systems designed to perform specific functions)  synergetic  (it  is  the  self-organization  process  of  activities  subjected  to  the  impact  of  external  factors),  and competency-based approach (these are activities targeted at the design competence formation). The analysis of scientific literature showed that the “design” concept has a complicated and multifaceted character for which a universal defini- tion  cannot  be  given.  The  main  features  of  the  design  are  as  follows:  conceptual  (embracing  by  design  activities  all spheres of social life), goal-seeking (comprehension of the problem that should be solved to reach the goal), personality (selecting and making a decision on the mode of goal realization), and procedural (model construction as an idealized object of real situation). The components of the design have been characterized as the battery of such constituents as forecasting, modeling, planning and designing. This paper analyzes different approaches of scientists to the definition of logical structure of the design process. This analysis allows us to single out such components as properly designing (the invariant  of  intelligence  operations)  and  project  realization  (transformation-related  activities  in  material  sphere).  The functions of the design performed in the comprehensive school teaching process environment (in particular training, de- velopmental, educational, incentive, and managerial) have been revealed; specific didactic design functions (superviso- ry and self-development functions) to determine design opportunities in schoolchildren activities have been marked out and characterized. 

Keywords: design, forecasting, modeling, planning, designing, design structure and functions, design paradigm.

Kilyova H.O. National educational space of Ukraine, prospects of reformation and development

Abstract. The idea that modern time requires creation of a new national educational environment is accentuated in the article since the modernization of the country, fundamental and strategic changes in society start with systematic reform of educational sector. Reforms in education should have a systematically focused state policy: the state and the society, more than ever, need new economic, scientific ideas and promising projects that can only be obtained by increasing of educational and scientific potential, which will be adequate to global scientific and technological development, of peo- ple. First of all, author emphasizes on the problems of preschool education, such as new approaches to organization pre- school teaching, change of standards of preschool education, rebuilding of old and construction of new kindergartens. There are some achievements in the area of secondary education: created a normative and legal and scientific and meth- odological support of a phased transition of secondary school to the new structure and content of education. 12-point system  of  evaluation  and  external  independent  testing  are  introduced.  The  process  of  computerization  of  secondary schools is still continued. Among the priority tasks of the reform of vocational education the author regards increasing intellectualization of professional education and the prestige of the working professions, practical orientation of profes- sional  training.  Higher  education  is  almost  no  connection  with  the  production.  Practically  there  is  no  state  order  for training specialists with higher education, lacking of specialists of engineering and technology professions. Formation of a new model of national education involves traditional principles of construction (fundamentality, systematic, com- prehensiveness, humanitarian and democratic orientation) and some new principles that meet the requirements of mod- ern market society (economic feasibility, adaptation of graduate to socio-economic changes in society, motivation for a lifelong learning).

Martynchuk E. The influence of philosophic knowledge on the development of the problem of educational inte- gration of the children with special needs

Abstract: The article deals with the problem of the revaluation by the domestic correctional pedagogy its own ideologi- cal  and  methodological  orientation  due  to  increasing  trends  of  Ukraine’s  entry  in  the  ideologically  multidimensional world of developed countries and with the development of inclusive form of education in the secondary schools of the general  type. Integration as  the objective side of the development of the educational process in Ukraine  specifies the search and accentuation of the methodological basis of this sophisticated and complex phenomenon. Thus within this article the attempt was made to determine the influence of philosophic knowledge on the development of the problem of the integration of the children with special educational needs to the secondary schools according to place of residence. The article emphasize on the different methodological and scientific and theoretical theories that underline approaches of the scientists of the post-Soviet period and foreign scientists while studying the phenomenon of educational integra- tion and the ways of its implementation in the general education sphere. In particular, the research on the theory and practice of integrated and inclusive education that is carried out in the former Soviet Union is based on the scientific concepts developed by the prominent Soviet scientists in the sphere of defectology and psychology. The methodological basis for them was always dialectical materialist Marxist philosophy that explains of human life based on the concept of the social and practical and proactive human’s nature. Along with this the value of scientific heritage of L.Vigotskiy on the development of integration process in the world and development of the methodological basis of social and educa- tional integration of the children with special needs was emphasized. The main part of the article is devoted to the influ- ence of modern philosophical ideas of existentialism, pragmatism, postmodernism, phenomenology, personalism, philo- sophical anthropology on the development of the integration of the children with special needs into the general educa- tional space. The most significant ideas of mentioned above philosophic trends that give opportunities for the studying of the different aspects of the problem of education, upbringing and development of the children with peculiarities of psychic and physical development within the conditions of the inclusive education are specified.    

Keywords:  educational  integration,  children  with  special  needs  (children  with  psychic  and  physical  disorders), modern philosophic trends.

Moskalenko O.M. Educational processes in Poltava region in late 19th – early 20th centuries as a precondition for the development of pedagogical local history

Abstract: One of important problems we are facing today is the study and creative application of historical experience inherited by us from the outstanding Ukrainian educators and illuminators of the late 19th – early 20th century. The ris- ing of the problems connected with pedagogical local history caused by modern trends that have appeared recently in the field of training of highly qualified teachers for secondary schools, technical colleges, and higher educational estab- lishments. Any advance in the direction of modernization of the teaching process as well as improving of its structure, contents, and methodical support would be  impossible without taking into account the experience connected with this issue that was  gained by previous generations. The main objective of the article is to create a complex description of pedagogical local history of Poltava region of the  second half of the 19th century – early 20th century. This objective could be achieved by carrying analysis of educational processes in the time context on the territory of Ukraine in gen- eral and on the territory of Poltava region in particular. The time frame the author is focused on is caused by objective processes that have taken place in the social life of Ukrainian people and those inhabited the Poltava region in particular at the turn of the 20th century. The lower time border of the research is determined by processes of revival of Ukrainian national-cultural movement, and national awareness. These processes have become obvious since the middle of 1890s. The upper time border is early 1920s  when qualitative new period in historical development of Ukrainian people has started. In the article an attempt to analyze the results obtained  during research of the development of education, science, and culture in the Poltava region from the middle of the 19th century till early 20th century. An author tries to deal with questions of the state of education, teachers’ training, and development of educational establishments, specialists training, state of then industry, culture, and religion. The article is dedicated to the problem of development of the peda- gogical local history in Poltava region in late 19th – early 20th centuries. Different educational processes that have taken place that time were examined.

Pidlubna O.M. Peculiarities of organization of professional training in flight schools of the USA

Abstract: The contemporary trends of U.S. aviation education are analyzed in this article. Particularly attention is fo- cused  on  highlighting  the  American  peculiarities  of  individual  learning,  progressive  experience  of  flight  schools  and application of independent examinations for verification and control of future pilot training. The basic stages of profes- sional  training  were  certain  for  getting  private  pilot  license  of  civil  aviation,  the  basic  requirements  and  methods  of training are exposed and analysed to examinations. The features of the pilot training organization are analysed, the prin- ciples of flight instructor teaching are considered. A role and place of a pilot-instructor in professional training is stud- ied, and process of preparation to theoretical and practical examinations is described. The article highlights a license, which can be obtained after training, studying can take place both independently and in flight schools. The flight studies of students and theoretical and practical training, which does not require the obligatory certificated schools, educational centers, are analysed, FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) estimates professional training of a student only during examination (check ride), which includes a verbal exam and flight testing. An important aspect for the certification of the  proper  estimation  of  pilots  is  to  develop  the  standards  testing  of  practical  skills.  Practical  tests,  which  determine readiness of students, using modern computer technology and which are carried out inspectors on safety of civil avia- tion (ASI – Aviation Safety Inspectors) and appointed pilot-examiners, are considered in the article (DPE – Designated Pilot Examiner). Professional training of pilots is very important, especially in the USA, where aviation system is very intensive. The article presents the features of training and flexibility training pilots in the United States,  making it pos- sible to combine the practical training and theoretical nature, to choose their own method and time of preparation. These study features of pilot training organizations in the United States will provide a positive experience of training future pi- lots that can be adapted and used for flying pilot training in Ukraine.

J. Roskopina The evolution of legal education in the United States: Past and Present

Abstract: The article describes the main stages of the development of American legal education, legal education model are highlighted in force in different periods; peculiarities of legal education in the United States, the characteristic of the modern training of lawyers in the United States on the basis of the curriculum of law schools at Harvard, Yale, New York, Michigan universities. It was revealed that the system of legal education United States was formed under the in- fluence of cultural, historical, political, economic and social changes taking place in American society. The signing of the “Declaration of Independence” in 1776, creating a single rule of law, the industrialization of the United States dur- ing the second half of the XIX century., Rapid progress of science, the prestige of the university, the need for industry and government managers, the growth of democratic movements in the United States in the XX century., Fighting Pov- erty and legal illiteracy – all these factors shaped the development of legal education in the United States. The basis of the USA European approach has been taken in the organization of education, has created its own model of higher law school, which has kept the features of historical continuity, and on the other  – had a pronounced national character of the state. It was found that the English educational tradition has had a greater impact on American law school, because of the close historical ties of both countries and their development within the framework of a unified system of common law. Thus, American universities have adapted to their conditions of Britain’s “classic program” of disciplines and the name “college” on the English model. Thus, creative borrowing of European traditions of university education, their ad- aptation to the socio-economic realities of the country have created the phenomenon of the American Law School, was formed parallel to and under the influence of political ideas that have infiltrated from Europe. In the USA legal educa- tion is also reflected and features of American society, its socio-cultural dominant: the autonomy of the individual «pri- vacy»,  independence,  democracy,  active  citizenship,  self-worth  individual.  During  the  research  it  was  found  that  the change in legal education at the turn of the century affected not only the organization but also the forms and methods of training and the requirements for admission to the university.

Rusina L. V. Interaction of traditional teaching methods, innovative educational technologies and information and communication technolo es in the educational process of Pedagogical University

Abstract: The problem of implementation of innovative teaching and information and communication technologies in the educational process of secondary and higher educational schools is examined. The author analyzes the influence of innovative educational processes on the contents, methods and forms of training future teachers of mathematics. In par- ticular, a comparative analysis of the methods of traditional pedagogy, collaborated educational work, project methods, educational information and communication technologies has been carried out and the conclusion of the possibility of a harmonious combination of these approaches in the educational process for secondary and higher vocational school was made. The ways to improve the educational process in pedagogical institutions through the development of an integrat- ed system of special optional courses have been suggested. The integrating core of such methodological system should become a theoretical course “Interaction of Innovative Teaching and Information Technology in  Modern Education”, which can be taught by traditional academic methods and forms: lectures, seminars, research reports, and articles.  It is provided that, after studying this course, the student has the opportunity to choose one of the special follow up courses of practical direction. Students who have chosen the same direction can be combined in creative group. The main method of learning at this stage is to use the method of projects with an obligatory open defense of the results. The article notes that, in order to ensure the harmonious combination of innovative teaching and information and communication technologies it is necessary to create and implement a methodological system of management of students’ training and cognitive activity in the process of using of Internet educational resources. One of the effective elements of such a sys- tem can be web- quest technology. Web-quest is a  web-based project in which almost all training information can be found on the Internet. In the base of a web-quest, there is an individual or a group work of students to solve the problem through the use of Internet resources, prepared in advance by the teacher. The structure of the web-quest provides the rational time management required for its completion. Thanks to a focused information search, active learning and cog- nitive activities are directed towards the processing of information in accordance  with the tasks, but  not on pointless wandering the spaces of the Internet.

Sachava K. D. Formation of the intellectual labour culture of the preteen youngsters

Abstract: The article gives a brief analysis of the scientific literature on problems of the intellectual labour culture and considers different scientific approaches to definition of the said concept. Basing on the analysis of the scientific litera- ture we define a notion of an “intellectual labour culture” that reflects efficiency of the cognitive activity performed by pupils, their readiness for its conscious, rational organization.  The article introduces a complex of the methodological and educational arrangements focused on formation of basics of the intellectual labour culture of the preteen youngsters in modern school environment. We emphasize a necessity of formation of the preteen pupils’ intellectual labour culture basics to tackle such objectives of the educational process: 1) to enrich the pupils’ minds with knowledge on possible information sources and methods of their application; 2) for pupils to attain common learning skills; 3) for pupils to at- tain skills of rational (scientific) organization of the intellectual labour. We underline that the intellectual labour culture involves formation of such emotional qualities of preteens as inquisitiveness, skills for negative emotions management, alongside with formation of communicative skills, such as tolerance, open-mindedness, sincerity, skills to listen and un- derstand, to always take into account peculiarities of conversation partners. The article considers implementation of the intellectual labour basics in the educational process at a general education school. The article author proposes the use of various methods and practices (discussions, explanations, persuasion) focused on students’ understanding of influence of the intellectual labour on human organism, necessity of learning and perception of the intellectual knowledge culture. The article describes activities held during lessons, extracurricular time (homeroom), during study period at school li- brary, directed to analysis and rational application of different information sources: skills to work with educational, ref- erence, research literature, technical support for study, essential skills for internet use. We also provided trainings per- formed by the author with the preteen youngsters in order to compose an efficient weekly academic schedule.

Serduk Z.A. The analysis of the math textbooks structure on for some of the Slavic states

Abstract. Effective organization of educational process is impossible without modern correspondent means of educa- tion  among  which  a  textbook  takes  an  important  place.  The  structure  of  modern  textbooks  on  mathematics  for  the  5 form of three Slavonic countries: Ukraine, Belarus and Russia, which have common traditions in education system is analyzed in the article. The article suggests the analysis of 6 textbooks – 3 Ukrainian, 1 – Byelorussian and 2 Russian ones. All the textbooks are recommended by the Ministries of Education in their countries for teaching mathematics in the 5th form of secondary school. Structures, composition of their chapters are also analyzed. The structure of tasks sys- tem is briefly analyzed and some peculiarities are revealed. It is stated that all the textbooks are corresponded to educa- tion standards and programs on mathematics in their countries. The structure of all the textbooks is different and the ap- proaches to giving the theoretical material and construction of tasks system are also different. While constructing educa- tional material the authors of textbooks use different methods. Specific of the suggested tasks is also determined by the demands of final and entrance examinations, that’s why the peculiarity of Ukrainian textbooks is the usage of different kinds of tests. The authors of most being analyzed textbooks suggest supplementary material for broadening outlook of pupils and their general development: some historical facts of mathematics milestones and development, facts from fa- mous  mathematicians’  life  of  different  epochs,  interesting  mathematical  facts,  puzzles,  riddles,  brain-twisters,  games etc. It should be noted that all the textbooks contain tasks with nonstandard solution, logical tasks, complicated tasks, which promote gifted pupils’ intellectual development. Each of the analyzed textbooks has its peculiarities, differences and authors’ style. A textbook on mathematics comparative characteristics is useful for finding out both strong positive aspects and drawbacks. Such analysis allows teaches of pedagogical higher educational establishments to take into con- sideration experience and progress of textbooks authors while training future teachers on mathematics and to raise the effectiveness of teaching mathematics at school – for working teachers.

Khrabrova V. Problem of formation of image world picture of secondary school students in the pedagogical science

Abstract: The article presents an overview of pedagogical literature on the issue of formation of image world picture of secondary school students in the pedagogical science from the end of XVII to the beginning of the XXI  c. The work features innovative pedagogical approaches of international scholars in the  sphere of the content of education, image perception, forming students’ own outlook on life. We considered the approach of Y.A. Comenius to the content of ed- ucation as far as he grounded his didactic ideas on the image perception; G. Skovoroda and his principle of “affinity” in understanding  and  interpreting  Biblical  and  antique  images  as  symbolical  ones.  We  analyzed  the  experience  of  A. Kniazkov in composing a school manual «Pictures of Russian History» (1902 г.). The best artists of Moscow and Saint- Petersburg were invited to create illustrations for this manual: S. Ivanov, Vasnetsov brothers, B. Kustodiev, A. Benua, D. Kardovsky, E. Lansere, M. Dobuzhinsky, V. Serov, etc. The structure and layout of material of the manual contrib- uted in forming gymnasium students’ independent attitude to the event under study. In the article we advocate the view- point of K. Ushinsky on forming the holistic world picture of students. We defined the teacher’s vision of world picture as a mental model of the world that is preserved in the memory of people, its consciousness and culture as a systematic knowledge of the world’s arrangement and the place of a person in it. We analyzed the work of I. Goncharov who dis- tinguished  between  esthetic  and  image  perception.  Special  attention  was  given  to  the  ideas  of  Ukrainian  pedagogues O. Savchenko,  I. Ziazun,  R. Posinkevich,  O. Rudnitskaya,  S. Cherepanova,  suggesting  to  reinforce  the  culturological component if education of students. The works of L. Balashov, T. Chelnokova were incorporated due to the use of syn- ergetic approach to education on the basis of teaching philosophy and history. L. Balashov suggested teaching philoso- phy with the use of works art and culture, images of fictional literary works, parables, created by both philosophers and writers.  Special attention  was paid to the philosophical lyrics of Russian poets. T. Chelnokova elaborated an elective course of «History in images and feelings» for the 5-6 classes.

Brynza I.V. A specific of displays of existential resources of a be single personality is in youth age

Abstract. the results of empiric research, sent to the study of specific in the display of existential resources at persons which experience loneliness in youth age are presented in the article. Found out negative connections between the in- dexes of the phenomena, which are studied. The got correlations are explained by that experiencing of loneliness comes in moments, when resources are not, or they are not involved in an order to accept changes which came in life of per- sonality. In research the phenomenon of loneliness is examined from position of existential-humanism approach. In obe- dience to an existential model, all people are single from start to finish. Insulativity, incompatibility, uncommunicative- ness,  next  to  experiencing  of  extremity  of  own  existence  (deaths)  are  извечные  descriptions  of  human  life,  from  the point of view of existentialists. There is experiencing of loneliness in youth age, it is related to activity of personality in opposing with other people, asserting right on own unique and unique existence, on its. Young people experience lone- liness,  gaining  experience  parting  with  old  values,  experience  of  loss  of  near  mutual  relations,  experience  of  loss  of some part itself. Necessity of this experiencing, sharpens sense of weakness and helplessness. Quite often it results in doubts in own meaningfulness, losses of trust to the world and to itself, to alienation and  isolation. Therefore, realiza- tion and capture the loneliness in youth age, can depend not so much from the situation of loneliness, how many from the degree of realization and use of the existential resources. Richly in content existential resources open up in subjec- tive  position  personalities  in  relation  to  existential  данностей,  among  which  key  is,  :  freedom,  sense,  mercy,  ac- ceptance, faith of and other During the collision of man with critical situations or crisis phenomena exactly these posi- tions  which  are the constituents of existential resources provide possibility of their overcoming. It is set by  means of high-quality analysis, that for the group of “be” single young people 16-17 years, by resources, which help to retain a psychical  equilibrium,  manage  with  experiencing  of  mistrust  to  окружающим,  to  not  satisfaction  by  itself,  position, are:  “mercy”,  “freedom”, “acceptance”.  At  the  same  time,  absence  of  resources  of  “sense”  and “faith”  induces  young people to inclination all to complicate, fix attention of consciousness on possible failures and hoodoos, to show a hy- perdisturbance in relation to the future which in turn results in experiencing of psychological tension, sense of weakness and  helplessness.  For  the  group  of  young  people,  which  does  not  experience  loneliness,  leading  resources  it  is  been: “sense”,” freedom”, “faith” and “acceptance”. These resources give possibility of personality to support force of the “Я”, possibility to feel a confidence in itself, be active, optimistic to the future, successfully to co-operate  with окружаю- щими, it is adequate to manage the conduct.  

Keywords:    existential  resources  of  personality,  resource  of  freedom,  resource  of  sense,  resource  of  acceptance, resource of faith, resource of mercy, state of loneliness.

Vasilenko I.A. Psychological peculiarities of emotionality and sociability of children in primary school age

Abstract.  This  research  paper  is  aimed  at  study  of  emotionality  characteristics  and  sociability  formal- dynamic parameters of children from seven to ten years old. The given results indicate a relative stability of grade  schoolers’  emotionality.  It  was  determined  that  at  primary  school  age  a  stable  tendency  to  dominate over emotions of certain modality appears. This modality can be represented  by the type of emotionality (a certain combination of emotional modalities). The results of correlation analysis show regular links between qualitative  indices  of  emotionality  and  formal-dynamic  parameters  of  sociability.  It  was  proved  that  under stability of emotionality even in case when emotional types change specificity of sociability changes corre- spondingly. The manner of these links was steady during the whole period of our empirical study and is iden- tical to the results of other investigations devoted to the problem of relationships between emotionality and sociability among adults. It gives an opportunity to assume that the manner of links between the mentioned phenomena  is  steady.  Persistent  types  of  emotionality  among  children  of  primary  school  age  are  distin- guished in the result of qualitative analysis. It is proved that children with a certain type of emotionality are characterized by a certain structure of sociability indices. Consequently, it can be concluded that emotionali- ty determines individual specificity of sociability at primary school age through structuring of the system of its indices. Psychological portraits of children with different types of emotionality and corresponding speci- ficity of sociability are studied with the help of sociability profiles analysis and observation of children’s be- havior. There is no doubt that a certain type of emotionality match a certain specificity of sociability. This study  represents  the  existence  of  certain  interrelationships  between  qualitative  parameters  of  emotionality and formal-dynamic indices of sociability (emotional stability change leads to sociable specificity change). Results of our prolonged research, comparison of data before and after investigation show the absence of sta- tistical significance between indices if emotionality and sociability. It indicates not only a steady manner of links between emotionality and sociability but it also confirms that an emotional type of a child is relatively stable.

Мalyk S.L. The influence of physiological characteristics of children with cerebral palsy in the state of their mental capacity

Abstract. The provision of students’ high capacity while maintaining their mental  and physical health throughout the study period in the modern school is the primary challenge. The aim of the work was to study the psychophysiological characteristics of junior school age children with infantile cerebral paralysis and their mental capacity. Disorders of the musculoskeletal system and sensory deprivation have an significant impact on the formation of psychological character- istics of children with infantile cerebral paralysis. The frequency and the degree of intellectual disorders of these chil- dren depend on the form of the disease. In conjunction with rapid fatigue, psychophysiological characteristics of chil- dren with infantile cerebral paralysis hinder the development of learning activities and development. In the state of fa- tigue the school children may have impulsive movements: confusion, fussiness. Study skills are being formed slowly. The children with this pathology are different from their peers. They have rapid fatigue and higher anxiety. Only with qualified medical and psychological  care and complex rehabilitation measures the defects in the development of chil- dren with disabilities are weakened. An important aspect in the arrangement of learning activity of the following stu- dents is the indicators of mental capacity, as they reflect not only the functional state of mind, but also the condition of the body as a whole. Timely complex rehabilitation of mental capacity and age appropriately matched individual gradu- ate workload will be coaching and medical component in complex medical and remedial measures and facilitate adapta- tion to school the children with the nervous system diseases and will lead to an approximation of their mental capacity to normative values. Regulations of sick children capacity can create the principles of enhancing their health and insur- ance of more successful learning.

Sitkar V. Childhood subculture in the context of modern mass culture and interact with media

Annotation. The article deals with the modern media-saturated society. Having taken a harmonious place in the child’s subculture, children’s media have to be the stage of socialization of a little reader and a guide in the world of adults’ values. Children’s world coexists in the same area with the adults’ world, so we shouldn’t forget that every bullet has its billet. Endurance of childhood directly depends on the level of material and spiritual culture of society. This means that a person without society is a biological being, a kind of “Mowgli”, which is peculiar to animal habits. Every  child en- riches the overall space of children’s subculture with personal achievements, guidelines, principles and traditions that he/she brings from his/her family. We should make a note that the culture of childhood has two layers. One layer is cul- tural  forms  that are created by adults  for children. The other one is  forms of  her/his own activities. The creativity of adult allows a child to join to the achievement of cultural history, and through the processes of “rozpredmechuvannya” she/he becomes a cultural person. Children are not just a social group, but a primary audience of periodical issue, some media consumers, that’s why the informational peculiarities of children’s behavior as media consumers, ultimately de- termine the basic strategy principles of edition and its model. The child’s edition must satisfy moral and ethical stand- ards, cause under the influence of reading the relationship of a child to his/her actions is formed and the behavior evalu- ation of others is implemented. Let us not forget that a child is not just a small adult who knows less or can less, but a being that has qualitatively different psyche than an adult. With the accumulation of knowledge and skills, the prerequi- sites of spiritual growth of the individual are created.
