First Year College Students

The textbook deals with the issues of education of the personality of College students and school students on the basis of educational and cognitive activity, offers ways to solve the problem of mastering the basic skills of students in such types of educational and cognitive activities as observation, experiment, work with the book and systematization of knowledge. Also some features of creative educational and research activity are revealed. The solution to the problem of mastering educational and cognitive activity, according to the authors of the manual, can be carried out on the basis of algorithms of its main types and provide the formation of generalized skills. Students are offered specific recommendations for self-mastery of these skills. All recommendations and tips are universal and do not depend on the direction and profile of education, the studied subject, the characteristics of the tasks performed. The practical examples given in the manual only help to understand the proposed material. The book is intended for first-year College students, high school students who wish to study independently, and for their teachers and lecturers.

This article describes a local study that seeks to illuminate first-year college students’ prior experiences with research and information literacy (IL) during high school. A small, suburban university surveyed and conducted interviews with librarians at the university’s feeder schools. The high school librarians rated students’ levels of proficiency in IL skills and described their school’s IL programs. Overall, librarians rated students’ IL levels as less than proficient and described several challenges to helping students improve these competencies, including teacher resistance, assignment design, and students’ habits around information. Opportunities exist for academic and school librarians to collaborate to improve IL instruction as well as to emphasize IL in teacher education programs.

Level Of Motivation

of the nature of its origin and development, its structure, types and levels. The theoretical approaches, main characteristics and peculiarities of formation of motivation in senior pupils are determined. The role of information and communication technologies in raising the level of motivation in high school students in mathematics lessons is considered. During the study, we used the following basic methods: — theoretical: analysis of philosophical, psychological, and pedagogical literature with the aim of studying, generalization and systematization of scientific materials on the research problem; the selection of theoretical substantiation of the content, forms, methods, means of forming the motivation of senior pupils in the process of application of ICT; — empirical: observation, testing, questioning, studying and generalization of modern pedagogical experience in order to substantiate the effectiveness of tested content, forms, methods and means of forming motivation of senior pupils in the process of ICT application. The methodical recommendations developed and tested in the process of experimental work demonstrate the following possibilities of the use of ICT as a means of development of students’ motivation: formation of cognitive motivation, excitation of interest in the study of an object; development of visual thinking; formation of the ability to create, apply and transform patterns and schemes for solving educational and cognitive tasks; organization of independent search cognitive and research activity of students, their activity on independent use of ICT for the search and learning of educational information; implementation of differentiated control, self-control and correction of mathematical knowledge and skills of students. As a result of an experimental study with a sufficient degree of probability, confirmed by a statistical evaluation of the results, it is found that the implementation of the identified in the study of organizational and pedagogical conditions and methods of using ICT as a means of activating cognitive activity of students contributes to a significant increase in the level of motivation students in the study of mathematics.

Transition Shock

Freshmen students often experience transition shock as their environment change from high school to college. They are also under the impression that success in college depends solely on their intellect and usually do not consider emotional intelligence a factor into the success of their academic endeavors. The purpose of this study was to investigate emotional intelligence and its relationship to stress and transition shock amongst first year college students. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed. One hundred nineteen respondents were chosen using purposive sampling technique. Frequency, percentage distribution, weighted mean, standard deviation, and Pearson r correlation coefficient test were used to analyze and treat the collected data. Respondents showed a high emotional intelligence having an overall mean of 2.73 (SD = 0.35). The extent of the respondents’ stress was also high with an overall mean of 2.61 (SD = 0.59). As for the extent of transition shock felt by the respondents, the overall mean found is at 2.55 (SD = 0.52) which is also interpreted as high. A moderate negative significant relationship between emotional intelligence and stress (r = -0.476), as well as the relationship between emotional intelligence and transition shock (r = -0.417) among the freshmen. It is recommended that nursing students and educators become aware of emotional intelligence as a factor that contributes to the success of the students’ transition from high school to college. Also, it is emphasized to further develop the emotional intelligence of the students to manage their stress and transition shock to aid in the success of the students’ academic endeavors.

Indirect proofs become increasingly important as a student progresses in the study of mathematics. Yet textbooks for high school or first-year college students give indirect proofs only token attention. They are almost universally deficient in treating this topic or providing a variety of problems suitable for this level.
