THE STUDY OF THE PROBLEM OF CONTINUITY IN EDUCATIONAL COMPLEXES

Restructuring of educational institutions and creating educational complexes aimed at improving the quality of general education are discussed in the article. However, the integration of educational organizations in a complex actualizes the problem of continuity between the levels of general education and horizontal correlations of educational system. To increase the level of continuity, we should first analyze and identify the problems of integration. The solution to this problem is based on the methodology of development of educational systems and theories of organizational development. Based on this methodology, the secondary complex is regarded as an innovative educational organization engaged in the development, dissemination and implementation of innovations. The study identifies the subjects of the analysis and the algorithm of actions. The developed criteria of quality of activity of educational systems in the implementation of the succession and the methods of its evaluation are presented.

DIDACTIC ASPECTS OF CONTINUITY OF NATURAL SCIENCE EDUCATION FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

The article deals with didactic aspects of continuity of natural science education for high school students. The continuity embraces the spacial and temporal connections of general education stages, content and structural-logical links of natural science high school education, vertical and horizontal continuity. The natural sciences have nature as a common study object, and are integrated through common natural sciences methods of obtaining knowledge, and these factors orient teachers to look for common approaches of teaching natural sciences subjects, including close interdisciplinary links between them. The curricular practices of interaction among teachers within the subject area «Natural Sciences Subjects» in general school is revealed. These practices prove that personal and meta-disciplinary educational results could be successfully achieved only by combined efforts of natural science teachers teaching to chemistry, physics, biology within the subject area «Natural Sciences Subjects».

THE IMPLEMENTATION OF INTEGRATED EDUCATION FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS OF DIFFERENT NOSOLOGICAL GROUPS

The article deals with the problem of integrated education for high school students of different nosological groups (on the example of physical training). On the basis of the analysis of literature sources and practical training for students with disabilities the following conclusions were made: а) physical training in inclusive education of senior students should include encouragement and motivation, correction of motor disorders, exercising of physical qualities; b) the integrated education for senior high school students of various nosological groups faces the methodological, psychological, pedagogical, and social challenges. The challenges are caused by the necessity to use special approach for each nosological group of students, special methods of teaching, connected with particular disabilities as well as with unpreparedness for this type of education both students and teachers. To solve these problems the integrated training of teenagers based on the interdisciplinary nature of education .use the training is used. In the article methods and results of empirical study of strengths and weaknesses of integrated research for senior students of various nosological groups such as "brain storming", SWOT-analysis; expert assessment are presented. The educators in the area of physical training (160 instructors) participated in the research, and as a result the matrix of the strengths and weaknesses, threats and opportunities of integrated teaching in the context of inclusive education, was formed. On the basis of the received data, the author puts forward the suggestions for improving the integrated education of physical training. It should be started from the educator's training based on the humanistic principles in teaching students with disabilities as well as psycho-pedagogical support for the formation and development of personal qualities, to help students with disabilities successfully adapt in society.

TECHNOLOGY OF LIFELONG LINGUISTIC EDUCATION: TEACHING STUDENTS TO RECOGINIZE AND CORRECT ERRORS IN ENGLISH ACADEMIC WRITING

Lifelong language learning means learning foreign languages during person’s life both within an education system and outside it. The article focuses on the effect of interference and polysemy on academic English of students from some countries. Students’ native language (Finnish, Swedish, German, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian) is given a brief characteristic in comparison with English as a foreign language. The author considers the influence of students’ native language on their errors in academic writing. Teachers of academic English from the mentioned countries show that students face problems when dealing with the structure of the English sentence and its word order, with tense system and active and passive voices, with articles and prepositions usage. Examples of such errors are presented and some suggestions for their correction are given. Polysemy of the native and English languages presents a lot of difficulties for learners while choosing the proper word meaning. Students should learn to analyze the context meaning of words in their native language and to find its relevant equivalent in English. Teachers could explain such problem situations to students, use interlanguage contrasting exercises and train students to recode their ideas from their native language into English.

EDUCATION AND ENLIGHTENMENT AS THE TWO SIDES OF A SINGLE PROCESS (via the example of ecological culture formation)

The search for the single foundation and specificity for the two very important processes – education and enlightenment, based on formation for the different components of the general culture of a person (ecological, rhetoric, legal, natural sciences, humanitarian, etc.) is attempted in the article. In foreign literature the concepts «education» and «enlightenment» are treated as synonyms whereas in the Russian publications the above-mentioned concepts are used together as a rule in a phrase «ecological education and enlightenment», without underlining the specificity of each concept. The contribution of each of the processes under consideration into the goal achievement is obviously different and the forms of realization of the contribution would be different, too. The article prefaces the realization of the regional project for working out the Concept of ecological enlightenment in the interest of sustainable development in St. Petersburg.

SCHOOL MEDIATION SERVICE AS AN EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY: THE RESULTS OF THE APPROBATION

The activity of the school mediation service is considered for the first time as an educational technology. The elements of this educational technology are revealed from the positions of the system-activity approach. The education technology is understood by the authors in two aspects: as the implementation of the projected learning process and as real teacher-child interactions. The principles and conditions of technology implementation are formulated. The areas of work of the mediation service are specified. The novelty of the technology is the focus of the mediation process not only on the successful conflict resolution, but also on the training of mediation participants. The article suggests criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the mediation service. In accordance with these criteria, the results of the approbation of the proposed technology in the state educational institution School (Gymnasium) № 505 of St. Petersburg in 2016/17 and 2017/18 academic year are analyzed. Based on the results of the approbation the problems and challenges were identified. The approbation showed that the proposed technology require further theoretical and methodological development, including the problem of the mediation training for adolescent mediators and consideration of gender aspects during the mediation procedure.

MOBILE PHONE AS AN EDUCATIONAL INSTRUMENT

The information technologies development has reached the stage when nearly every school student owes a smartphone. Permanently upgraded functionality of modern smartphones, numerous applica-tions attract both teachers and learners by their possibilities for forming educational competencies. At the same time, one can see threats, evident but not enough studied yet, which calls for anxiety and concern. Possessing great potential for using in educational environment, the phone sometimes gives a reason for conflicts in class. The contradiction and lack of data for phone influence on learner achievements, psychological well-being and intra-personal relationship call for further studies. In the research, performed on a representative group made of 150 high school students and undergraduate university students, the problems of productive and problematic use of mobile phones were considered. To get the data of the use of mobile phones the survey method was applied. We also used the Russian adapted version of the questionnaire PUMP (Problematic use of mobile phone). One of the manifestation of the construct «problematic use of mobile phone» are the problems in different spheres of life activity including the problems connected with education. The result of investigation helps to reveal both positive and negative impact of mobile phones on educational process

STEREOTYPE VS ORIGINALITY IN COMMUNICATION AND LEARNING

The attempt is made to define the «spheres of influence» of stereotype and stereopization as a dominant tendency in the approach for «speech skills development» of school and university students. We also tried to find the ways to create conditions for manifestation of learners’ independence in productive speech activities. We oriented it not on the outside patterns but on the self-expression of a linguistic persona. We consider that sooner or later it will promote to develop value-based attitude to their speech and the language, which is shown in the first place in striving to make the speech less stereotypical, different from others, original. Stereotypic base (language as a system) serves as an instrument for expressing intellectual-emotional personality content («by default» − unique), − this combination may serve as the source of pedagogical objective to make speech cliché-free.

FROM 'OUT-OF-SCHOOL EDUCATION' TO 'SUPPLEMENTARY EDUCATION' IN RUSSIA: A COMPARATIVE HISTORICAL-LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE CONCEPTS (THE 18TH - 21ST CENTURIES)

The article examines the historical-semantic interrelations between the concepts of out-of-school education in Tsar Russia, out-of-school vospitanie (education+) in the Soviet Union, and supplementary education in post-1991 Russian. The study employs the semantic-pedagogical approach (Kolesnikova et al., 2016) and a complex of historical and linguistic methods to explore the usage of the terms supplementary education, supplementary adult education, continuing professional education, training, out-of-school education in historical contexts. The data was retrieved from Ngram Viewer, state documents, scholarly publications. The historical and semantic analysis of the concepts related to different forms of non-mainstream education showed that since the 18th century both the sector of primary comprehensive and professional school and various out-of-school forms of education have been actively developing in Russia. The first forms of out-of-school education were addressed to socially and economically unprivileged classes of people and aimed to form their basic literacy skills and general culture. Out-of-school education was developed as an alternative to school education, was run and funded by individuals and non-government organisations. During the Soviet period, out-of-school education of adults was transformed into night schools, schools by correspondence, schools at fabrics and plants that became part of the formal state education system. The concept of out-of-school education marked the beginning of out-of-school vospitanie (education+) of children and adolescents, which was aimed at the development of the Soviet identity. Out-of-school vospitanie (education+) employed a lot of forms of public pedagogy. In 1992, after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the term 'supplementary education' replaced 'out-of-school vospitanie (education+) of children and adolescents' and almost all the forms of adult education including 'continuing professional education'. By 2013, "supplementary education" became an umbrella term describing all forms of lifelong education excluding compulsory school and degree programs. The state recognised supplementary education as an essential component of the educational system. Nevertheless, the transition from the Soviet terminology to the post-1991 concept narrowed the field of learning that is considered education to a limited number of avenues. The concept of supplementary education introduced a utilitarian economic and standards-based approach to education.

FINAL STATE EXAMINATION OF PUPILS’ ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AND STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IN THE REPUBLIC OF KARELIA

In recent years, professors of the Institute of Mathematics and Information Technologies of Petro-zavodsk State University have noted the following tendency: many students are becoming increas-ingly unable to cope with the traditional courses in science and mathematics due to insufficient knowledge and skills in Mathematics at a school level even though the students might have high scores in the final exam in Mathematics. A research was carried out targeting PetrSU applicants re-siding in the Republic of Karelia from the point of view of exam scores, the academic performance of first and second-year students, the correlation between the school exam score and academic per-formance of the university students. The database of the research was formed by the exam scores in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science and the Russian Language in the Republic of Karelia within the period of 2014−2017, as well as data on the academic performance of PetrSU students during the first year of study in Mathematics. As a result of the research, we detected a weak link-age between an applicant’s exam score in Mathematics and a university student’s average score in Mathematics. One of the crucial reasons for this may be the following factor: the school exam scores do not reflect the actual level of knowledge of students in Mathematics whereas it is a requirement for effective performance at the university level. As a result, the university is forced to spend its re-sources to fill in the gaps in students’ basic school knowledge.

ASSESSMENT OF EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES AS A LEARNING STRATEGY

Change in evaluation methodology is defined by changes of social, cultural and educational situations. The significance of this problem solution is due to the need for practical application of new assessment requirements. Based on the analysis of fictional texts the main concepts have been elaborated and clarified: assessment, learning strategy, formative assessment, criteria assessment, meaningful evaluation. The concept «learning outcome assessment as an educational strategy» has been defined within this research as providing information to achieve academic goals, coordinating learning process and evaluation with the values, age and students’ idiosyncrasies. This data enables effective teacher control over learning processes, as well as student autonomy. Practicing teachers worked out conditions for the realization of learning outcomes as learning strategy, namely, implied choices and criteria frame in assessment, teacher’s trust, etc. Among the factors preventing this realization are parents’ fixation on the grade, ambiguous teachers’ requirements, labour intensity of changing the assessment system, the five-point system. Special attention is given to students’ self-assessment based on options in the process of assessment. Analysis of educational practice revealed teachers’ positive attitude to the idea of learning outcomes assessment as a learning strategy, as well as some problem areas in the realization of this project.

STUDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN IDEAL AND REAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE LEARNING PROCESS (BASED ON TEACHING MATHEMATICS)

The article highlights the importance of quality of learning outcomes in teaching Natural Sciences, more specifically, Mathematics. The material reveals the discrepancy between a high level of abstraction in Natural Sciences and Mathematics and insufficient level of abstract thinking of primary and secondary school students. Based on the analysis of literary resources as well as teaching practice, the author suggests an idea how to overcome the above-mentioned conflict through interconnection between ideal and real forms of knowledge in learning. Practical and sensual experiences underlie the development of abstract thinking which contributes to the improvement of visual, kinetic, and metaphoric thinking. The author puts forward the following scheme of idea realization: thing – action − word; and image − action – thing. Fraction addition was used as a valid illustration of effectiveness of the method.

The article examines the problems of implementing the principle of polyculturality in modern education, while studying the genesis of this concept in the following categories: «poly», «culture», «polyculturality» and «polyculturality in education». Comparative analysis of the similarly in the concepts of «polyculturality» and «multiculturalism» has been carried out as part of this research: the former concept is aimed at creating a unified society by representatives of different cultures (national and religious affiliations), the latter concept does not project situations in which all members of society must adhere to the principles of polyculturality, so that in such a society representatives of any culture, living in the same society, live in their «world». For both the concepts the common component is the category of tolerance. In general, the article is devoted to the analysis of the polycultural educational environment of the educational institution.

The problems of conceptualization and contextualization of methodological knowledge are described in the context of a multiplicity of scientific paradigms and current tendencies to increase the diversity and heterogeneity of methodological knowledge. The potential of the system-phenomenological methodology is assessed as a conceptual tool for research in the field of educational sciences. The system-forming principles and basic categories of a holistic approach are highlighted, the potential possibilities of applying this methodological approach to the social and educational situation of the 21st century are considered, the significance of the holistic approach is assessed in the context of the implementation of continuing education strategies. The phenomenon of integrity as applied to the analysis of pedagogical phenomena, processes and systems is presented from different points of view: as the essential unity of logical parts in scientific and pedagogical research; as an opportunity to build new forms of implementation of a holistic pedagogical process in the logic of self-generation; as a form of reconstruction of pedagogical traditions in the new conditions of the development of society, in particular, analyzes the specificity of the representation of a holistic approach as a tool for the implementation of innovative projects and a means of systematic promotion of the methodology of scientific and educational activities in the information environment.

RESEARCHER FUNCTIONAL LITERACY DEVELOPMENT AS AN ACUTE TASK OF LIFELONG LEARNING

Formation and development of theoretical concept of literacy both in foreign education and in Russian pedagogical discourse are discussed in the article. Special attention is paid to the content transformation of the literacy category in the new realities of the XXIst century, when the trends towards globalization are increasing, the requirements for professional qualifications and the level of functionality of specialists, especially in the research field, are changing dramatically. It actualizes the possibilities of adaptation and use of «human literate» universal model formation proposed by B. S. Gershunskiy in regard to a modern researcher. In our opinion, each stage of the chain «literacy − education − professionalism − culture − mentality» implicitly or explicitly contains a functional component being transformed under the influence of various socio-humanitarian practices, but invariably associated with the researcher`s development in the system of continuing education. Similar changes are fixed in the professional culture and professional mentality of a researcher. On the basis of the idea offered by E. V. Balatskiy who singled out changing science technologies (semantic, information, personnel, industrial, instrumental) we were able to identify and present the cluster of problems that the changes cause in scientific activities of a modern researcher, and also to correlate them with the relevant types of literacy/functional literacy requiring continuous improvement considering the new challenges in the global research area.

GRAMMAR-TEST METHOD IN PREPARING STUDENTS FOR THE ENTRANCE TEST IN FOREIGN LANGUAGES FOR NON-LINGUISTIC MASTER’S PROGRAMMES

The problem of a student language acquisition at the entrance examination in English for non-linguistic Master’s Programs proves to be a challenge for adult learners in lifelong learning, therefore the choice of the most effective method of individual English-language competence acquisition appears particularly urgent. The current study is aimed at considering the effectiveness of the grammar-test method used for development the Preparation Course in English for non-linguistic Master’s Programs; the course has been successfully implemented for two years (2017 and 2018) at Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University (the IKBFU). Being an adapted version of the classical grammar-translation method, the grammar-test method successfully alleviates the problem of preparing learners for enrollment in the non-linguistic Master’s Program by restoring and improving English-language skills. The assessment of grammar-test method was based on statistical processing of the entrance examination results shown by applicants who had taken the Preparation English Course curriculum in full, as well as on the questionnaire results offered to the Course participants. Being based on the principles of straight-line material studying (from the rule to its consolidation), instructional bilingualism, learning material system-related presentation, knowledge systematization, training tasks monolingualism and intensive training, the grammar-test method proved to be the best to meet the needs of the present educational context, characterized on the one hand by adult learners’ high motivation to be enrolled in the non-linguistic Master’s Program, and on the other hand a low level of their English-language competence, therefore the necessity of mastering vast amount of the language material within a short period of time is necessary.

EVALUATION METHODS OF TRAINING SYSTEM EFFECTIVENESS FOR PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION IN THE REGIONS OF THE FAR EASTERN FEDERAL DISTRICT

The article is devoted to the development of tools that could assess the effectiveness of training graduates of secondary vocational and higher education from the most objective positions. The object of the study is the far Eastern Federal district, which is positioned by the government, today, as a priority area of advanced development. The need for monitoring, analysis and evaluation of the effectiveness of training for this macroregion is due to its importance as a strategic territory of Russia. At the same time, there are a number of problems associated with the steady migration outflow of the population from the territories of the far Eastern Federal district and, as a consequence, the growing shortage of personnel for the economy of this macro-region. Therefore, the development of methods for analyzing the effectiveness of training in the territory of the subjects of the far Eastern Federal district is vital for making science-based decisions in the management of education. For example, in mobilizing the limited resources of the vocational education system of the far Eastern Federal district to train the most sought-after personnel. When developing such tools, the task arises of forming a list of indicators that adequately and comprehensively assess the effectiveness of training by the vocational education system, as well as criteria for their comparison with the thresholds. The following indicators were considered: the effectiveness of employment taking into account the level of employment and wages, social obligations to young people to provide education in their native region, orientation to the labor market for training, demanded by the economy of the regions of the far Eastern Federal district and migration flows of graduates. On the basis of these indicators, an integral indicator of efficiency is built, which allows comparing the education systems of the subjects of the far Eastern Federal district with each other, building private and General ratings. The use of the proposed methodology in the management of vocational education system will allow to identify problem areas in training, to take timely management measures to address them and, thereby, to improve the efficiency of training.
