The development of education is inextricably linked with high paced technological progress and its multitude of products. Such advancement requires foreign language teachers to not only learn about and utilize such new technological products in their classrooms, but also to discover creative ways they can be applied in enhancing their personal career development. As a result, during the last decade (2008  2018) the number of electronic portfolios on the Internet has increased significantly. They include materials for the educational process and teacher achievements by means of PowerPoint presentations, Wiki-pages, blogs, and sites. Thus, the purpose of this article is to cover the basics of constructing a professional electronic portfolio as a technique of developing creativity of a foreign language teacher aimed to maximize professional skills; meeting professional needs; deepening; expanding and updating corresponding general and specialized knowledge. To facilitate the presentation of the example the article briefly introduces the concepts of «teacher portfolio», «electronic portfolio», «creativity», as they relate to the process of creating an electronic portfolio. The research also presents and describes an electronic portfolio structure taking into account the «can-do» descriptors, which characterize knowledge and skills (e.g., creativity) that a foreign language teacher should demonstrate and develop. Besides, there is a recommendation to use such Google services as Google Drive, YouTube, Google Photos, Google Maps, Google Calendar, Google Play, Google Hangouts, Google Classroom, Blogger, and Google Sites for creating an electronic portfolio. The authors offer an example of the electronic portfolio that consists of three main parts: «Personal Statement», «Self-Assessment», and «Dossier». The «can-do» descriptors are divided into seven categories there: «Context», «Methodology», «Resources», «Lesson Planning», «Conducting a Lesson», «Independent Learning», and «Assessment of Learning».

The article substantiates the methodological approaches that reflect the interrelation and interconditionality of phenomena and processes of formation of the information and communication competence of future specialists in preschool education, namely: system- and activity-based, personally-oriented, integrative, environmental and competence-based. The authors have determined that the personally-oriented approach presupposes that each student must fulfill as much as possible all their individual traits in their diversity and uniqueness; the integrative approach contributes to overcoming the contradictions between the principle of unity of knowledge and its division into fundamental and special ones, as well as those between the ever-increasing amount of knowledge and the limited school time to learn it; the environmental approach promotes the creation of the informational and communication environment of a higher educational institution which influences the formation of informational and communication competence of future specialists in preschool education and is an influential factor for introducing the innovations in the educational process and gives students an opportunity to choose free the content and form of activity; the competence-based approach defines the ability of a future specialist in preschool education to apply the information and communication technologies in the educational process, use information, be flexible and adapt in a changing information space in accordance with their own needs and requirements of the modern society. It has been established that the process of formation of the information and communication competence of future specialists in preschool education is conditioned by a special organization of the teaching and educational process at a higher educational institution which ensures the unity, interrelation, consideration and development of the professional and information and communication components in future specialists in preschool education, with proper purposefulness, the relevant gradual organization and procedural and content-related support. The authors have also presented the definition of information and communication environment of a higher educational institution.

Authors: Derkach Tetiana M.
Published: February 2019

Implementation of electronic learning resources into the teaching of chemical disciplines in higher school does not always lead to an improvement in students' mastery of the material. Therefore, the optimal choice of effective electronic resources for the teaching of basic chemical disciplines is an urgent task. The purpose of the work was to identify the resources that are relevant to the teaching of physical chemistry from the point of view of both teachers and students. Specific questionnaires were developed to achieve the goal, and a survey of pedagogical process participants (students and faculty members) was conducted, followed by statistical processing of the survey results. The expediency of usage of 41 e-resources was investigated, and 21 resources were identified as suitable for the study of a university course in physical chemistry. Among them, eight e-resources were found to be important for teaching most topics of the discipline, and so are attributed to universal resources. Another thirteen resources are important for teaching some topics and ineffective for others (specific resources). At the same time, only five universal and eight specific resources are currently used in the practice of the Faculty of Chemistry of Olesj Honchar Dnipropetrovsk National University. Some discrepancies have been identified between teachers and students concerning resource preferences that create the preconditions for the loss of effectiveness of the use of such resources. Since the use of some electronic resources is sensitive to learning styles, existing styles for faculties and students were analysed. The main differences consist in the explicit preferences of the faculty for reflective and global styles, while students are characterised by predominantly active and sequential learning styles. The results obtained regarding the effectiveness of e-resource usage are discussed from the viewpoint of preferences in learning styles characteristic of students and teachers of natural sciences.

The article discusses the transformation of teaching in the transition from traditional material-object environment to learning in a digital synthetic environment. Attention is paid to the fact that, to date, students prefer online and mixed learning, in which human interaction with technical training tools creates not only new opportunities, but also requires the coordination of their interaction. A brief description of the main features of training usage of new technological capabilities is given, with emphasis on such aspects as virtual and augmented reality, as well as the use of game-oriented technologies with an emphasis on reflexive games. The analysis of the changes in the properties of the new learning environment is given from the standpoint of biotechnology, developing the principles of harmonizing human capabilities with technical systems (accounting for the human factor) in a digital learning environment, in which a person is transferred to a new interactive space using devices that reflect signals in his/her sensory organs, and devices that perceive different actions. The variants of teaching technologies on new principles are offered, which allow improving the quality of mastering the educational material. It is noted that the basis for the creation of complex synthetic learning environments are biotechnical systems, which a variety of means for controlling the content of images for the models of these environments are provided in, both by a researcher and a student. It is proposed to extend the concept of "biotechnical system" by including so-called "biotechnical technologies" in it, which becomes especially relevant in the digital world. The difference between these types of technologies is in the fact that great importance should be given to operations that are associated with ensuring the safety of work and creating optimal conditions for the life and work of a person. At the same time, the person interacts primarily with information technologies, with information and knowledge affecting him, but not with material objects, in both the process of management, and the process of studying the outside world for the purpose of its effective use.

The article researches methods of imitational modeling of matrixes containing primary grading obtained in educational testing by the means of statistical programming language R. Unique algorithms and functions were developed to allow generating of matrix of the primary grades according to corresponding test of the defined structure. The importance of this approach is defined by several reasons, specifically the needs to: create reference samples; analyze primary grades by means of CTT (Clasic Test Theory) and IRT; predict basic statistical test characteristics; clarify parameters for the calibrated tasks; model independent parameters for the test takers; increase and development educator’s competency. It should be noted that input parameters could be generated or set up manually. Comparable analysis was conducted for created functions against already existing function packages, such as eRm, ltm, mcIRT, as well as statistical analysis of the generated matrixes. This analysis took into consideration the following procedures: verification of hypothesis about compatibility between generated matrixes and set parameters for the testing tasks per criteria; verification of hypothesis about equivalence of average grades in entire matrix according Student criteriа; verification of hypothesis about equality for vectors of correct answers relative frequencies by columns according to Hotteling criteriа; comparison of theoretical characteristic curves with empirical probabilities; comparison of set parameters for task complexity and parameters graded by generated matrixes with consideration of errors in grading. An experimental system of imitational modeling and analysis for testing results was created. Such system combines contemporary methods of IRT and methods of Classical Testing Theory (CTT). It allows generating matrixes of primary testing grades and performing test results analysis; permits computation of basic statistical characteristics of the test, estimation of the latent parameters, construction of characteristic curves and informational functions. The system graphic shell was generated with the help of the package Shiny. The system utilizes modeling and analysis for testing results according to basic IRT models: Rasch, Birnbaum, Suh-Bolt, Rasch-Masters. A performance verification for algorithms and functions implemented into the system has been done by utilizing several noted statistical methods and procedures; and correct execution of these algorithms has been confirmed.

The article substantiates the criteria for assessing the preparedness of future geologists from college graduates - to use geoinformation systems (hereinafter - GIS) and technologies (hereinafter - GIT) in their future professional activities and defines the indicators of these criteria. We have proved that when purposeful implementation of the system of pedagogical conditions regarding their preparation for the use of GIS there are significant potential opportunities for geologists to form geo-informational competence in them as an integral part of their information competence as a professional subject. Proving the readiness to use GIS, taking into account the structure and content of geo-informational competence, we have taken into account the theoretical and practical aspects of their preparation. The process of mastering the complex of intellectual, activity and subjective capabilities and the formation of the main types of readiness (professional, personal, psychological) for the application of GIS in the process of realizing their competences for a specific post is described. These are the following criteria: value-motivational, professional-cognitive, technological, individual-psychological and subjective. We have proved that such a system of criteria makes it possible to comprehensively diagnose the preparedness of future geologists for the professional use of GIS in their professional activities. In particular, these criteria give an opportunity to find out their positive attitude to the chosen specialty - the geologist and to the application of GIS and GIT in the process of professional activity as a subject of geological existence; formation and development of internal motivation to master this specialty and its modern information technologies, including directly geological; the formation and development of a system of special professional knowledge, skills and abilities in many branches of science, which forms the basis of the theoretical ability of a geologist to work on modern GIS; formation and development of special practical abilities of GIT as a subject of specific - geological - being; formation of professionally important qualities and professional, informational and geoinformational - thinking of a geologist, necessary for work on modern GIS; formation the subject of geoinformation activity in the field of geology. We discovered that due to the fact that the geologist at the same time is a geological subject (in the direction of preparation), such geoinformation activities (as an expert in the field of geology) of activities, he must have formed professionally important qualities that contribute to the successful implementation of official competencies in the information society as a geological worker.

Published: February 2019

The technology of integration of learning methods, forms and means of information and communication technologies is described with due regards for psychological and pedagogical characteristics of student groups. The results of theoretical and experimental research conducted on the basis of two Ukrainian universities with the participation of 341 students in the "Chemistry" training area and 18 lecturers of basic chemical disciplines are highlighted. Both students and lecturers were polled in a specially designed questionnaire to show their attitude to the use of various electronic learning resources in learning and teaching basic chemical disciplines. Students’ preferences in learning styles were estimated on the basis of a self-scoring questionnaire for assessing preferences on four complementary dimensions, such as perception (sensitive or intuitive), input (visual or verbal), processing (active or reflective) and understanding (sequential or global) of chemical information. Such an approach is known as the method of Felder-Soloman, and it allows one to calculate Indices of Learning Style which assess qualitatively available preferences of all respondents in each of the four available directions. The developed technology allows lecturers to qualify an optimal set of electronic learning resources for the teaching of individual sections of chemistry, taking into account preferences in their use of students with different learning styles. The technology under development is based on the calculation of average resource scores as assessed by all students in the group, as well as on the expert evaluation of the feasibility of their application in the teaching of basic chemical disciplines. The taxonomy of the optimal selection of electronic learning resources and teaching methods is developed for each type of students’ learning preferences. Advantages and disadvantages of all available variants of the application of the developed technology are discussed for student groups of different compositions. An example of the application is given for studying the discipline "Inorganic Chemistry".

The article describes the theoretical and methodological aspects of the development of a structural-processual model for the development of information and communication competency of future specialists in preschool education. It consists of a set of interconnected blocks (methodological, target-oriented, operational, and productive). The model has been implemented at the information-orientated, cognitive-developmental, activity-transformational and creative stages. The authors identify that at the information-orientation stage prospective specialists of preschool education acquire theoretical knowledge that reflects their awareness of information and communication technologies and scientific and methodological bases of implementation the latter in kindergartens. It is emphasized that the cognitive development stage involves intensive creation of knowledge and skills for searching, processing, transmission and preservation of information that forms the information and communication basis for future professional activity in a kindergarten due to introduction of the educational discipline "ICT in working with children” into the university curricula of preschool specialists’ training. At the activity-transformation stage, there is greater involvement of students in individual and collective educational and research activities using computer software. It allows to visualize information figuratively and vividly both during preschool specialists’ training and while working with preschool children. At the creative stage, the development of information and communication competency of future preschool teachers involves testing of the acquired experience on using ICT during the teaching practice in a kindergarten. The article presents scientific considerations of the national and foreign scholars on the essential characteristics of the concept "information and communication competency". Terminological analysis of the concepts of "modeling" and "model" has been carried out.

A methodology of training pilots’ listening skills by means of a computer tool is highlighted in the article. Various computer exercises are used to enhance the learners’ level of English as well as improve their listening skills. English is one of the crucial factors influencing flight safety; pilot’s ability to listen, hear, interpret and react to controller’s information in English is of paramount importance during radio communication. It is emphasized that the development of computer software and appearance of new computerized tools predetermine the search for new methods of teaching Aviation English to future pilots and air traffic controllers. One of the ways how to enhance the level of professional training is implementation of ICT in the teaching and learning process. Computer technologies and technical means of language training can simulate the flight situations that a pilot may encounter during his/her professional activity. In the article the authors demonstrate one of the useful methods – application of a computer tool for training listening skills in Aviation English. The computer tool is aimed at training pilots’ listening skills. It can be used to prepare students for achieving ICAO Operational Level (Level 4) or higher according to the ICAO Language Proficiency Requirements. It consists of six tasks based on general aviation English and phraseology of radio communication. Based on the proposed methodology the experiment with Aviation graduate students was carried out, which was based on the implementation of the computer tool into the course «Phraseology of radio communication». Listening skills’ assessment was conducted according to three criteria: cognitive (knowledge), operational (skills), psychological (abilities) and their descriptors. According to the level of listening skills three levels – low, medium and high were differentiated. The results of the experimental study indicate that there have been positive changes in the distribution of students’ levels of listening skills in the phraseology of radio communication in English with the introduction of the computer tool: the number of students with high- and medium-level of listening skills increased whereas that of low-level listening skills decreased.
