Authors: Jaramillo María Guadalupe Venteño , Valencia Jorge 
Published: July 2022

The objective of this paper is to show a general description of the first actions that librarians carried out in Mexico in the face of the Covid 19 pandemic, both to respond to the user in their demands for information, and to carry out their professional and leisure activities. The actions undertaken by librarians of academic libraries in the context of the pandemic are presented. Libraries in Mexico are one of the main sources of access to documentary information. In general, all types of libraries had to suspend their services during the pandemic and initiate protocols to restart functions. In this paper we have specifically addressed the contingency measures implemented in university libraries. Academic libraries had to adapt quickly to continue offering documentary and information services and with this, continue to carry out their functions in the development of professional training activities, technological developments, research, administration, and extension of culture. Both university libraries and users (students, professors, researchers, and administrative staff) had to adapt to the contingency since in most cases protocols were established both for prevention to avoid contagion and for user care.
This document is the result of the research carried out based on the information answered by 40 libraries studied, to whom an instrument was applied. The literature on current topics was consulted in various databases and information from the websites of the libraries themselves. Information was also collected from approximately 20 academic events organized by library associations and other information professionals, such as the AMBAC (Civil Association of Librarians), the Library College of Mexico and the IFLA (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions).

Authors: Nazarenko Tetiana , Braslavska Oksana , Ozerova Liudmyla 
Published: July 2022

The article examines current issues that arise in the teaching of geography. The integrative nature of the subject of geography requires the use of a variable factor to strengthen the basic geographical courses in the school, so there is a need for a variety of elective courses. The practice of introducing integrative elective courses in school geographical education has been studied.Elective courses play an important role in the school system. These are required subjects of the student’s choice that support the chosen profile. Unlike typical courses, elective courses are compulsory. The purpose of studying elective courses is to focus students on individualization of learning and socialization; to prepare for a conscious and responsible choice of future professional activities.In the process of content selection, it is necessary to find out: what laws, theories, ideas, principles, concepts, skills, and types of student activities are offered for mastering, how the study material will contribute to the internal specialization of education and the formation of specialized skills; for which professions, fields of activity the selected content is required, which students must know and be able to do before studying the elective course.Researchers have proved the effectiveness of the implementation of integrated geographical courses, the need to develop comprehensive curricula in natural subjects on the basis of a single educational field of state standard, and the importance of forming holistic (integrated) knowledge, and a scientific worldview. However, the lack of specialists and general teaching methods makes it difficult to implement an integrative approach in elective courses.

ALGORITHMS OF IMPROVING OF THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL POTENTIAL REALIZATION BY UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR AS A BEARER OF BRAND
Authors: Yunyk Ivan 
Published: July 2022

The article considers the professional potential of a university professor, which provides not only the formation of a personal brand but also its successful promotion in the market of educational and scientific services. Therefore, the professional potential is a fundamental component of the structure of a university professor’s personal brand. The algorithmic interconnection of the concepts of “personal potential”, “personal resources” and “human capital” is clarified. It is emphasized that the professor’s awareness of the professional potential necessary and sufficient to form a personal brand is determined primarily by the motivation of the specialist to identify their own intellectual, leadership, creative, communicative and other resources and reserves. The author specifies that in the structure of the university professor’s professional potential, the priority is constructs that are both in demand by the profession and relevant to the requests of the target audience. The real and potential determinants of slowing down the process of realization of the university professor’s professional potential are listed. It is proved that the intensification of readiness for effective realization of professional potential by university professor requires obligatory consideration of contextual and situational peculiarities of personal brand positioning and synergistic possibilities of co-branding with other university specialists as brand carriers or even university brand. Methods of counteracting the real and potential determinants of slowing down the process of university professor’s professional potential realization are highlighted. They are: the inability of a specialist to objectively assess the scope and probable prospects for the realization of their own potential; barriers in brand communication; the impact of previous failure stressors; the dominance of fear of image and/or reputational losses over the subjectively predicted attractiveness of the consequences of the professional potential realization; achieving a local maximum in professional self-realization, etc.

Authors: Avramenko Oleg 
Published: July 2022

The article reflects the state of the content of technological education in relation to directions of development, increasing the efficiency and safety of the functioning of technogenic society. It is shown that the training of the younger generation is carried out by various educational branches consisting of academic disciplines. The scope and content of these fields of knowledge and the structure of connections between them determine the level of education at this stage of society’s development. The higher the level of a person’s education, the more fully the surrounding world is reflected in his consciousness, the more deeply he is aware of his place in it, the greater the degree of his responsibility for maintaining harmony in this world, the easier is the integration of a person in society.It is shown that rapid technological development provides humanity with qualitatively new living conditions, increases human capabilities, and accelerates the processes of learning about the surrounding world. On the other hand, the development of technologies often has a detrimental effect on the biosphere and leads to irreversible consequences, forcing us to look for ways of safe interaction between the biosphere and the technosphere.An analysis of the concept of “technology” is presented. It was found that there are dozens of definitions of this concept, but the question of establishing the most significant one, which would correspond to this multi-meaning entity, remains open. It was determined that technology and engineering are not aimed at obtaining knowledge for its own sake, but involve their development and use for practical purposes, they are, first of all, practice based on knowledge.Furthermore, it is proven that the content of this educational field is intended to reflect the existing level of technical and technological culture of society, to show development trends and opportunities for self-determination and self-realization of the individual in the modern technological world.

Published: July 2022

Nowadays the training of future teachers working in the conditions of inclusive education belongs to the important components of the educational process at universities. However, a great number of teachers graduated from universities when the issue of inclusive studying was not paid proper attention, teachers’ training was aimed at the formation of professional competence to teach and educate children with common development. Along with the changes connected with an outside technological support of the architectural availability and the creation of appropriate infrastructure, the arrangement of a working process sets a goal to develop a high level of an inclusive culture in a teachers’ and students’ staff. In this regard, a manager of a contemporary institution faces the task to direct the managerial activity toward the efficient meeting of the requirements of inclusive studying.The purpose of the research is to suggest a management model for inclusive studying at educational institutions.The introduction of the inclusive studying implies a modification of a managerial system and a change of the configuration in the directions of a school’s working process which will provide the formation of a high-level inclusive culture in teachers’ and students’ staff.The creation of consultation centers in the general secondary institutions focused on several directions is suggested in this paper.An appropriate sector will be responsible for the working process of each direction. It is suggested to single out the following sectors based on a consultative center: the sector which is responsible for studying the inclusive learning practices; the sector of psychological assistance for inclusive studying; the sector of methodological support in organizing inclusive studying.To a certain extent, the division into sectors and directions is conditional; their configuration has a flexible nature and can be modified, and restructured due to the requirements which are relevant for each institution taken separately.
