FEATURES OF ADAPTATION OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS TO THE PROFESSION

This article deals with the problem of adaptation of younger schoolchildren to the profession. The essence of the concept of adaptation is revealed, attention is focused on identifying the features of adaptation of younger schoolchildren to the profession. The problem of children's adaptation to the profession from an early age creates favorable conditions for the activities of the younger generation in the conscious choice of their future profession. The need to adapt children from an early age to the profession, outlined in the Address of the Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to the people of Kazakhstan, is associated with the development of science. The development of science is our most important priority. Also in the article, the main aspects of the phenomenon of adaptation of younger schoolchildren to the profession can begin with the definition of its features. Forms a single self-governing system as a result of adaptive activity to perception, allowing to realize a human orientation that combines psychophysiological, socio-psychological, activity-psychological ways of interacting with the environment and all levels of mental organization. A number of scientists consider human adaptation to be inextricably linked with socialization. Overall adaptability matters. The process of overcoming each individual problem situation can be considered as a process of socio-psychological adaptation of a person, during which she applies the skills acquired at previous stages of her development and socialization, behavioral models or discovers new ways of behavior and problem solving, new programs and plans for internal psychological processes. When the mechanisms of human adaptation lead to the adaptation of a person to a social situation and the natural environment, he successfully performs this function.
Didaskological format of digitalization of university training as an activation factor of students' personal potential

Problem and objective. In the context of digitalization of university education, there is a problem of teachers’ readiness to use information technologies in the logic of development student personality. The aim of the study is to develop a format for the active inclusion of teachers as guides and subjects of the information technologies implementation aimed at activating the personal potential of students. Research methods. The study used methods for designing the pedagogical implementation of information technologies in education. Experimental and monitoring work included 94 students and 9 teachers of the Belgorod National Research University and the Belgorod State Technological University named after V.G. Shukhov. Diagnostic measurements were carried out using the following techniques: Method of diagnosing the directionality of educational motivation, Metacognitive Awareness Inventory, Morphological test of life values (MTLV), Method of diagnosing self-realization in university training. Statistical calculations included methods of parametric statistics, as well as the method of analyzing the significance of differences (using Student's t-test). Results of the study. The study presents a didaskological format for introducing information technologies, which consists of teachers linking these technologies to their teaching activities as tools for the development of educational communications to activate the personal potential of students. The application of the didascological format in the practice of online-learning for students of different universities has shown its promise. Students in the experimental group showed higher indicators of internal learning motivation (tEMP = 5.1), metacognitive involvement in learning (tEMP = 3.1), metacognitive regulation (tEMP = 3.6) due to a more noticeable information management strategy (tEMP = 4.6), control of components (tEMP = 4.3), planning (tEMP = 4.1) and assessing the effectiveness of the strategy (tEMP = 2.9). There is also an increase in the level of metacognitive knowledge (tEMP = 2.8) due to an increase of procedural knowledge (tEMP = 3.5) and conditional knowledge (tEMP = 3.1). Some values increase their significance for students, such as self-development (tEMP = 4.7), creativity (tEMP = 4.5), moral satisfaction (tEMP = 3.9) and achievement values (tEMP = 3.3). Higher level of self-realization are also recorded, in particular personal involvement in learning (tEMP = 3.2) and realization of abilities (tEMP = 2.9). Conclusion. The didascological format proposed in the study has no equivalent analogues in contemporary researches. Its uniqueness lies in the formation of a proactive and determining factor of the implementation of information technologies in higher school, namely the professional readiness of teachers for the qualified use, control and management of these technologies for the development of students' personal potential, which is the constructive and applied significance of the work done.

Introduction. In modern conditions, which require a qualitative transformation of a professional position from a teacher, the teacher's readiness to select effective teaching technologies that contribute to the formation of students' meta-subject results and apply them in teaching mathematics is of particular importance. The purpose of the study is to obtain and interpret information about the teaching technologies used by mathematics teachers, focused on achieving meta-subject results of students. Methodology and methods. The study involved 164 mathematics teachers from 31 educational institutions in Krasnoyarsk. The monitoring took into account the age and experience of the pedagogical activity of the respondents. Open observation of the activities of teachers, interviews and questionnaires were used. When conducting the survey, the author's questionnaire was used, containing questions aimed at identifying the attitude of mathematics teachers to the design of the educational process using various teaching technologies, as well as the degree of their effectiveness, according to the respondents, in the formation of students' meta-subject results. The interview was conducted in a semi-structured form and aimed, along with monitoring the pedagogical activities of mathematics teachers, to clarify the possible reasons for the frequency and systematic use of these teaching technologies in the process of teaching mathematics. Results. The optimal list of teaching technologies, focused on the formation of meta-subject educational results of students in the process of studying mathematics, has been determined. On this basis, a toolkit for monitoring research has been developed (questions from a questionnaire, a semi-structured interview). The attitude of teachers of mathematics in Krasnoyarsk about the use of various teaching technologies in their professional activities was revealed: 88% of teachers expressed their willingness to use learning technologies to form meta-subject results, and only 45% of them apply these technologies systematically. From the point of view of respondents, information and communication technologies (100%), collaborative learning (82%) and gaming technologies (80%) were recognized as the most effective in terms of the formation of meta-subject results of students. The problems of selection and application of teaching technologies by teachers when designing a modern mathematics lesson are fixed: low skill of self-designing a lesson using a certain technology (100%), large time costs for mastering and implementation (98%), the need for additional methodological training (96%). Conclusion. The results of the monitoring study are of practical importance for further research of methodological problems and difficulties of mathematics teachers, and are the basis for the development of personalized support measures for teachers; creating a register of effective methodological practices.
