The development of knowledge, skills and competences related to values and their measuring units represents an important part of the overall education in mathematics for primary school students in Grades 1-4. The research studies different theoretical concepts related to the competences and the approaches in the primary school education. Based on the analysis of the respective legislation the researcher presents interconnections between the specific mathematical competences and the term “mass” from the competency cluster “Measurement”. The newly developed methodology system of work for learning the term “Mass” is applied during both the mandatory and the additional mathematics classes in Grades 1-4. Different approaches for education are simultaneously applied but priority is given to the system-acting approach with the idea to achieve unification between the act of teaching and the control of the cognitive and practical productive activities of the students. As a result of applying the newly developed methodology system of work the students actively participate in the pedagogy interrelations and co-operation with the rest of the students, they have the opportunity to express their own intellectual and emotional potential. When the students make mistakes, during the practical individual, team and group activities they get the opportunity to correct these mistakes and to develop their own logical thinking.

Statement of the problem. This article discusses the problem of universal learning skills (ULS) assessment among primary schoolchildren in the process of network interaction during computer science lesson activities. The research problem is determined by the requirements of the modern information society and becomes especially relevant in the context of the transition to distance learning in connection with the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. The purpose of the article is to give scientific grounds and description of the assessment means for identifying the ULS formation level among primary schoolchildren at computer science lessons in the process of network interaction. The research methodology is based on the analysis and synthesis of regulatory documents on primary school education, research works of Russian and foreign scientists on the problem of digital socialization of generation Z and the organization of distance learning in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic; analysis of research in the field of networking; analysis of research in the field of ULS diagnostics among students. Research results. We described a method for communicative and regulatory ULS assessment formed among primary schoolchildren of the fourth grade at computer science lessons during the stage of network interaction using Google cloud services. The proposed method based on the level model of network interaction among primary school students was tested in Gymnasium No. 9 in Krasnoyarsk and School No. 11 in Abakan from 2016 to 2019. In total, the study covered 120 students over three years. Conclusion. As a result of our study, we have come to the conclusion that organization of network interaction based on distributed groups in space according to the level model contributes to the ULS formation of the basic and advanced levels that is confirmed by the results of their assessment. The materials presented in the article can be used by both elementary school teachers and subject teachers at the level of primary school education, as well as by methodologists and school administration to assess the ULS among students.


The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with school refusal behavior in primary school students. Student’s self-report and teacher’s measures were implemented; and students were recruited from 20 primary schools in six districts in Selangor, Malaysia. The survey was conducted at the end of school term in 2016, with a total of 915 students from Year 4 and Year 5 participating. The sample of students had been absent from school for more than 15% of school days in the current year. Pearson correlation shows a significant relationship between academic achievement and school satisfaction toward school refusal behavior. The findings of this study suggest that academic difficulties and dissatisfaction towards school environment could be the important risk factors for school refusal behavior. The present study underscores the importance of early detection and intervention as measures to reduce school refusal. Finally, the findings imply that the role of school factors should always be taken into account in connection with school refusal behaviour.
