This paper presents an analysis of issues of contemporary processes related to global higher education dynamics. The paper is based on the analysis of research results of well-known researchers of global higher education reality, as well as on the author’s own research results within the Erasmus program. It states that new aspects of the mission of a university as an institution were added to such aspects as research, teaching and service, in accordance with social requirements. It also reveals that the concept of the world-class research university of the XXI century of Prof. P. Altbach and the model of the entrepreneurial university of Prof. B. Clark, which work in the conditions of growing competition between higher education, represent a new world higher education reality in the early XXI century. The paper reveals that the global market of higher education services has been established as an instrument of higher education changes. In this context, the traditional providers of educational services and the “new providers” compete for or complement the supply. The paper shows that the traditional providers of educational services are public and private universities. It emphasizes that University has become only one of the actors in the new “knowledge business” nowadays and discusses that recently we have witnessed the emergence of new types of higher education providers. The paper considers the emergence of new providers of higher education as indicators of the direction of higher education dynamics in the immediate future. These “new providers” include corporate universities, virtual universities and online courses, a certification system of competence in computer technology, commercial IT and media companies, networks of professional associations, national or international research networks, international conglomerates and consortia, and publishers, who are designing and delivering course materials, sometimes in partnership with universities.

The paper presents the model of the formation of future energy engineers’ foreign language competence, which conditionally reproduces the process of step-by-step learning of a foreign language for professional purposes and the development of practical knowledge and skills of receptive and productive types of linguistic activity under specifically created conditions due to the use of a range of specially selected didactic and methodological toolkit of informational, audiovisual and visual type focusing on project learning technologies. Based on the results of the research, its main components were determined and analyzed, and their inverse relationship and interaction were substantiated too. It was established that the developed model belongs to the structural and functional group. It was found that the structure of the model is determined by a complex of interconnected and complementary elements, which are combined into four blocks: motivational-target (goal, task, social order), didactic-methodological (approaches and principles of learning), content-processual (stages of foreign language training, pedagogical conditions, methods, technologies, forms, means of education), evaluation-resultative (components, levels), formation of foreign language competence, result). The functionality of the model is characterized by a set of properties that reveal its ability to perform a number of functions, in particular: educational, organizational, technological, managerial, cognitive, developmental, communicative, competent, controlling. The model design of foreign language competence formation for the future energy engineers was carried out taking into account the specifics of the professional training of higher education graduates specializing in the field of knowledge 14 Electrical engineering and the specifics of their future professional activities. It has been determined that the implementation of the suggested structural and functional model into the educational process of students’ foreign language learning results in the formation of a foreign language competence of would-be specialists in the field of power engineering, who are able to perform all the types of engineering activity using the relevant metalanguage in their professional environment.

The article deals with the peculiarities of professional foreign language training of tactical level officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It describes some problems of training military personnel in higher military educational establishments of Ukraine. The paper also considers some aspects of the AFU officers’ professional foreign language training. The contradictions of professional foreign language training include the inconsistency of the requirements for individual training in connection with the need for teamwork during military service activities. Strict regulation of actions in the military environment, the formation of tolerance, and willingness to destroy a person in combat or service also belong to the above-mentioned problems. In order to solve the problems of foreign language preparation, it is necessary to create conditions that would encourage a willingness to communicate with different foreign language speakers. They include the rejection of unified models of learning, ignoring the learner’s personal characteristics; the flexibility of constructing the educational process, the relevance of the process content side to the motivational orientations of the subjects of learning as well as motivational support of the educational process. The educators have to oppose the devaluation of universal values, encourage cultural pluralism, tolerance, the development of different types of thinking and respect the learner’s personal right to be a unique individual., У статті розкрито особливості професійної іншомовної підготовки офіцерів тактичного рівня ЗСУ.

In this paper the analyzes of the general education level of subject competence from physics of the first year students of National Transport University by the entrance control results was performed. The entrance control from physics was carried out at the beginning of 2017‒2018, 2018‒2019 and 2019‒2020 academic years. The tasks for entrance control included the problems, complexity of which did not go beyond the limits of the program of physics for general education institutions of the standard level. The number of students who performed the tasks of entrance control from physics was 540 people. The analysis of the results of the entrance control revealed that most of the first year students had significant difficulties in solving even simple qualitative and quantitative physical problems. The latter indicates that the general education level of subject competence from physics of first year students turned out to be low enough. Thus, it leads to significant difficulties in studying general physics course of the technical university level.Among the reasons for such low results of students from entrance control in physics are the following: insufficient theoretical training level of students from the general education physics course, which is a necessary condition for solving simple physical problems; insufficient motivation of students to perform the tasks of entrance control. The following is suggested to improve the situation: during the current control, together with other forms, it is worth to use physical dictation, which will contribute to raising the theoretical training level of students from general physics course. In order to increase students’ motivation to perform the entrance control tasks from physics, a score for entrance control should be included into the students’ rating system in the first semester., У статті проаналізовано загальноосвітній рівень предметної компетентності з фізики студентів першого курсу Національного транспортного університету за результатами вхідного контролю, що містив задачі з вказаної навчальної дисципліни.

У статті актуалізовано проблему впровадження в освітній процес медіаосвітніх ресурсів у шкільній літературній освіті у 60–70-х роках ХХ століття. На основі аналізу праць учених розглянуто методику застосування засобів зорової та екранної наочності. Обґрунтовано, що запропоновані вченими-методистами форми, методи і прийоми роботи були спрямовані на формування в учнів умінь сприймати, аналізувати, інтерпретувати й використовувати друковані форми комунікації, кіно, радіо- та телепрограми., The article deals with the problem of using the media educational resources in the educational process as an effective means of implementing the culturological approach in school literary education in the 60–70-th of the XX century. The paper considers methods of using the various means of visual and screen visibility in the lessons of Ukrainian Literature based on the analysis of scientific and methodological works of researchers (T. Buhaiko, F. Buhaiko, P. Volynskyi, L. Kulins`ka, S. Melnychuk, V. Slupskyi). The work outlines the expediency of using the technical means of teaching at different stages of the lesson. The study proves that leading methodologists of the 20-th century, 60–70-th years, made an important contribution in the development and implementation of modern media educational resources into the school practice in order to culturologically equip a lesson of Ukrainian Literature. In the article the methods of using the visual means (portraits of writers, documentary photos, illustrations to artworks, literary posters, etc.) and screen visibility (implemented with the help of an epidiascope, filmscope and movie) proposed by T. Buhaiko, F. Buhaiko, P. Volynskyi are analyzed. The paper concentrates on the importance of S. Melnychuk and V. Slupskyi’s methodological and pedagogical ideas, aimed at determining the peculiarities of movie demonstration in the lessons of Ukrainian Literature (place and time of watching the film, duration of its demonstration, discussion of artwork and its film version, etc.). In addition, the article considers L. Kulinska’s methodological achievements regarding the using of audiovisual teaching means in the lessons of Ukrainian Literature. The author demonstrates L. Kulinska’s study of teachers-philologists’ advanced pedagogical experience of the XX century, the 60–70-th years; her experimental researches of didactic capabilities of the screen and audio visibility, contents and forms of work with them, and ways of their implementation in the school practice. The article shows that the forms, methods and techniques of using the technical means of teaching in the lessons of Ukrainian Literature, offered by the methodologists, were aimed at developing the students’ ability to perceive, competently analyze, interpret, skillfully evaluate and use printed forms of communication, film, radio and television programs. The author argues that these skills correlate with contemporary media educational tasks aimed at the developing media literacy, and teaching media culture of the XXI century students.

Стаття присвячена розкриттю специфіки формування фахових компетентностей майбутнього вчителя музичного мистецтва на заняттях з основного музичного інструменту. У процесі дослідження застосовувалися методи теоретичного та емпіричного дослідження (аналіз наукової літератури, синтез, систематизація, узагальнення). Опрацьовуючи наукові джерела ми відзначили, що проблемі формування фахових компетентностей присвячено багато праць, але проблема формування фахових компетентностей майбутнього вчителя музичного мистецтва на заняттях з основного музичного інструменту є недостатньо дослідженою., The paper deals with providing the insight into formation specifics of a future music teacher’s professional competencies in primary musical instrument classes. Theoretical and empirical research methods (analysis of academic literature, synthesis, systematization, generalization) were applied in the research process. Reviewing academic sources, we have noted that, while the matter of professional competency formation has been considered in many papers, the matter of a future music teacher’s formation of professional competencies in primary musical instrument classes is not studied sufficiently.Having analyzed educational and professional programs, we have determined that professional competencies of a future music teacher include:– artistic and aesthetic competency (centres around the formation of artistic worldview of a student);– psychological and pedagogical competency (mastery of basic knowledge in pedagogics and psychology, ability to implement it in learning and professional activities);– musical and theoretical competency (application of knowledge acquired in other disciplines when interpreting and performing a piece of music);– instrument competency (ability to use a musical instrument fluently);– performance competency (ability to conduct cultural, educational, as well as concert activities in the setting of a public performance).We have concluded that competency-based approach to the training of future music teachers is built on interdisciplinary relations of professional disciplines, where the subject area comes into correlation with a variety of music activities and targets at developing focus on self-development artistic potential of future music teachers.

The article deals with the functional and role positions of the primary school teacher in the context of the New Ukrainian School Concept’s implementation. At the present stage of Ukraine’s society development, modernization of the education system, introduction of new educational standards, the role of the teacher as an active subject of the pedagogical process is significantly increased. For this reason, the requirements for teacher’s personal and professional qualities, social and professional position are reflected, which appeared in the Concept of the New Ukrainian School.Thus, it is worth saying about the new functional and role-playing positions of the teacher – not only as a single mentor and source of knowledge, but as a coach, facilitator, tutor, moderator in the individual educational trajectory of the child. In particular, the paper characterizes typical pedagogical positions of the teacher in terms of position in the group (pedagogical interaction) and social system (social roles). Additionaly, it defines the socio-professional roles of the teacher in the modern educational process.The paper theoretically substantiates the content of the terms “tutor”, “facilitator”, “mentor”, “moderator” and “coach”: Tutor is a person who conducts individual or group classes with students. Facilitator is a teacher who stimulates and directs the process of self-seeking information and students’ activity, and supports the desire for self-fulfillment, self-improvement and self-development. Mentor is a person who is interested in developing of his students’ knowledge, skills and interpersonal relationships. Moderator is a mentor, leader, who supports and organizes the active work of the group. Coach is a trainer capable of making a person a champion and educating the winners.The work clarifies the peculiarities of the mentioned teacher roles’ sphere of functioning. Moreover, it analyzes the ways of personal and professional growth of teachers in the context of the NUS reform., У статті розглядаються функціонально-рольові позиції вчителя початкової школи в умовах реалізації Концепції «Нова українська школа».

This research paper is devoted to the clarification of mechanisms of correlation that function in the language and cognition. The study has been conducted on varied language material with the consideration of the level structure of modern linguistics, particularly phonetic, morphemic, lexical, morphological, syntactical levels. In this paper, we used the method of theoretical analysis of works and existing academic definitions based on the mechanisms of correlation that made it possible to determine differential signs that reveal its underlying content and interpretation. Applying correlation as a terminological notion, modern linguistics determines in it the following key signs and features: systemic relation, opposition nature, modeling character, dichotomous structure etc. The mechanisms of correlation embodied in the language (analogue, comparison, modelling, functional commonness etc.) that enable to learn the many-sided nature of being influence the person from the moment of birth, forming a naïve picture of the child’s world, introducing the child into the ethnic and language environment, familiarizing with the basics of material and spiritual culture, determining the most essential spatial sense coordinates in the cognition of the world. It is relevant to apply these mechanisms as a categorical notion, since it is the mechanism of correlation that becomes the background of the development of the conceptual language picture of the world of an ethnos, being the marker of the national language, traditions, culture, and human cognition. The category of correlation is a philosophical and esthetic notion of oppositional nature (e.g. object-subject, general-concrete, similar-different) the nature of which is in the character of human cognition itself, their mechanisms becoming the background of spreading any information (intellectual, spiritual, cultural, esthetic, imaginative, etc.). The mentioned specific features find their reflection in any language notion; they determine the language system of each ethnos. Keywords: correlation, cognition, ethnos, analogy, comparison, modelling, functional commonness, oppositional character, category.

Based on the analysis of literature, the paper reviews the characteristic of the application of the strength-based approach at the level of the territorial community, which has become widespread since the 1990s. It was stressed that this approach belongs to the emancipatory (developmental) macro-practice of social work and is aimed at using community resources to solve collective problems, as well as ensuring more equitable relations in the community. The paper highlights that for relatively stable situations in communities and in developing communities, the following strategies could be used: community participation; collective empowerment; asset-based community development. The authors specify the peculiarities of the application of these approaches in social work within territorial communities.While for crises and emergencies, a community resilience development strategy is more commonly used. This strategy involves building community members' ability to use their own resources to overcome emergencies and return to normal life. The paper reveals the process of working with territorial communities in emergencies and considers the following stages: assessment of losses and risks; determining community capacity; ensuring participation; education and training; formation of resilience. These stages are presented in such a way that the community can pass gradually or cyclically, in case when the impact of the emergency is prolonged or repeated.The paper features the key components of the strengths-based approach applied to social work with territorial community: community empowerment; collective action and self-organization; positive self-identification and community values; viability (resilience) of the community. The specifics of these strategies are outlined, their differences from the classical typology of community work models (by J. Rothman) are discussed.

The article focuses on building digital competencies in future teachers of the Humanities. It was established that introducing digital technology into studying the humanities generates new opportunities that had previously been unavailable. These issues are covered by Digital Humanities – a field of research, education and creation at a nexus of computer science and humanities. To solve the problem, a selective discipline, called Digital Technologies in Education, has been introduced. This can be adapted for retraining school teachers and university lecturers. The topics of the discipline are arranged in such a way that studying one module prepares students for covering every subsequent module. The whole course is divided into 4 modules: 1) Developing instructional materials by means of digital technologies; 2) Planning and organizing the learning process by means of digital technologies; 3) Distance learning; 4) Professional development as a way to manifest teacher’s identity. The practical use of this discipline will raise students’ awareness of digital technologies that will help them make this process easier and more effective; the students will explore popular software and services for distance learning arrangement and acquire skills of using them. Different aspects of teacher’s job are mentioned, they are as following: planning and organizing the learning process (this often entails a lot of paperwork); aspiration for professional development, learning new things, and adjusting curricula to modern reality.In this paper, we have presented the discipline, with the help of which students will gain and extend knowledge of all above-mentioned areas as well as practical skills of implementing digital technologies in education and professional life. Keywords: digital technologies; Digital Humanities; humanities; modern technologies; digital competence; education; selective discipline; humanitarization

The article describes the dominant tendencies of modern language education and substantiates the relevance of the text-centric study of the Ukrainian language. In the system of educational institutions, the emphasis is placed on learning the knowledge of the theory of language and is directed to the practical ability to use them. The teaching of the Ukrainian language is currently considered in the area of the formation of the communicative competence of the linguistic personality, its ability to actively produce and reproductive speech activity in oral and written form, in different situations and spheres of communication. The purpose of the paper is to determine the advantages, value, and significance of the text-centric study of the Ukrainian language to characterize the essence of the methodology of forming the linguistic personality on a textual basis, to develop and experimentally verify the methodical system of development of communicative skills using the technology of the development of critical thinking. Methods of research: theoretical ‒ analysis and synthesis of scientific sources, analysis of current programs, textbooks, manuals; empirical ‒ observation of the educational process; interviews with teachers and students, professors and students, questionnaires; deduction, induction; pedagogical experiment; statistical ‒ quantitative and qualitative analysis of the obtained results. The leading role in the system of training linguistic personality belongs to the communicative and cognitive methodology of teaching the Ukrainian language. Critical thinking as a kind of intellectual activity of a person is characterized by a high level of perception, comprehension, and analysis of the text in order to create his own statement. Text-centric study of the Ukrainian language appears as an integral methodical system that forms the skills of working with information (text) in the process of reproductive and productive speech activity. The application of the technology of critical thinking to the practice of language learning contributes to the formation of communicative competence. Keywords: language personality, cognitive technique, communicative technique, technology of Ukrainian language teaching, text-centric approach, text, discourse, technology of critical thinking.

In modern linguistics the research of verb syntax and semantics is still relevant. Although there are a number of Ukrainian dialectologists’ works on the verbs functioning in the structure of the dialect language at different levels, the problem of realization of verb syntactic and semantic valency in the Eastern Polissian dialect in the context of the Ukrainian literary language is still not considered, that shows the relevance of the proposed research. The sources of the research are the dialect materials recorded during 2009–2019 by the author in Chernihiv and Sumy regions, materials of «Dictionary of the Ukrainian language» (in 11 vol. and in 20 vol.), «Phraseological dictionary of the Ukrainian language» (in 2 books) and «General regionally annotated Corpus of the Ukrainian language» (version 10). During the research it is applied the method of purposeful interview - for recording of the dialect material, the descriptive method, which includes methods of observation, interpretation and comparison, which represents dialect material in the paper, the methods of contextual analysis - to identify the semantic processes and the methods of corpus analysis - to define the literary equivalents. Although the paper does not provide a systematic study of the difference between the verb syntactic and semantic valency in the dialect and literary languages, but the general tendencies of dialect phenomena are outlined, in particular the author reveals the reduction of preposition на in the construction С|векар ме|не л’уба|ваўс’а, syntactic localism - |ноде |буд’еш, voice transposition and diathesis change in the context of syntagmatics in the constructions Йа |пасʼ:а ← Йа пас |конеĭ with the saving of subject’s activity, expanding the repertoire of meanings in the constructions Йа на |конʼах ро|биў, Йа |кʼінʼми ро|биў ‘graze horses’, Га|моним на ўс’у |губу ‘to speak a lot of the dialect language’ (negative), |Баби мужи|ком ба|лакайутʼ ʻto speak in a rough voice (about a woman)ʼ in the context of the literary language. The use of the corpus (GRAK-10) helps to establish the functioning of corresponding to the recorded in dialect constructions in the literary language. The linguistic data revealed in the Eastern Polissian dialect testify either a larger archaic syntactic and semantic matrix, or an actualization of the dialect speakers’ language creation, that requires further investigation.

The paper is devoted to the status of dialects of the settlements in Nadvirna district, Ivano-Frankivsk region, which required a through studying of the works of well-known dialectologists of the boundaries of pokutskyi, naddnistrianskyi, hutsulskyi, boikivskyi dialects. The paper contains the analysis of the linguistic maps of AUL (Atlas of the Ukrainian language), made by S. Bevzenko, О. Horbach, Ya. Zakrevska, F. Zhylko, Ya. Yanіv, Т. Yastremska; it also includes descriptive works of the researchers of sub-dialects of a south-west dialect where dialects of settlements of Nadvirna distirct, Ivano-Frankivsk region were represented. The material, cartographed by precursors, has proved that dialects of Nadvirna area are not similar at all language levels. It was stated that researchers chose various networks of dialects which did not allow them to draw demarcation lines between hutsulskyi, naddnistrianskyi, pokutskyi and boikivskyi dialects. In descriptive works about these dialects a starting point in defining boundaries is Nadvirna, part of Nadvirna district (except for the settlements in the north), part of Nadvirna area to the north of Yaremche and others. The attention has been paid to the fact that a demarcation line can stretch for tens and hundreds of kilometers. The assumption has been made that a greater part of Nadvirna area will have a status of transitional dialects. Some own maps of lexical-semantic phenomena, which helped separate groups of dialects – a northern group, a south-eastern group, were analyzed. It has been stated that a larger number of cartographic data will enable to elaborate the boundaries of dialects which contact, to determine transitional dialects, to identify zones and groups of dialects on Naddniprianshchyna area.

The paper describes the results of a research study on the problem of future teachers’ training based on the analysis of scientific literature and law regulated documents. The analysis revealed two main innovative approaches (regulatory-directed and subjectively intended) to future foreign languages teachers’ training in institutions of higher education in Ukraine that appear in the new changes in higher education in particular. The authors found out that mentioned innovative approaches should be evaluated as the most powerful and positive in their results: structural and semantic upgrade of future teachers’ training in higher education institutions (three-level model of training, additional profiles training, competence-oriented content training) and provide its further resource update (personnel, informational, technological, etc.).

The article considers the didactic conditions of musical training of choreographers in higher education institutions of our state. In this work the structural didactic features of musical competence of choreographers are defined, such as: feature of professional activity planning; ways and methods of performing professional activities; communication techniques; organizational skills of choreographers; features of dance and motor motility. The article also states that the author considers an individual approach to take into account the ways of adapting the properties of studentsʼ nervous system to the requirements of professional activity as an effective method of musical training of choreographers in domestic higher education institutions. The article also deals with an individual approach, which takes into account the individual differences of students, the development of techniques, tools and methods of forming professional and musical skills of choreographers, due to the typological properties of the nervous system. At the heart of the individual approach considered in the study there is the idea of understanding a developing student as a person with a unique set of individual qualities. This involves the recognition of different, but equivalent in effectiveness methods of educational and creative activities that meet the objective requirements of the professional activity of the teacher and the individual characteristics of the future specialist.Also, in this paper, it is noted that in pedagogical science didactics is connected with the methods of teaching courses. The method of teaching folk dance is somewhat different from other choreographic disciplines due to the specifics of national dance. All textbooks, programs and methodical materials on folk choreography are authorʼs versions and naturally cannot be accepted by all experts identically. Keywords: musical training, music theory, choreographer, professional training, didactics, didactic bases of training, professional skill, systematic approach to musical training.

The paper deals with theoretical analysis and practical development of the problem of learning English scientific vocabulary by Master students in the course of “English for Academic Purposes”. English is used for a wide range of communicative intentions, in particular, for scientific communication. Academic communication is one of the leading, as it contributes to the development of science and society. English scientific vocabulary allows students to gain access to modern science and the opportunity to present the results of their research to the world community, prepare scientific written works on their specialty. The purpose of this article is to develop an innovative system of exercises for teaching scientific vocabulary in the English for Academic Purposes course. The analysis of modern linguistic, psychological, linguodidactic researches has allowed to define the basic features of innovative approaches to the academic discourse scientific vocabulary learning. Using a method of systematization and classification of language material and a method of logical-didactic relationship of pedagogical actions, we have developed a system of exercises for mastering scientific vocabulary by Master students in the English for Academic Purposes course. The system of exercises provides the language acquisition by students through repetition of language units in the isolated form and in form of original and adapted scientific sentences and pedagogical texts according to students’ specialty. The system of exercises is aimed at learning general scientific and abstract vocabulary, pedagogical terms, set expressions, abbreviations, linking phrases and verbs.

The article deals with the peculiarities of professional foreign language training of tactical level officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It describes some problems of training military personnel in higher military educational establishments of Ukraine. The paper also considers some aspects of the AFU officers’ professional foreign language training. The contradictions of professional foreign language training include the inconsistency of the requirements for individual training in connection with the need for teamwork during military service activities. Strict regulation of actions in the military environment, the formation of tolerance, and willingness to destroy a person in combat or service also belong to the above-mentioned problems. In order to solve the problems of foreign language preparation, it is necessary to create conditions that would encourage a willingness to communicate with different foreign language speakers. They include the rejection of unified models of learning, ignoring the learner’s personal characteristics; the flexibility of constructing the educational process, the relevance of the process content side to the motivational orientations of the subjects of learning as well as motivational support of the educational process. The educators have to oppose the devaluation of universal values, encourage cultural pluralism, tolerance, the development of different types of thinking and respect the learner’s personal right to be a unique individual.

In this paper the analyzes of the general education level of subject competence from physics of the first year students of National Transport University by the entrance control results was performed. The entrance control from physics was carried out at the beginning of 2017‒2018, 2018‒2019 and 2019‒2020 academic years. The tasks for entrance control included the problems, complexity of which did not go beyond the limits of the program of physics for general education institutions of the standard level. The number of students who performed the tasks of entrance control from physics was 540 people. The analysis of the results of the entrance control revealed that most of the first year students had significant difficulties in solving even simple qualitative and quantitative physical problems. The latter indicates that the general education level of subject competence from physics of first year students turned out to be low enough. Thus, it leads to significant difficulties in studying general physics course of the technical university level.Among the reasons for such low results of students from entrance control in physics are the following: insufficient theoretical training level of students from the general education physics course, which is a necessary condition for solving simple physical problems; insufficient motivation of students to perform the tasks of entrance control. The following is suggested to improve the situation: during the current control, together with other forms, it is worth to use physical dictation, which will contribute to raising the theoretical training level of students from general physics course. In order to increase students’ motivation to perform the entrance control tasks from physics, a score for entrance control should be included into the students’ rating system in the first semester.
