The article deals with studying the American experience of educator professional development. To carry out this research the following methods have been applied: content analysis, systematization and theoretical generalization of scientific literature, standards, technical assistance documents and samples of the individual professional development plan (IPDP) for educators. Having conducted the research, the following results and conclusions have been drawn. The primary goal for professional learning is to help educators develop and apply the knowledge and skills necessary to help students to learn foreign languages more effectively and efficiently. Therefore, the planning and designing of professional learning include defining the SMART goals of professional learning drawn from analysis of student and educator learning needs, which are determined by examining data on student learning outcomes. To achieve these goals those who are responsible for professional learning should select the appropriate job-embedded and external forms of professional learning, which allow the educators to satisfy student learning needs, bridge the knowing-doing gap and integrating new ideas and skills into practice. An IPDP is a tool serving as a guide for the professional learning. IPDP enables educators to chart their goals and to plan learning activities that improve their competencies in order to enhance their students’ performance. Completing the IPDP includes setting the goals based on student learning needs, deciding on the professional methods/strategies, tapping possible resources, setting the time-frame, identifying success indicators. After having been accomplished, the IPDP is evaluated by the person in charge. Evaluation of professional learning provides the opportunity to monitor the process of embedding the new learning into practices by observing and assessing changes in educator practice and increases in student learning.

This article is about studying the features of using youth slang in the process of studying English at the university. The analysis of the usage of slang expressions among the younger generation is identified. It is found that the definition of slang is beginning to attract the attention of modern philologists. There are now quite a number of slang definitions that are often contradictory. It is investigated that Ukrainian slang has a huge amount of English borrowing. This article is about analyzing the concept of youth slang in modern English. The relevance of our research is that youth slang is in constant development. It has also been determined that modern slang in the English language, being an integral part of the language, is one of the most relevant and controversial problems of modern lexicology. Thus, the reasons for the increase in the slang share in the modern teenager's speech include social factors; the importance of a language for communication with peers; the influence of the media (reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV shows), Internet resources. The main characteristic of youth slang is the constant emotionality, expressiveness, appreciation, and imagery of youth speech. This contributes to the overall dynamics of the Ukrainian literary language. The results of the investigation prove the assumption of the wide use of Anglicism; in most cases, a youth slang represents English borrowing or phonetic associations; it is necessary to pay attention to the attraction of foreign words especially when the process is so fast. This study helps to solve the problem of determination, the nature, and the main features of the phenomenon under study.

Published: October 2021

The article considers the problems of ecological training of future teachers of natural sciences in higher education institutions. In order to study the educational environment effectiveness on the process of formation of ecological competency of future teachers of natural sciences, an analysis of educational professional programs for their filling ecological content and conducted teachers and students survey. The main criterion of analysis was the presence of ecological disciplines (subjects of theoretical and applied ecology, methodology of ecological education and upbringing) and disciplines that determine the theoretical foundations of ecological culture and students' worldview of in the educational content. Based on the study results, promising guidelines for improving the effectiveness of students' ecological training of the first and second levels of higher education in the specialty “Secondary Education” of natural profile has been defined. In most universities that train teachers of natural sciences, the environmental component needs to be strengthened in the content of educational professional programs. Most ecological disciplines are optional, so we suggest including at least 50 % of the environmental component in the mandatory block. Due to the intersectional nature of ecology as a science, it is possible to further involve the potential of educational content in the formation of students' ecological competency. Such approaches should be used when designing training and internship programs, in which students will have the opportunity to gain experience in environmentally sound behavior and activities. Important in the students' ecological training is their participation in the work of environmental NGOs, environmental movements, volunteering, which allows to implement the acquired knowledge in practice and contributes to the formation of ecological culture and worldview of future teachers of natural sciences.

The most prominent of them is the 1964 concert that commemorated the unveiling ceremony of Taras Shevchenko’s monument (Washington).

The Topic of the Soviet-­Ukrainian War (1917–1921) in Ukrainian Cinematography of the 1920s

Most of the films about the revolution and the Soviet­Ukrainian war (1917–1921), made by AUPhCA in 1928–1930, proved to be uninteresting and did not gain big success among the audience. These films were made mostly by the methods of propaganda, posters, without much depth into the essence of the phenomenon, the script was built on a certain pattern — a parallel demonstration of good, brave guerrillas and scornful whites, i.e. on the one hand stupid bourgeois, mocking and torturing their class enemies, on the other hand — smart, heroic, friendly representatives of working class. According to some contemporaries, films about the events of the Soviet­Ukrainian war required other forms, a different embodiment. From naked propaganda, from stencil scheme to a more in­depth identification of the moments of class struggle, from a simplified external reflection of events, to a more specific individualization of the participants of the events. However, these films played an important role in the development of adventure cinema.
