The present study combines a theoretical analysis of youth protest as a special social phenomenon and the results of an empirical study. Based on the empirical study conducted by the authors in the Moscow State University of Technology and Management (First Cossack University), an analysis of the protest activity of youth (students) in the 2010s is conducted. The authors rely on a set of methodological approaches and methods of analysis: conceptual, behaviorist, and socio-cultural approaches, as well as the network approach aimed at understanding the basic constructs of the digital age and digital communications as a new social reality. The authors develop the method of discourse analysis to demonstrate the protest activism being contingent on the rapidly changing conditions. The modern definition of protest is analyzed. The term protestivity is introduced and its heuristic value is substantiated. The distinction between civic activism and protestivity is drawn. The authors explore the preconditions for the formation of protest: youth lumpenization, deprivation (inconsistency between the increased social expectations of young people and the real possibilities for their realization). The manifestations of youth protestivity in the modern conditions increasingly acquiring the structure of network interaction are studied. It is concluded that the repertoire of youth protestivity in a digital society is modifying. The article demonstrates that positive (constructive) forms of protest activity contribute to the formation of a conventional form of interaction between youth and authorities. Involvement in positive forms of activism stops the natural potential of youth protest. The future largely depends on what status the authorities assign to youth.

The article presents the results of an empirical study of project activity as a means of organizing adolescents’ learning process. The study is particularly relevant due to the acute need in the forms of learning activity aimed at adolescents’ development and socialization, as well as in efficient practices of training teachers, who will be involved in organizing project activity in the classroom. The research was conducted on the example of technical modelling, which is regarded as a particular type of project activity, aimed at creating technical objects with given characteristics and properties. The collected data testifies that technical modelling could become an efficient means of teaching and developing adolescents and could contribute to motivating adolescents to choose technical jobs and professions in the future. The results of the study are incorporated in a series of lectures on adolescence in the framework of the Master’s program “Cultural-historical psychology and activity approach in education” run in Moscow State University of Psychology & Education.

In the article Russian nouns formed with -ism suffix, often containing borrowed roots from other Indo-European languages, are analyzed from the perspective of their syntactic function as nominalization. As nominalization regarded in linguistics as a type of pure syntactic transformation (or “syntactic derivation” according to the definition of Jerzy Kuryłowicz), the -ost’ suffix as a word-formational formant for syntactic derivation is well acknowledged and described. As a contrast, the studied group of nouns with -ism suffix is seldom associated with or regarded as deadjectival nominals in previous works and dictionaries. Our analysis based on explanatory and morpheme dictionaries has shown, the motivational correlation between nouns with -ism suffix and adjectives are described in multiple ways, often contrasted one another. For instance, -isms are described in the morpheme dictionary (Lopantin, Ulukhanov 2016) as deadjectival nouns, while in the Shvedova dictionary as non-derivatives, motivating adjectives of quality. In addition, the seme ‘quality’ is also described variously in the two dictionaries – directly or using synonyms with different formants. The analysis of word-usages of -isms was conducted with the corpus “Russian Newspapers of the End of the XX Century”, developed by the Laboratory for General and Computational Lexicology and Lexicography (Lomonosov Moscow State University). The analysis has shown that the diagnostic context automatically differentiate the usage of -isms as nominalizations are the dependent names of the “feature carrier”, which as a result of nominalization has been moved from the position of subject to a dependent attribute.

Recently two new departments, the School of Broadcast Journalism and the Department of Political Science, were created at Moscow State University while leaving the two traditional departments that engendered them intact. The result has been a contestation over academic freedom, standards, and the very definition of both disciplines at Russia’s premier university. The new departments are both closely associated with United Russia, the dominant political party in Russian politics and the political movement designed to promote the priorities and policies of Prime Minister and former President Vladimir Putin. This paper examines the self-definition of each of the four departments by means of open-ended, semi-structured interviews with faculty and content-analytic examination of curricular materials, including syllabi and assigned readings. We conclude that the newer departments are somewhat more attuned to certain aspects of the international standards of both disciplines, but demonstrate little adherence to key ethical and pedagogical norms, leaving them more susceptible to political influence.

The article reveals the preparation for professional innovative activities at different levels (public, socio-pedagogical, theoreticalmethodological, and methodological-technological). The main types of innovation – creation, development, testing, implementation – are characterized. The phenomenon is briefly analyzed. Despite the accumulated experience and existing interest in the problem, there are few studies on the preparation for innovative activity of students of technical and cultural universities. In the article, a definition of the term “professional innovation” is proposed. The essence of readiness for innovation is presented. The choice of innovative, energyresource, integrative approaches to preparing students for innovative activity is substantiated. The functions of the approaches are presented. These functions are realized through a system of certain principles. In the article, the methods of analysis, questionnaire, testing, ranking were used to identify students’ and teachers’ values of innovative activity, to determine objective and subjective factors affecting professional innovative activity, and methods and means students and teachers find effective in developing creative abilities. The respondents emphasize professional patriotism, professional health (capacity for work), and creativity as the most significant values of innovative activity. The article presents the most effective forms, methods, and tools that contribute to readiness for innovation. Particular attention is paid to the innovative projects in mixed groups of the South Ural State University. The implementation of sociocultural projects at Chelyabinsk State Institute of Culture is described. Examples from practical experience are given. It is noted that the training of students in various types of their independent activities is based on their personal experience of independent activities. The necessity of pedagogical assistance is the most appropriate way of pedagogical support, creating conditions for students for independent education. It develops the readiness for innovative activity and the ability to manage educational activities. The key results of the study are: the specified content of key concepts; the determined structural elements of readiness for innovation, skills (forecast, planning, analysis, interpretation, reflection), values of innovation (professional patriotism, performance, health, creativity, etc.); the revealed methodological approaches to preparing students for professional innovative activity; the identified principles and conditions for the implementation and functioning of the phenomenon.

Currently, the intensive development of engineering ceramic and effort to replace sintered carbides as cutting materials are in progress. With the development of the sintering technology it is now possible to produce compact ceramic cutting samples with very good mechanical properties. The advantage of these materials is their easy accessibility and low purchase price. In this work, the influence of the finishing machine technology on the values of surface residual stresses of cutting ceramic samples Al2O3+TiC were studying. The samples were supplied by Moscow State University of Technology STANKIN. Measurements made in the X-ray diffraction laboratory at the Department of solid state engineering were performed for both the phases. The influence of the parameters of machining to residual stresses was studied and the resulting values were compared with each other.

The article describes the experience of the Moscow State University of Psychology and Education in the development and implementation of an innovative model for the professional training of specialists working in guardianship and custody bodies of minors in the conditions of specialized master's degree programme within the framework of psychological and pedagogical course. It is shown that this training course meets the requirements for the knowledge and abilities of specialists in performing labor functions, fixed in the professional standard of a specialist of guardianship and custody bodies (hereinafter referred to as PLO) [14]. The purpose of the training is to prepare a highly qualified specialist - the leader of change - ready to make effective and reasonable decisions, able to adapt the functioning of the PLO to dynamically changing environment. The article provides an overview of modern research in the development of a master's system in the Russian Federation. The methodological approaches to the development of the model are substantiated: “activity-based”, “competency-based” and “personality-oriented”, which allow combining a practice-oriented and research paradigms. It is shown how, in the context of the delivery of the educational program, masters develop these competencies. The structure and content of the master's program are described.
