The Use of Kolb’s Model in Science Teaching Methodology
Get PDFThe relevance of this paper refers to the importance of Kolb’s model in developing future teachers’ professional competences and ability to integrate the theoretical and practical segment of their education. The aim of this paper is to examine what theoretical knowledge and practical experience is present in the Science Teaching Methodology regarding the initial teacher training in Croatia, in accordance with the Kolb’s model. The research was based on quantitative (descriptive analysis and factor analysis) and qualitative research methodology, which included the analysis of relevant literature and a survey conducted among the students of teacher education studies at the universities of Pula, Rijeka, Zadar and Split (Croatia). The results have shown that, in the given context, the Science Teaching Methodology is dominated by the acquisition of theoretical knowledge, lacking concrete experience activities and reflections on the real-life experience. Furthermore, innovations are only rarely introduced into teaching, which means that Kolb’s experiential learning model is not implemented in practice. The paper materials may be useful in the initial teacher training for acquiring the theoretical and practical knowledge about the use of Kolb’s model in the Science Teaching Methodology, and for integrating this model into the initial teacher training curriculum
Analysis of employees’ social and psychological component indicators in the structure of higher education institution image
Get PDFThe article presents the analysis of social and psychological component indicators of academic employees in the structure of higher education institution (university) image. As a part of comprehensive study we determined the internal structure of a higher education institution image according the results of factor and correlation analysis which includes five factors: professional, social-psychological, motivational, emotional-volitional and individual-psychological.

Some of the factors have been stydied previously and we could find scientific publications on these issues. At the same time the results of the social and psychological component research have not been published yet but have a significant scientific interest since they characterize a sample of 285 representatives of the rectorate, dean's offices, heads of departments and academic staff of the university. We found out that each category of respondents has its own peculiarities regarding the level of satisfaction with quality of life, subjective satisfaction or not satisfaction with social or personal recognition, material and social security, level of personal authority. We were able to find the dominant type of university employees’ attitude towards people in interaction: authoritarianism, egoism, aggression, suspicion, subordination, dependence, friendliness and altruism. The results of this study can be used for individual diagnosis and appropriate correction of each category of the respondents to have a positive impact on the image of the university

The experiment on the identification of Internet addiction involved 540 parents. The sample on the study of digital socialization included 316 primary school students aged 7 to 9. On the one hand, the results showed the preservation and demonstration of the content and methods of traditional socialization among younger students of all levels of Internet involvement in terms of digital socialization. This fact indicates the integration and combination of digital and traditional socialization. On the other hand, the increase in the levels of Internet involvement contributes to the replacement and transition from traditional socialization to a digital one

Festival and Competition Movement as A Form of Development of Teacher’s and Student’s Dialogical Thinking
Get PDFThe relevance of the problem examined in the study is determined by the insufficient knowledge from the point of modern pedagogics of art about the widely spread and publicly recognized festival and competition movement which is aimed at identifying gifted children and promoting the aesthetic development of all children participating in festivals and competitions in various types of art. Following the priorities of modern education aimed at the formation of students’ independent thinking, creativity, tolerance, initiative, and communicability, the authors view the festival and competition movement as a form of development of dialogical thinking in teachers and students able to understand each other in the process of communicating on the topics of art, creativity, and social phenomena. The basis of the study is formed by the results of four children’s drawing competitions held by the Federal State Research Institution of the Russian Academy of Education “Institute of Art Education” in 2019-2020 which involved 30 educational institutions and over 3,000 drawings, as well as teachers’ reports and video and photographic recordings of the educational process and programs combining all types of participants’ artistic activity (musical, theatrical, literary, fine art, decorative, constructive, design) at the final stages of festivals and competitions. The dialogue of arts practiced in the process of children’s and teachers’ participation in the festival and competition movement is disclosed in the present article as a method of dialogical thinking development manifesting in creative activity that has a motive, a goal, a system of actions and operations, a result and control. The goal of the study is to identify the aesthetic and personal priorities of children and adolescents in various types of art that allow determining the optimal system of motives, goals, actions, and operation in the course of the dialogue between a teacher and a student on the topics of art, creativity, and social and cultural events. It is concluded that the festival and competition movement presents an effective form of development of teacher’s and student’s dialogical thinking under certain conditions, namely the reliance on the age-specific and individual characteristics of a child’s development, the formation of “I am the author” position in a child, and a teacher’s understanding of a student’s aesthetic and personal priorities
The Interrelationship between Coping Strategies and Socio-Psychological Competency of University Students’ Personality
Get PDFIn contemporary society characterized by socio-economic and political instability, the problem of studying the factors and mechanisms that contribute to the constructive resolution of life difficulties and counteracting their negative consequences is very important. This paper contains the results of an empirical study of the characteristics and relationships of students’ coping behavior with different levels of their socio-psychological competency. The research methods comprised the following: theoretical analysis, empirical research (testing), qualitative analysis of the obtained data, mathematical and statistical data processing (SPSS Statistics, Excel). The characteristics of indicators of socio-psychological competency were determined with the use of the technique for assessing socio-communicative competency, as well as a questionnaire that reveals the possibility of using socio-psychological skills by a person in difficult life situations. To study coping behavior, the following were used: “The ways of coping questionnaire” and “The youth coping scale”. The validity and reliability of the research results was ensured by the initial methodological positions, the use of tested tools, representativeness of the research sample, as well as mathematical processing of data with the help of software package for statistical analysis. The conclusions have been drawn that the basis of constructive mechanisms to overcome difficult life situations is a high level of formation of professional skills and abilities, introversion, motivation to achieve success, high intellectual development, moral standards, a high level of development of communication skills. It is these mechanisms that make it possible to resolve problem situations and tasks at work in a productive way. Their absence or a low level of development contributes to the dominance of situational methods of overcoming difficult life situations that impede professional formation and personal development
