Introduction. The integrated approach, being one of the innovative approaches in teaching a foreign language for professional communication, contributes to the parallel development of both students’ foreign language communication skills and their professional competencies within a single academic course. To attain effective outcomes in the dual objective of training, it is crucial not only to meticulously choose the integrated course content, considering its subject-thematic focus, but also to devise a practical training method that mirrors the specifics of future medical specialists' professional activities. The aim of this research is to develop a method of teaching trainee doctors foreign language professional communication based on an integrated approach. Materials and methods. First year trainee doctors of the Clinical Laboratory Diagnostics specialty of Derzhavin Tambov State University (Russian Federation) were the participants of the experimental study. In the control group (N = 20), students studied the language for special purposes, and in the experimental group (N = 20) students studied using an integrated approach. Evaluation of students’ progress was based on seven criteria. The Student's statistical t-test method was used for the results process. Results. The integrated approach effectiveness was confirmed during experimental study, which reflected the mastery of the professional thesaurus by trainee doctors (t=3.19 at p≤0.05), in the development of writing (t=4.8 at p≤0.05), speaking skills (t=4.8 at p≤0.05) and solving professional cases on the studied language (t=2.17 at p≤0.05). However, the study did not confirm the integrated approach advantages in the grammatical speech skills formation of trainee doctors (t=1.45 at p>0.05), in the development of listening skills (t=1 at p>0.05) and reading skills (t=1.45 at p>0.05). The results obtained can be explained by the fact that by the beginning of experimental work, students had already developed the following language and speech skills at a high level (B1-B2). Conclusion. The novelty of the study is in the development of a method for teaching trainee doctors professional foreign language during an integrated course. The prospects for the work are to further study the potential of the integrated approach in teaching students who speak the language at level A2-B1. It is anticipated that the effectiveness of the integrated learning method will be evaluated on a group of students with a foreign language communicative competence level of A2-B1. Additionally, the methodology is of research interest as it aims to identify the speech skills of foreign language interaction, categorized by types of speech activity, in a specific professional field of communication.

Introduction. In the modern context of teaching Russian as Foreign Language, it is necessary to clearly understand the advantages and disadvantages of paremiological material in general and in the Arabic-speaking audience in particular. One of the advantages of paremiological units is their special national and cultural content, which makes them very attractive for teaching to foreign audiences. At the same time, the disadvantages include such characteristics of paremiological units as their etymology and structure, which complicate their understanding and correct use by foreign students. The problem of failed communication is incredibly acute in the 21st century. The paremiological fund of any language includes linguocultural and regional knowledge necessary for students studying a language for better communication with native speakers. The purpose of the article is to identify and highlight the beneficial aspects of using paremiological material in teaching Russian as Foreign Language at all stages of study. Materials and methods. This thesis uses a structural research method that allows to identify and analyze paremiological units from the point of view of their use in teaching Russian language. Also, the structural method allows to carry out the necessary analysis of Russian as foreign language teaching aids using paremiological material, which is necessary for this purpose. Research results. The study of modern research in the field of application of paremiological material in Russian as Foreign Language has shown that this issue remains relevant in linguistics and methods of teaching foreign languages in general and RFL in particular. An analysis of Russian proverbs from the point of view of their use as educational material in an Arabic-speaking audience has shown their enormous potential as a material for teaching, especially in the practice of increasing the linguistic and cultural competence of Arab students. Conclusion. Paremiological units are useful in creating phonetic, morphological, grammatical, and syntactic exercises. They can also be used to create regional studies exercises and creative assignments, which is extremely important when working with foreign audiences at advanced stages of education.

Introduction. Digitalization of education has opened up new opportunities for the development and application of the didactic potential of digital technologies in teaching algebra in the context of bilingualism. This determined the purpose of this work, which is to create a methodological system for teaching algebra to bilingual students and an album of animated drawings in a digital environment. Scientific and pedagogical research focuses on the problem of mathematical training of schoolchildren in the context of bilingualism. From the point of view of improving the quality of education, it is advisable to rely on visual-figurative and associative thinking developed by bilingual students. Materials and methods. The experimental study involved 50 students of the seventh grade of gymnasium No. 5 in the city of Kyzyl, Republic of Tyva (Russian Federation). The methods of comparative analysis of scientific, pedagogical and methodological sources, empirical and statistical methods (Student's t-test) are applied. Results. A methodological system for teaching algebra to bilingual students using an album of animated drawings in a digital environment has been developed. An album of animated drawings is presented, implemented in the form of an electronic training course in the electronic learning system of Tuvan State University and the results of its application in teaching algebra to bilingual students. As a result of the experiment, it was revealed that in the absence of statistically significant differences in the control and experimental groups at the time of the initial control, since tэмп = 2,00 < tкр = 2,01, during the final control, tэмп = 2,80 > tкр = 2,01 at the significance level p < 0,05. This indicates that the compared groups are significantly different and the experimental hypothesis about the effectiveness of using an album of animated drawings as an innovative means of teaching seventh grade algebra in the digital environment of bilingual students is confirmed. Conclusion. The use of an album of animated drawings as an innovative means of teaching algebra in the digital environment of bilingual students of the seventh grade of the Republic of Tyva increases the effectiveness of learning by increasing the clarity of algebraic concepts and statements, reducing the amount of non-essential calculations, as well as the use of mechanisms for rapid assessment of learning outcomes using a developed system of bilingual prompts. The proposed learning tool forms and develops an experimental research style of learning.

Relevance. Increasing of fundamentality and practice-oriented nature are two important strategies for development of pedagogical education at the present stage. Fundamentalization ensures the formation of deep basic knowledge system, defines a holistic scientific picture of the human world. Practice orientation is revealed through a prism of gaining experience in the course of various activities, the willingness of a person to productively increase and use his or her knowledge and methods of activity to solve problems arising in the reality, orientation towards continuous self-education and self-development. The aim of the article is scientific substantiation of transdisciplinarity as a strategy for bringing together the fundamentality and practice-oriented pedagogical education at the present stage. Methodology and methods. The methodological basis of transdisciplinarity is based on the ideas of a synergetic approach. The ideas of the praxiological approach are used in determining the essential characteristics of pedagogical actions success in terms of improving the quality of professional training for teachers. The professional training of future teachers to solve comprehensively set real tasks based on the formed knowledge system and acquired experience is focused on the concept of an activity-based approach. The results of the study. The results are presented by the scientific substantiation of the integration of the fundamentality and practice-oriented training for future teachers on the basis of a transdisciplinary strategy, the definition of conditions for the formation of transdisciplinary thinking among teachers, the development of practical skills and skills for solving complex problems through the prism of diverse knowledge and methods of activity: the inclusion of teachers in project, research, experimental activities, the organization of continuing education, strengthening the nonlinearity of the development in the educational system and ensuring disciplinary flexibility, reflexive understanding of the results for activities based on the consideration of praxiological knowledge to ensure the success of pedagogical actions. Conclusion. A teacher can carry out labor pedagogical actions effectively, efficiently, technologically and safely using the pedagogical education based on a transdisciplinary basis, in close interaction of deep fundamental knowledge acquired through direct practice of skills and experience, as well as using praxiological knowledge based on an understanding of the general theory of successful activity. The presented results can be used in the development of educational programmes for pedagogical bachelor’s degree and programmes of additional professional education based on the capabilities of the digital learning environment.

Introduction. Understanding the interaction of metacognitive strategies with guessing in problem-solving is a focus point in educational psychology, especially in mathematics education, especially with gender differences. These provide different nuances in understanding students' cognitive dynamics in guessing and metacognitive strategies. These interactions must be explained in depth to understand the unique phenomenon of second-guessing that sometimes arises in metacognitive activities based on students' gender. This research aims to reveal the process of metacognition and students' guessing thinking in solving mathematical problems. This research seeks to contribute to an empirical of metacognitive processes and their practical implications for educators and curriculum designers by uncovering these activities. Study participants and methods. The participants in this study were (30) 12th-grade high school students, consisting of (16) female students and (14) male students who had studied mathematics with statistical material. The primary method in this research is a case study with a qualitative descriptive approach. The indepth interview technique using the MAI protocol is based on the results of mathematical problem-solving to explore information about students' natural metacognitive processes according to what they think when working on problems. Semi-structured interviews used the Indonesian language to eliminate the influence of differences in regional language proficiency levels as much as possible. Results. The results of interviews on mathematical problem-solving tasks show a 'guessing' strategy in students' metacognitive activities. However, there is a striking difference between female and male students' use of the 'guessing' strategy when solving mathematical problems. Female students use the 'guessing' method more often than male students; even the 'guessing' method used by male students cannot solve the problem, thus changing the guessing strategy to estimation. This means that most of the students' answers used the guessing method. These findings underscore the dynamic nature of the cognitive processes used by students, revealing diverse interactions between metacognitive strategies and guessing during problem-solving efforts. Conclusion. This research shows that rather than standing in isolation, guessing has a place within metacognitive processes, with metacognitive regulation guiding and shaping the deliberate application of guessing in mathematical problem-solving contexts. This can be a factor for reconsidering the perceived dichotomy between precision-driven methodologies and intuitive guessing.

Introduction. In modern conditions, adaptation to the dynamics of tension in social reality is of particular importance. One of the adaptation systems of personality is psychological protection. The optimal functioning of the complex system of psychological protection of the individual determines the effectiveness of overcoming life difficulties, preserves the positive ideas of the individual about himself, allows him to "live" problematic situations with the preservation of mental well-being. The main function of psychological defense mechanisms is to "protect" the content of consciousness from negative, traumatic experiences, ensuring the quality of psychological security of the individual. This allows, in a situation of optimal anxiety, adequate self-esteem, an adequate level of claims, to build and support the socio-psychological adaptability of the individual to the life situation. The purpose of this article is to reveal the possibilities of using constructive mechanisms of psychological protection in working with young people in crisis situations. Materials and methods. 40 students of the Armavir State Pedagogical University (Armavir, Krasnodar Territory, Russian Federation) participated in the study of the content of the protection mechanisms used. The testing was carried out using the methodology for diagnosing the structure and strength of psychological defense (developed by L. Y. Subbotina), and the methodology for diagnosing the dominant strategy of psychological defense in communication (V.V. Boyko). The results of the study. Experimental data obtained during the study showed that in the hierarchy of the high level of protection use, the projection mechanism (22.5%), then rationalization (15%), then the denial mechanism (15%) is the most common in the experimental sample of young people. At the same time, in the response variant of 40 respondents, 18 revealed such psychological protection as aggression, 12 are characterized by peacefulness, and the remaining 10 – avoidance. And when choosing strategies to overcome difficult life situations, respondents chose by importance – orientation to the goal, process and result. Conclusion. Thus, psychological protection is a multi-valued, phenomenologically complex, systemic education that determines the nature of the manifestation of personality and behavior. Therefore, in order to work out an adequate way of responding to young people in crisis situations, it is necessary to take into account the substantial mechanism of psychological defense mechanisms. During the construction of counseling and correctional work, it is possible to use activity aimed at building an adequate strategy for overcoming difficult life situations.

Introduction. The current situation with the employment of graduates, when almost half of them do not work in their speciality, is a negative phenomenon for both the state and the citizens. One of the reasons for this situation is a gap between the graduates’ expectations and the real content of labour activity. The core of the problem is inefficient career guidance. The need to modernise the career guidance system is recognised worldwide. Forecasting of new professions for career guidance should be one of the directions of this modernisation. Specialists having new competencies will be able to ensure the systemic and planned nature of transformations in the sphere of career guidance in order to optimise it. The aim of the study is to justify the need for and predict the emergence of new professions to improve the efficiency of career guidance. Materials and methods. The study involved the materials of the European Training Foundation, the World Economic Forum; the documents of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation: letters, orders, methodological recommendations; the data of the Russian Federal State Statistics Service; scientific articles by Russian and foreign authors. The following methods were used: theoretical analysis of the career guidance development sphere; inductive inferencing; forecasting based on the study of documents and scientific literature on the problem. Results. At present, there is a problem connected with the professional training of specialists engaged in career guidance. People with education in the fields of pedagogy, psychology, sociology and social work are not able to efficiently solve the numerous tasks of modern career counselling. The solution can be achieved by the introduction of new specialisations of employees in this sphere matching the needs of modernity and development trends. It is predicted that these specialisations will be transformed into new professions in the future. For instance, such new professions for career counselling as career research foresighter (prognosticator), career guidance playwork specialist, career guidance testing specialist and developer, career guidance imagemaker, etc. will presumably appear. Conclusion. The modernisation of the career guidance system requires innovations not only in its content and technical fit-out but also in its staffing. The research results can be further used in the process of development of new qualification requirements; for substantiation of proposals on training specialists in upand-coming professions in the sphere of career guidance. They can also serve as a basis for the development of training programmes in new specialities.

Introduction. The relevance of the topic of the research is related to the need to study the value orientations of representatives of various social groups, which makes it possible to identify the features of their attitudes to themselves, to social subjects and public institutions with which they interact. The purpose of the article is to analyze the perception by Russian athletes of youth age of external factors affecting training and competitive activities. Materials and methods. The study used a questionnaire developed by the authors to assess the perception by Russian athletes of youth age of external factors affecting training and competitive activities. The survey involved 214 Russian athletes (age 15-20 years old). Results. The questionnaire developed by the authors on the Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.906) demonstrated a high degree of reliability and internal consistency. It was revealed that the most positively Russian athletes of youth age perceive the influence of a group of social environment factors on their training and competitive activities. The factors that received the highest average values according to the assessment of the respondents include “Decisions and actions of the coaches”, “Competitive conditions (“fair play”, refereeing)” and “Availability and quality of the material and technical base for sports”. A comparative analysis of the perception of external factors affecting training and competitive activities by age groups of respondents revealed a decrease in average assessment values with increasing age of athletes for a number of factors. Conclusion. The results of the study will be used to develop scientific and methodological recommendations for improving psychological and pedagogical support for the training of athletes of youth age.

Authors:   St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Chernyakevich Elena Yu.
Published: June 2024

Introduction. In the modern educational environment, attention is increasingly focused on the development of students’ personalities. The ability to self-organize, self-discipline and self-motivation becomes a necessary skill both for achieving educational goals and for successful integration into the professional environment of a future specialist. The purpose of the study is to study the influence of self-leadership, self-management and self-esteem on the level of academic procrastination of engineering students. Materials and methods. The sample is represented by 138 students of the St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, the average age was 20 years. The following methods were used: «Questionnaire to determine the level of self-leadership», adapted by Kim E-sung, «Scale for assessing academic procrastination», adapted by M.V. Zverev, questionnaire «Ability to self-government» N.M. Peysakhova, test «Determination of the level of self-esteem» S.V. Kovaleva. Results. The self-leadership and self-management skills of engineering students are at the «above average» level, there is also an average level of procrastination, and a low level of self-esteem was found. Students' academic procrastination decreases with a high level of goal-setting ability (r=-0,19; p≤0,05), introspection (r=-0,19; p≤0,05), self-control (r=-0,20; p≤0,05). Procrastination increases when using the strategies of «self-reward» (r=0,18, p≤0,05) and «visualization of one’s own success» (r=0,19, p≤0,05), as well as with high self-esteem (r=0,23; p≤0,001). Girls are more likely to procrastinate, care about the quality of work, and reward themselves after achieving results than boys. The most significant contribution to the academic procrastination of engineering students is made by goal setting (B = -0,36) and «visualization of one’s own success» (B = 0,40). Conclusion. Academic procrastination is one of the common problems in education. Self-leadership as the ability for self-management has a significant impact on procrastination, reducing it. Further research into the phenomenon of self-leadership may contribute to the development of programs for developing selfmanagement skills, which will improve learning outcomes.

Published: June 2024

Introduction. Research on understanding the visual complexity of molecules is critical to enhancing chemistry education, improving teaching methods, and creating educational resources in STEM education. One effective strategy for improving student achievement involves assessing and incorporating the complexity of learning materials into lesson planning. In chemistry education, various tools have been proposed for this purpose, such as analyzing illustrative molecules using graph theory or expert assessments by chemists. However, these tools remain under-researched, which limits a complete understanding of chemistry teaching methodology in school and university. The aim of this study was to investigate the visual perception of molecular complexity of high school and undergraduate students (ages 16 to 19 years), and to find out how it correlates with graph theory-based estimates of molecular complexity. In the experiment, learners rated the visual complexity of a set of molecules randomly selected from school textbooks. Participants and research methods. Fifty-six learners divided into two groups (for training and testing the ML model), 42 and 14, participated in the study. The groups included first-year biotechnology students from ITMO University (St. Petersburg, Russian Federation) and students from St. Petersburg high schools (grades 9-11). Participants' ages ranged from 16 to 19 years (M = 17.5; SD = 2.96). Methods: source analysis, design, pedagogical experiment, self-assessment of pupils and students, specialized ML methods such as random forest method and linear regression, graph-theoretical methods, statistical. Results of the study. The collected data showed that the visual complexity rated by students was positively correlated with the complexity score obtained using graph theory (r = [0.59-0.84]). Based on these data and an ad hoc survey of students, a machine learning (ML) model was built to produce a complexity estimate for any set of molecules. Practical significance. The resulting model is an open-source toolkit that can be used in chemistry classes to tailor individual assignments or to develop adaptive methods for testing chemistry knowledge. This model can be useful for trainees, beginning teachers and teacher trainees.

Introduction. In modern society, the social demand for self-developing teachers capable of dynamic changes is being actualized. The process of professional self-development is carried out in the digital environment of education and is accompanied by the emergence of crises, in connection with which teachers, as subjects of activity, need social and pedagogical support. The purpose of the study: theoretical, methodological and empirical substantiation of socio-pedagogical support and the development of content and technological support for professional self-development of a teacher in crisis periods in the digital environment of education. Methodology, materials and methods. The research is based on the humanistic paradigm, as well as the integration of the principles of subjective, integrative, systemic, acmeological, axiological, ecological and activity-based methodological approaches. 142 teachers from educational institutions in Krasnodar and Krasnodar Territory (Russian Federation) participated in the study. Research methods: questionnaire, correlation analysis, Student's t-test. The results of the study. The positive dynamics of the high level of teachers' desire for self-development from the stage of the adaptator (42,6%) to the stage of the master (71,4 %) has been established. Professional crises occur at all stages of one's own development, but with the greatest probability in the most ablebodied periods of pedagogical activity (international – 59,5%, master – 50%). Socio-pedagogical support for a self-developing teacher is relevant both at the stage of adaptation (80,9%) and for experienced mentors (30,4%). The content and technological support of the process of professional self-development of a teacher includes the design of technology for socio-pedagogical support, as well as the development on this basis of programs for the implementation of individual professional development trajectories. The effectiveness of social and pedagogical support amounted to more than 90% of the maximum assessment. Conclusion. As a result of the research, the necessity and features of external socio-pedagogical support for the subjective process of professional self-development of a teacher in crisis periods in the digital environment of education are substantiated. The developed content and technological support for this process is reproducible and makes it possible to increase the effectiveness of professional self-development, which is the novelty and practical significance of the study.

Introduction. Protecting the environment and proactively adapting to climate change is not just a call but has become one of humanity's most urgent tasks. Building the consciousness of environmental protection for Vietnamese high school students, who shape the country’s future, is important to protect the environment and adapt to climate change effectively. It has theoretical and practical significance, contributing to Vietnam's well-being and happy development. Research methodology. The article uses the method of synthesis – analysis of secondary documents to systematize theoretical issues and explain the problems raised in building awareness of ecological environment protection for students. The comparison and contrast method provides a multi-dimensional perspective when analyzing and evaluating about building awareness of environmental protection for students in Vietnam and other countries around the world. In addition, this method also helps the author compare and discuss with other authors about building awareness of environmental protection for students in Vietnam today. The expert interview method is used to obtain in-depth analysis from the experts' perspectives on the problem of building awareness of ecological environmental protection for students in Vietnam. Sociological survey method: This method is used to survey and collect information through questionnaires to survey the current situation of the problem of building awareness of ecological environment protection for students born in Vietnam. At the same time, the article uses a scale: To evaluate the level of perception, in the questionnaires, the topic uses a 5-level Likert scale. Data were processed using SPSS statistical software. Results. Addressing issues about building the consciousness of environment protection for contemporary Vietnamese students: Firstly, the authorities at all levels are not fully aware of the importance of educating Vietnamese students about environmental protection. Secondly, the content, programs, and teaching methods of environmental education are often dense and lengthy, failing to meet the current requirements. Thirdly, training and fostering teachers in environmental education have not met the current requirements. Fourthly, there are still many inadequacies between theory and practice in educating Vietnamese students about environmental protection today. Practical significance. Building the consciousness of environmental protection among Vietnamese high school students is new, but important and urgent. Therefore, its implementation is not a simple matter and requires close coordination between school leaders, teachers, and all students. Especially, it must be carried out synchronously, regularly, and continuously. It is necessary to promote the initiative of Vietnamese high school students to raise awareness of environmental protection and preserving the green planet.

Published: June 2024

Introduction. In the modern educational space, innovative methods and approaches are being actively introduced to improve the quality and accessibility of education. Particular attention is paid to the use of gaming technologies in the educational process to develop students' meta-subject skills, which is important for preparing for the rapidly changing conditions of our time. The purpose of the study is to study the effectiveness of using pedagogical games during extracurricular time for the formation of meta-subject skills in students studying in various pedagogical profiles. Materials and methods. A total of 145 students of a pedagogical university took part in the study, of which 66 students were included in the focus group. All students were examined using certain psychodiagnostic techniques aimed at identifying parameters for the development of creative and critical thinking, as well as communication and organizational abilities. Over the course of 2 months, students selected for the focus group participated in a formative experiment, within the framework of which 7 pedagogical games were developed and conducted, aimed at developing certain meta-subject skills among the experiment participants – communication and creative abilities, willingness to cooperate and critical thinking. The entire series of 7 games was developed by specialists from the A. Dinaev Pedagogical Workshop, operating at the Chechen State Pedagogical University. Results. Based on the results of the study, empirical data was obtained indicating the effectiveness of pedagogical games in the development of certain meta-subject skills in students, such as creativity and some communication skills. The results of the study indicate that, as a result of the formative experiment, students who took part in specially organized game-format events demonstrated significantly higher rates in the development of creative abilities (t=2.879; p=0.005) and certain communication skills (t=2.058; p =0.041), which indicates the effectiveness of using pedagogical game technologies for the purpose of developing meta-subject skills in students. Conclusion. Pedagogical games are an effective tool in the educational process for the development of students' meta-subject skills. Their use not only helps to increase motivation and interest in the educational process, but also develops in students important competencies necessary for successful adaptation to modern challenges. The results of the study can be used for the further development of pedagogical methods and the introduction of gaming technologies into the educational process.

Published: June 2024

Introduction. Global educational trends (pedagogy using artificial intelligence, personalization, lifelong learning, pedagogy of care and relationships, etc.) and the specifics of their influence and spread in the Russian context contribute to the introduction of innovations in the educational process at all levels. Among the significant innovations is a change in the positions of the teacher and the student, the characteristics of their interaction and educational relations: the teacher in the role of a supportive and guiding mentor, a mentor for the “self-managing” student. At the level of higher education, student coursework can be identified as a pedagogical means that promotes the development of the skills of “self-managing” teachers. Choosing a topic for course work is an integral part of the educational process, in which a large share of responsibility lies with the student. The purpose of this article is to analyze the retrospective reflection of the subjective quality of choice of term paper topic selection in humanities. Research methods. 80 third-year students of the Faculty of Linguistics and Translation and the Institute of Education and Practical Psychology of Chelyabinsk State University took part in the empirical study. As diagnostic tools for studying retrospective reflection of the process of choosing a topic for a course work, students used: questionnaire “Subjective quality of choice” D.A. Leontyev, Method for analyzing the argumentation of choice D.A. To statistically verify the results obtained, the Mann-Whitney U test was used. Results of the study. A qualitative analysis of students' choice of coursework topic reveals irrelevant differences between two groups of humanities students. According to the results of the study, it is important to note the following positive manifestations of the majority of students of both specialties (70-95%) in choosing a topic, characterizing them as “self-managing” students: activity, independence, responsibility, taking on a certain degree of risk, a meaningful attitude towards the situation of choice. However, at the same time, students need psychological and pedagogical support from their supervisor, which, in our opinion, allows them to reduce the identified anxiety (40% of educational psychologists and 60% of linguists) and the feeling of pressure (65% of educational psychologists and 75% of linguists) in the process of selecting and actually writing the course work, subject to the necessary requirements. The results obtained allow university teachers to build effective subject-subject interaction based on cooperation and taking into account the “self-governing” position of students. Conclusion. Subjective assessment of the quality of choice allows faculties and departments to moderate their work on the preparatory activities for writing term papers.

Kompabilitas antara FMA menjadi penting untuk menentukan apakah pupuk hayati FMA yang dihasilkan dapat digunakan secara efisien. Tujuan penelitian untuk mempelajari dan mendapatkan FMA spesifik lokasi dari dua ekosistem yang berbeda tehadap pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman kembang kol dengan pemupukan yang efisien. Penelitian dilakukan di Kota Pontianak Kalimantan Barat, dari bulan Juni sampai November 2023. Metode penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap faktorial. Faktor perlakuan pertama ekosistem sumber propagul FMA (tanpa FMA; FMA asal ekosistem gambut; dan FMA asal ekosistem lahan kering). Faktor kedua taraf pemupukan NPK (100%; 75%; 50%; dan 25% dosis rekomendasi). Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa pengaplikasian FMA asal ekosistem gambut maupun lahan kering sebagai pupuk hayati mampu medukung efisiensi pemupukan NPK dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan hasil tanaman kembang kol hingga pada taraf pemupukan 50% dari dosis rekomendasi.

Based on that context, this research focused on the performance management of academic librarians in improving college library services. The research broadens its scope to examine the performance of librarians in higher education in different countries by comparing librarian practices, methodologies, and challenges in various global contexts. This research was a qualitative study in the form of library research. Data was collected by finding sources and reconstructing them from various sources such as books, journals, and previous studies. The results of this study indicated a lack of librarian performance evaluation and a lack of librarians’ role as information leaders. Furthermore, the use of technology to assist services is still quite restricted, as is communication with users, and the role in supporting academic goals.
