Energy Operations for Resident and Its Implications for Economic Growth: Indonesia’s New Capital City as a Case Study
Authors: Rosyadi Rosyadi , Hasid Zamruddin , Purwadi Purwadi
Published: July 2023

The topic of "IKN" is not just a discourse. This is good news for Indonesia which is trying to be free from prosperity conflicts, which so far have only been concentrated in one area. What is more crucial is that the struggle for economic resources is also always won by regions that have inclusive GRDP growth, competitive workers, and solid infrastructure facilities, especially in Java. This is because regions such as Kalimantan, their economic prospects are sinking because the transformation of consumption and purchasing power is not working. Therefore, this paper initiates the relationship between population, electricity, water production, and regional/GRDP growth in the center of IKN and 4 buffer zones. Systematics in data extraction uses panel regression which presents time-series data (8 periods). Valuable insights conclude some important findings. The population has been proven to increase electricity in PPU, Paser, Balikpapan and Samarinda. Positive causality also indicates the effect of population on water production in PPU and Balikpapan. However, it also influences positively. On the other hand, electric power has a positive impact on economic growth in PPU, while in Paser, water production actually increases economic growth. Population as the only variable that has no effect on economic growth in all cases. Only Kukar has all the opposite variables and has a negative effect. Finally, preparations towards a fair IKN development perspective consider long and short term policy packages.

Authors: Garcia Lucas B. , Alves Fiore Fabiana , Carvalho Fernando L. C.
Published: July 2023

The increased demand for electricity and greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the current energy matrix reinforces the need to expand the use of renewable energy. The conversion of solar energy into electrical energy is the fastest growing worldwide and Brazil has a potential greater than that of developed countries that use it on a large scale. However, it is observed that decentralized generation with the use of photovoltaic panels, in households, occurs at a slower pace than in other countries. We studied a case of the municipality of São José dos Campos, a city with a high human development index in the state of São Paulo, seeking to understand the relevant factors that affect the expansion of installation and use of solar energy. We developed the case study from the collection of information with actors in the process, namely, the government and residents of four neighborhoods in the city. Among the research results, the importance of public guidance for the expansion of the use of technology stand out; the recognition of the use of solar energy, especially in neighborhoods where there are already similar facilities and in those with high purchasing power. It was also found that cultural barriers to the appropriation of technology can be overcome by referential learning and by raising the awareness of the population on environmental issues.
Carbon Emissions, Energy Consumption, and Economic Growth in Morocco
Authors: Benali Mimoun , Benabbou Laila
Published: July 2023

This study examines the relationship between carbon emissions, energy consumption, and economic growth in Morocco from 1990 to 2021. The ARDL technique was employed to analyze the long and short-term relationships among the variables. Results reveal a long-term relationship between carbon emissions, energy consumption, and economic growth in Morocco. Additionally, economic growth was found to have a positive and significant impact on carbon emissions both in the short and long term, supporting the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis. Policymakers and governments must prioritize investments in energy efficiency improvements and carbon emissions reductions through effective environmental policies and infrastructure investments while emphasizing alternative and renewable energy sources.

Published: July 2023

Energy is a fundamental element for development in all countries. However, the problem is that not all people have access to energy, especially in Indonesia where 42% of the population lives in rural areas. The Indonesian government has created a Village Funds program to improve rural and energy development. This study aims to uncover the effectiveness of using the Village Fund, especially for affordable and clean energy, to support achieving Sustainable Development Goal number 7. The method used in this research is a case study method using document study and several interviews with the member of Fiscal Ministry of Indonesia. The result shows that after mapping all Village Funds activities during 2018-2020, Kalimantan and Sulawesi become the most extensive realization of the use of Village Funds to alternative and renewable energy activities. To achieve SDGs number 7, the allocation of Village Funds for renewable energy development still needs to be increased, especially in the island of Java. The role of government in making Village Funds policy is still required. Village development should not only focus on infrastructure, but the affordability of village communities to develop clean and renewable energy is also important.

Authors: Imeokparia Lawrence , Peter Olaoye Olusegun , Bello Bahiru Akande , Osabohien Romanus , Aderemi Timothy Ayomitunde , Gershon Obindah , Aaron Disi , Abidemi Alejo
Published: July 2023

The objective of this research is to determine the impact of oil exports on poverty reduction in African oil exporting countries. The study spanned over 30 years, from 1991 to 2020, and relied on secondary data extracted from ten (10) highest oil-producing countries in Africa. The human development index (HDI) was used as a proxy for poverty reduction. The Panel ARDL technique was used to analyse the data. According to the findings of this study, the oil exports using revenues from oil exportation and total annual barrels of oil produced had a beneficial impact on human capital development and thus reduced poverty in the selected African oil-exporting countries. The impact of total revenue from oil exports, on the other hand, was statistically insignificant, although the impact of total annual barrels of oil produced was not. As a result of these findings, the study finds that in the long run, oil revenues had a positive impact on poverty reduction in oil-exporting African countries, although not to a significant extent. This implies that the study does not provide empirical evidence to support the existence of resource curse hypothesis. In view of the above findings, this study recommends that the policymakers in African oil exporting countries should utilize the proceeds from the oil exports for the human development oriented programmes that have trickle down effects on poverty reduction in these countries.

Authors: Sabir Sadia , Sabir Nazish , Mushtaq Ayesha , Gul Merman , Khan Muhammad Jawad
Published: July 2023

Background: The rise of a viral respiratory sickness was recognized in China and later known as COVID-19. The current study reports the epidemiological and clinical attributes of COVID-19 in Baluchistan.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the epidemiological parameters and route of transmission of COVID-19 positivity that will help the health department develop future strategies to handle deadly pandemics.

Methodology: This study was performed by gathering information from patients with their socioeconomics, epidemiological status, history of comorbidity, and clinical signs of the disease. The data was collected from the COVID-19 dashboard. A correlation test was applied to evaluate the connection between clinical pathological parameters.

Results: A sum of 3999 clinical records was analyzed. Total 70.8% of patients were positive, and 29.2% were negative. The most affected group was aged 22-42, however, disease severity increased with age. Most positive patients had a high fever, severe cough, sore throat, body ache, shortness of breath and comorbidity on clinical pathological grounds. The earliest reported cases of the infection were connected to travelers returning to Pakistan from Iran. The spread among men was higher as compared to women.

Conclusion: This report will display a linkage between the studies of disease transmission and clinical features which thus can be helpful to forestall the local transmission of similar infections in future. The epidemiological literature on this topic from Baluchistan is scarce.
Urban Church Planting: Three Functional Shifts from the New Testament
Authors:   Andrews University, WagenerSmith Anthony
Published: July 2023

"Indeed, the very pulse of Adventist ministry beats strongest through apostolic mission. A basic consideration of the practical and exegetical link between the second advent of Christ and the apostolic witness for Christ must generate significant shifts in thinking and practice. Describing these as functional shifts rather than paradigm shifts—to emphasize the connection between theology and practice—what better framework to reflect upon urban church planting than that of the New Testament Church. Looking through a disciple-making and church planting lens, one can be challenged by three functional shifts for urban mission today: from places to people, from performers to equippers, and from affinity to diversity."

A Theological Framework for Adventist Urban Ministry
Authors:   Adventist University of Africa, Onongha Kelvin
Published: July 2023

"Early Adventism typically advocated the need to flee the cities for simple rural living because cities were regarded as Babylon (Jer 50:1-3; Rev 18:2-3). Consequently, in those regions of the world where the church’s presence has the longest history with sometimes larger congregations, many church properties are located in the countryside or rural areas. A major reason why the Adventist Church is only so lately coming to terms with the exigency of urban ministries is the deficiency of a theological framework for engagement in missions to the cities. Stone (2015) agrees that the failure to develop a theology for the cities is a factor in the inadequacy of mission initiatives in urban areas. The objective of this paper is to present a theological framework for Adventist urban ministries that will provide an impetus for effective and sustained mission programs in urban settings. This framework will be developed from a biblical study of God and the city, an examination of Ellen White’s writings on mission to the cities, and an exploration of contemporary challenges cities pose to the church’s task of taking the gospel commission to all regions of the world. This framework follows Van Engen’s (1994:249) tripartite theology of mission model comprising an interface between the biblical text, the faith community, and the urban context."
In These Cities Are Jewels: Lessons from Adventist City Missions—1880–1915
Authors:   General Conference Office of Archives, Statistics, and Research, Trim David
Published: July 2023

"As Ellen White’s words of 1909 imply, urban-focused mission has a long history in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It goes beyond the work of Dr. John Harvey Kellogg in Chicago, the one exemplar which is reasonably well known but which comes with proverbial baggage, given what happened with Kellogg. I will touch on the Chicago mission, but it was not unique; in fact, our pioneers established many city missions. And while they stressed practical experience they also valued analytical approaches. For example, in 1910, the first two days of the annual council were given over to what was essentially a scholarly conference, with papers read by various proponents and veterans of city missionary activity, crystalizing their experiences and lessons learned for church leaders to take away and apply."
First report of tinea corporis caused by Trichophyton quinckeanum in Iran and its antifungal susceptibility profile
Authors:   Invasive Fungi Research Center, Communicable Diseases Institute/Department of Medical Mycology, School of Medicine, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran, Aghili Seyed Reza
Published: July 2023

Background and Purpose: Trichophyton quinckeanum, a known zoophilic dermatophyte responsible for favus form in rodents and camels, is occasionally reported to cause human infections. Case Report: This study aimed to report a case of tinea corporis caused by T. quinckeanum that experienced annular erythematous pruritic plaque with abundant purulent secretions. In June 2021, a 15-year-old girl with an erythematous cup shape lesion on the right wrist bigger than 3 cm in diameter was examined for tinea corporis. Since March, 2016 her family has kept several camels at home. Direct examination of skin scraping and purulent exudates revealed branching septal hyaline hyphae and arthrospore. Morphological evaluation of the recovered isolate from the culture and sequencing of ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region resulted in the identification of T. quinckeanum. Antifungal susceptibility testing showed that this isolate had low minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for luliconazole,terbinafine, and tolnaftate, but high MICs to itraconazole, fluconazole, posaconazole, miconazole, isavuconazole, ketoconazole, clotrimazole, and griseofulvin. However, the patient was successfully treated with oral terbinafine and topical ketoconazole. Conclusion: It can be said that T. quinckeanum is often missed or misidentified due to its morphological similarity to T. mentagrophytes/T. interdigitale or other similar species. This dermatophyte species is first reported as the cause of tinea corporis in Iran. As expected, a few months after our study, T. quinckeanum was detected in other areas of Iran, in a few cases

Background: Aging is a period of human life in which general health, especially happiness, and hope, may be impaired. Also, sleep quality, general health, and happiness of the elderly begin o decline at this stage of life. The present study aimed to determine the effect of crocin of saffron on sleep quality, general health, and happiness in the elderly population Methods: In this triple-blind randomized trial, 70 elderly people referred to Kashan health center in 2020 were selected. The study samples were divided into intervention and control groups using computer-generated random numbers to receive 30 mg/d of crocin (2 plus crocin tablet, 15 mg Beck depression inventory [BID]) (n=35) or placebo (2 tablets per day, 15 mg Beck depression inventory [BID]) (n=35), one hour after taking food, for 4 weeks. The sleep quality, general health, and happiness were evaluated at the beginning of the study, 4 and 8 weeks after the intervention. Data were analyzed using Chi-square, independent t-test, and repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: The two groups were matched in terms of demographic characteristics (P>0.05). The independent t-test showed no significant difference between the two groups in the baseline (sleep quality P=0.55, general health P=0.060, and happiness P=0.83) while a statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups on the post-test (P=0.001) and follow-up for three variables. Conclusion: The consumption of crocin by elderly individuals had useful outcomes on sleep quality, well-being, and happiness. Given that the efficacy of the psychological drugs is vital, nurses can use natural medications, such as crocin to improve the psychological disorders of elderly people.

Background: Gender identification is a crucial starting point in creating a biological profile for human skeletal remains because it reduces the number of possible matches by 50%. The vertebrae (especially the chest and back) can also be some of the best-preserved skeletal elements in some areas of forensics and archeology. In the present study, gender and age were assessed based on the measurement of three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) scan indices of the Twelfth thoracic (T12) vertebrae and the first and fifth lumbar (L1 and L5) vertebrae in Iranian adults. Methods: The present study was a descriptive study carried out on 200 participants over 18 years of age in 2020. Individuals measuring thoracic and lumbar vertebrae diameters (T12 and first and fifth lumbar vertebrae) by three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) scan (Toshiba, Japan, 16-Slice) with multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) and volume rendering were placed in two sagittal and horizontal sections. Results: The mean age of male and female participants was 34.62±9.63 years and 34.10±9.70 years, respectively, which were not significantly different (P=0.789). The present study showed that the mean indices for T12, L1 and L5 vertebrae were significantly higher in males (P>0.05). The results also showed that T12, L1, and L5 indices of nuts are not good predictors for age estimation. Conclusion: Based on the results, the indices of the T12 vertebrae and the L1, and L5 vertebrae can be used to determine gender, but these indices are not a good criterion to estimate age and do not have the necessary accuracy to predict the age variable.

Published: July 2023

Background: Drug abuse is considered a global and growing problem worldwide. Emergency medical care is required for acute intoxication, which adds to the threat of COVID-19. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the pattern of acute toxicity in drug abuse patients admitted to National Environmental and Clinical Toxicology and Research Center (NECTR), Cairo University. Methods: This comparative study included 978 cases admitted to NECTR during 12 months before the COVID-19 pandemic (2018-2019) and 12 months during the pandemic (2020-2021). Results: The number of cases during the pandemic was lower than before; adults and men predominate in both periods. During the pandemic, cannabis, heroin, opium, and alcohol showed a mild increase, while the new synthetic drugs, tramadol, and pregabalin, showed a mild decrease. A significant increase in discharges and a decrease in intensive care unit (ICU) admissions were observed during the pandemic. Besides, more oxygen (O2) therapy was required, and more cases died on mechanical ventilation. The worst outcome was associated with old age, male gender, heroin and opium toxicity, and the highest score of poisoning severity. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic had a definite reforming effect on the pattern of intoxication by drugs of abuse in NECTR, Egypt.
The Student Movement in Colombia: 1945-1991
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Bogdanov Kirill
Published: July 2023

The author was analyzing the history of the students’ move-ment in Colombia with a purpose to identify the characteristic features of this movement in the context of the history of the left movement in that country. The Colombian leftists (the Revolutionary Socialist party later on transformed into the Communist Party) tried to establish contacts with the youth movement, however, this area of activities was not among Party’s priorities and these labor ceased soon. Consequently, the special place in the manuscript is given to the research of the students’ movement since 1948, a date when the student-ship managed to enforce its influence and positions in political life of Colombia. The traditions of the students’ movement and its international links were also in the focus of the research. The author comes to the conclusion about correlation between the growing of popularity of leftist ideas in the country with the attitudes of the students’ movement.
Revolutionary enthusiasm in Cuba, relations with the USSR and the ideological legacy of Che Guevara: an interview with Carlos Tablada
Authors:   Institute of the World History of the Russian Academy of Science., Arabadzhyan Alexandra
Published: July 2023

The paper represents a conversation with Carlos Tablada, a leading contemporary Cuban economist, philosopher and so-ciologist. The interview reveals the peculiarities of the Cuban revolution at different stages. Tablada provides details of the history of the Popular Socialist Party of Cuba. He reflects about how he began to study the ideological heritage of Che Guevara, highlighting nuances of his communication with the Soviet academics from the Institute of Latin America of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. Tablada interprets Ernesto Guevara's speech delivered in Algeria in 1965 in a specific way, in the context of trade relations between developing countries and countries of the Socialist Bloc. Tablada also covers his experience of work in the Cuban state enterprise EMPROVA during the implementation of the System of direc-tion and planning of the economy proposed by Humberto Pe-rez. Tablada expresses his own critical assessment of the economic khozraschet that Cuba adopted from the USSR after joining the CMEA (1972) and holding the First Congress of the Communist Party of Cuba (1975). He comments on the grave consequences of the aggressive policy of the United States towards revolutionary Cuba. Tablada also reveals the peculiarities of trade relations between Cuba and the USSR and the actualization of Che Guevara's ideological legacy dur-ing the period of "rectification". At that time, Cuba faced a crisis due to changes in the terms of trade with the COME-CON countries and tried to resist a number of negative socio-economic consequences of the introduction of khozraschet. Tablada comments on the specifics of Cuba's plight after the collapse of the Socialist Bloc. The footnotes to the interview provide comments on Tablada's statements, especially on those that are controversial.
Russia’s WTO membership: Assessing the impact on foreign trade
Authors: Kalinin A. M.
Published: July 2023

The  paper   assesses  some  of  the consequences of  Russia’s   accession  to the World Trade Organization (WTO). Whereas much discussion  about its costs and  benefits  happened during the WTO negotiations  and  in  the first years after the  accession, there  was little said  on the  real  consequences afterwards. The aim of the  research  is to assess the  degree  of fulfillment of the  accession expectations after a decade. The research  method is the  analysis  of panel  data on the world  trade for 2000-2019  (an econometric model based on the  gravity model of foreign  trade). It has been  established that the  WTO accession  ultimately benefited for  Russian  foreign  trade. However, this  effect has  been  offset by increased political tensions since 2014. The objections to the  WTO also turned out to be predominantly justified. The most positive economic  consequences of the  WTO exist for exporters of low value added  goods. The criticism of the  WTO participation by machine  builders is understandable: although they  are among the  beneficiaries, the  effects on exports and  imports are comparable.
Man in a changing world: How to coordinate individual plans?
Authors: Shastitko A. E. , Fedorov S. I.
Published: July 2023

In 2022 political issues made significant adjustments to individual economic plans of hundreds of millions of people around the  world. Against this background, the idea  of  industrial regulation is gaining popularity again  as  a  means  to overcome the  shocks that have arisen. However, how effective is such a mechanism for coordinating efforts to adapt to changes? In our article, we propose  to look at the  problem through the  analysis  of two models  of man:  the  entrepreneur in Austrian economics  and  the  limited rational person  in the  transaction costs economics. Based  on the  results of the  analysis  we reconstruct the  process  of adapting the  market  (or industry) to the shock  using  a formalized model  of the  game  theory. The model  allows  us to demonstrate two key informational problems of adaptation to changes:  individuals’ limited rationality and  their heterogeneity in terms of “entrepreneurial alertness”. For  industrial policy, this means  the  expediency of comparing the  regulatory intervention’s benefits and costs during the  shock period, taking into account the  entrepreneurs’ advantage over the  regulator in the  collection and  use of dispersed knowledge.
Methodology of the narrative analysis in economics: The case of the entrepreneurial networks
Authors: Tambovtsev V. L. , Buzulukova E. V. , Valitova L. A. , Deng J. , Sitkevich D. A. , Turabaeva A. M.
Published: July 2023

The  purpose  of  the  article is to provide   theoretical and  empirical evidence  that narrative analysis  in economics  is not an integral part of qualitative research  and  is quite compatible with  the  methodology of quantitative research. The development of methods for collecting and  processing data is one of the significant directions in the development of both  empirical and theoretical research  in economics. Of  particular importance to this  direction is the  consistent expansion of the  consideration of social  factors in the  study of decision-making  processes, both  at the micro  and  macro  levels. Narrative economics, which  has  emerged  and  developed in  the  last decade, is an  integral part of this  trend. The article proposes  and  substantiates a methodology for empirical analysis  of narratives considered as sources  of quantitative information used in decision  making. This  distinguishes it from  the  methods of narrative analysis used in qualitative research  in the  social  sciences, although they  are not always distinguished in the literature. The technique combines  the search  for the frequency  of occurrence of various  phrases  on the Internet with  interview analysis, which  significantly reduces  the  time and  effort required to search  and  analyze the necessary  information about social  factors. The  effectiveness of the  proposed  methodology is tested on the  example  of the  analysis  of narratives that characterize personal entrepreneurial networks, no statistical information about which  is collected, although the  networks  themselves play  an important role in the  formation of new small  businesses. The presented results of the  analysis show that the  technique makes it possible  to obtain useful  quantitative data on such objects of economic  research.

Utilization of delivery assistance by professional staff (midwives) in the community is very low compared to the expected indicators. The behavior of pregnant women in planning for the selection of delivery assistance is influenced by various factors. This study aims to determine the factors associated with the selection of birth attendants. The type of research used is quantitative with a cross-sectional research design. The number of samples taken was 42 people with the Consecutive Sampling technique. The instrument used is a questionnaire. The data obtained was then analyzed with the Chi Square test. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between education and the selection of birth attendants (p value = 0.005). In addition, there is a significant relationship between parity and age and the selection of birth attendants (p value = 0.033 and p value = 0.025). Therefore, it is hoped that health workers can provide counseling related to the selection of birth attendants so that they can improve the health status of mothers and babies.

Postpartum haemorrhage is still the leading cause of maternal death in the world. One of the postpartum blood loss source comes from blood vessels that open at placental implantation site at the third phase of birth. This study aims to determine the relationship between placental diameter and postpartum blood loss volume. Cross sectional study was conducted on 120 mothers whose giving birth at Rizky Anugerah Clinic and 24-Hour Maternity Hospital from April to October 2020. The placental diameter was measured from the tip of left to right side in the center of placenta using measuring tape. Meanwhile, the volume of blood loss was measured immediately after delivery using gravimetric method. The result showed that placental diameter of respondents in this study was 17 – 22 cm and 19,72 cm in average. Meanwhile the volume of postpartum blood loss was 51 – 587 ml and 212,02 ml in average. Based on statistical test, it is known that the Sig.(2-tailed) was 0,007 and the pearson correlation was 0,243. So that, we can conclude there was a correlation between the placental diameter and the volume of postpartum blood loss whereas the larger placental diameter the greater postpartum blood loss volume. Examination of placenta after it delivered includes checking its completeness, weighing its weight and measuring its diameter and thickness can not be considered as meaningless routine examination. Although variables in this study shown a low correlation, placental diameter still provide information for midwives to anticipate the occurance of postpartum haemorrhage without ignoring other factors.

Research problem. To expand international dialogue, increase competitiveness in the Russian and foreign educational markets, to deepen educational cooperation and increase the share of students from China, a comprehensive sociological study was conducted. The aim of the study is to identify the motives of Chinese students to study at Russian universities in the conditions of the formation of the post-global education space. Materials and methods of research. In March-May 2022, we conducted a sociological study in the universities of Yekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk, and Moscow (Russian Federation). The study used a quantitative and qualitative strategy. The quantitative study involved 500 Chinese students studying at Russian universities (N=500). The study was supplemented by in-depth interviews (N=30) with heads of international services and university departments. Results. In the course of the study, the main key motives for the choice of Russian universities by Chinese students were found. Among them, pragmatic motives that consist of a group (the cost of education; the territorial convenience of the location of the university; the convenience of accommodation in hostels; the availability of airports in the host city); socio-psychological motives (national relations, the presence of acquaintances of students from the PRC studying at the chosen university, the availability of adaptation programs for Chinese students at the university, the convenience of the university infrastructure), procedural (to make a career progress after graduation; the opportunity to continue education after graduation from the Russian university; the prestige of the university in world rankings) were fixed. Conclusions. The leading factors influencing the motives of Chinese students' choice of Russian universities are as follows: the success of adaptation programs at the university, the compliance of the educational program with the expectations of students, the presence of the Confucius Institute, which supports the relationship with Chinese students and teachers. Demotivating factors were identified in the course of the study. They are: difficulty in mastering the Russian language (76%), difficulty in communication with teaching staff (54%), difficulties in communicating with Russian students (46%).

Introduction. Every year the world is witnessing changes in the information environment as well as the rapid growth of information volumes, which has a strong influence on people’s consciousness and behaviour. The formation of media competence is becoming relevant in these conditions; this issue is actively researched in pedagogical science worldwide. Therefore, media competence is viewed as an integral part of modern man’s education. When addressing the conditions of its formation at a pedagogical university, it is important to consider the opinion of students – future teachers. The aim of this article is to analyse students’ opinions in the sphere of media competence and to outline the conditions of its formation within the framework of a pedagogical university. Methods. The empirical study involved 112 respondents – students of the Institute of Historical, Legal and Socio-Humanitarian Education under Bashkir State Pedagogical University named after M. Akmulla (Ufa, Russian Federation). The main research methods comprised: analysis of pedagogical, psychological and methodological literature, Internet resources; study of pedagogical experience; observation (practice of creating conditions for forming media competence); interpretation of obtained results (survey of students aged 17 to 22 – the most active age group that is supposed to possess media competence). Results. The study revealed the opinions of students – future teachers regarding the process of media competence formation in the conditions of higher educational institution, as well as to identify the level of their knowledge in terms of several components: information, interpretation (evaluation), security, knowledge. The obtained results substantiated the below conditions that are important to create within the period of training at a pedagogical university: organisational-pedagogical; psychological-pedagogical; pedagogical; material and technical; strategic. Conclusion. Pedagogical university students have certain knowledge in the sphere of media, albeit segmentary. In order to structure this knowledge, it is necessary to add a number of skills – those connected with the use of social media, mobile and distance learning, cloud technology – to the list of skills to be developed in pedagogical education. The use of media and information technologies in evaluating educational outcomes of pedagogical university students (e.g., demonstration examination) is specifically important in the appraisal system.
