Myopia in schoolchildren is a serious problem. The frequency of its detection in the lower grades of the school is 68%, and by the end of school at least 2530%. In special school this indicator reaches 50%, which is associated with more intense and longer visual loads, prolonged work at the computer and more frequent use of other electronic storage media. The genesis and progression of myopia is largely due to the intensive educational process in which schoolchildren are involved already from the first year of study, as well as to the corresponding violations of the hygiene of their visual work at close range. The article presents the results of a retrospective analysis of case histories of 53 school-age children living in St. Petersburg. The role of socio-hygienic factors related to the schoolchildrens connected their family life (including material well-being) and the availability of modern technical means (computers, video game consoles, mobile phones, etc.) was studied. An analysis of external factors (deficient physical activity of the child, change of the daily regimen, later visit of the childs parents by an ophthalmologist), which have a negative impact on the development and progression of myopia in schoolchildren, was also relevant. Based on the results of the study, recommendations were developed for the observation and correction of myopia in schoolchildren.

Younger Generation

The most important criterion for assessing the well-being of society, a factor in the national security of the country is the health of the younger generation. The state of health of adolescents is largely determined by the level of valeological education in the family. After all, the family develops the skills of a healthy lifestyle, universal spiritual values, and norms of social life. The main task today, on the one hand, is to study and identify the factors of individual and family health and social risk, and on the other hand - to optimize the early diagnosis and prevention of health disorders in children. The formation of skills for a healthy lifestyle of adolescents is crucial for the spiritual and physical development of the younger generation, its formation as a social personality. The paper examines the problems of forming a healthy lifestyle of Ukrainian adolescents aged 15-18, whose socialization takes place in the information society, which is implemented by processing 1,075 sets of questionnaires ("Questionnaire of adolescents 15-18 years" and "Questionnaire of mothers of adolescents 15-18 years"), in the analysis of which only informative answers were taken into account. Information base - the international program ELSPAC - (European Longitudinal Study of Parenthood and Childhood - European long-term monitoring of parenthood and childhood), its Ukrainian fragment "Family and Children of Ukraine". It was found that the main source of information for adolescents is a computer with the Internet and television (71.3 and 66.4% of respondents, respectively). The results of the survey of adolescents on the place of work at the computer showed that for the most part - 79.2% of respondents work at home, a third at school - 37.2% and 17.2% of adolescents - in the computer club (17.2%). The maximum number of answers confirms that both on weekdays and weekends the duration of work on the computer is from 1 to 6 hours with a maximum value of 2 hours for working days (23.6%) and 4 hours - on weekends and holidays (15.7%)). Information on the negative impact on the human body of long-term computer use is known to the vast majority of respondents - 95.8% of adolescents. The majority of respondents for offline communication prefer peers, some loyal friends (63.4 and 60.7%, respectively), only 45.2 and 40.4% of adolescents like to communicate with their parents and beloved person, respectively. An analysis of literary preferences found that one in four to five teenagers enjoyed reading school literature, comics, humor and science fiction, short stories and novels, encyclopedias and dictionaries. The results of the survey of mothers of adolescents on the assessment of the daily routine and daily activity of their children prove insufficient physical activity; only 35.7% of adolescents go in for sports in their free time. Home help is most often provided by a teenager making his bed (70.8% of cases), cleaning his room and going to the store (55.6 and 51.1%, respectively). Survey of mothers on the living conditions of their children's sleep showed that the vast majority of them sleep in a separate room (70.0% of adolescents), in a room with other children - 15.3% of respondents, with parents - 9.0% of children in the room with other adults - 2.9% of adolescents. But 3.3% of children do not have a single bed. Summing up the results of the responses of Ukrainian adolescents and their mothers, it is possible to say that in our society, due attention is not paid to the employment of adolescents. Thus, improving the quality of life of adolescents can be achieved by choosing the optimal preventive effect on them, taking into account the individual characteristics of psychological and physical status.

Within the Active Living and Well-Being Project (RRP3), funded by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Regional Development Fund Investing in Your Future program, we aim to develop different approaches and prototype solutions to provide ICT solutions for the family in order to connect its members; communicate; promote quality family time, active life, a health-friendly lifestyle and well-being; and integrate various sensor and user-based data sources into a smart city ecosystem platform. A mixed methodology, combined qualitative and quantitative approaches, was selected to conduct the study. An online survey with a structured questionnaire as well as semi-structured interviews were performed. Through the analysis of the results, we tried to establish a family-centered design approach that would be inclusive as much as possible, creating benefits for all generations in order to develop an interactive prototype solution that would allow us to further test and verify different use-case scenarios.

The problem of the emergence of bullying in the educational area among school-age children is investigated, since in recent years in Ukraine the bullying (baiting) has often been referred to as a negative phenomenon. A brief analysis of modern scientific investigations on the problems of bullying in the educational environment is done, which shows the necessity of a detailed and systematic study on this problem. Bulling is seen as a conflict and widespread phenomenon in children's groups, which can cause a negative impact on formation of personality, difficulties in socio-psychological adaptation, complexity and uncertainty of a young person in choice of next career. It has been noted that numerous facts of child abuse have caused attention to this phenomenon and implementation of specific steps at the state level to counteract and prevent this problem. It is emphasized that the presence of bullying in the educational environment has a negative impact not only on the victim of persecution, but also on the perpetrators (abusers, observers) as well as on parents and teachers. Emphasis is placed on the necessity of coordinated work of educational institutions, school psychologists, social educators, lawyers, parents to overcome bullying, which, respectively can reduce the manifestation of this negative phenomenon and greatly improve the resolution of conflict situations. Finding peaceful ways to resolve conflict situations, upbringing of friendly relationships between children and assimilate moral values leads to a healthy psychological climate in the children's groups, educate the respect and mutual assistance among coevals. There are a number of methodological recommendations for organizing the educational process, conducting cultural events, leisure, extracurricular work, outdoor activities, which help to prevent such a negative phenomenon of our reality. It is concluded that the joint work of relevant state institutions, educators, lawyers, psychologists, parents, media representatives, using different methods of influence on the individuals, may provide conditions for resolution of conflicts and overcoming bullying among children and school youth.

  Abstract. One of the main reasons for the decline in the level of the nation's health is the low manifestation of physical activity in school-age children. The study is relevant because it explores one of the effective ways to solve this issue – the introduction of physical folk games (PFG) in the educational system of the Republic of Kazakhstan. This will affect the physical development of schoolchildren and increase their involvement during physical education lessons. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of physical activities in traditional Kazakh physical games. For this, the types of Kazakh PFGs were studied, their classification was developed, a survey was conducted among schoolchildren to find out their interest in folk games. After that, an educational experiment was set up, during which the positive influence of PFG on the development of the physical skills of children at physical education lessons became evident. It was discovered that the indicators of physical mobility of schoolchildren significantly improved: the number of students with a low level of physical mobility (PM) decreased from 50% to 13%, and the average level of PM in schoolchildren increased from 31% to 62%. Due to the developments of this study, it is possible to continue work on the implementation of PFGs in the educational process, since this process is accessible. Physical folk games do not require complex equipment, expensive buildings, and special conditions. It is also important to study the impact of Kazakh PFGs not only on children with normal development but also on children with special educational needs. Resumen. Una de las principales razones del deterioro del nivel de salud de la nación es la baja manifestación de actividad física por parte de los niños en edad escolar. El artículo es relevante porque explora una de las formas efectivas de resolver este problema - la introducción de juegos folclóricos al aire libre en el sistema educativo de la República de Kazajstán. Esto afectará el desarrollo físico de los escolares y aumentará su participación durante las lecciones de educación física. El propósito de este estudio fue estudiar la efectividad de los juegos tradicionales kazajos al aire libre. Para esto se estudiaron los tipos de juegos populares kazajos al aire libre, se desarrolló su clasificación, se realizó una encuesta entre escolares para conocer su interés en los juegos folclóricos. Después de eso, se organizó un experimento pedagógico, durante el cual se hizo evidente la influencia positiva de juegos folclóricos al aire libre en el desarrollo de las habilidades físicas de los niños durante las lecciones de educación física. Se reveló que los indicadores de movilidad física de los escolares mejoraron significativamente: el número de estudiantes con un bajo nivel de movilidad física (MF) disminuyó del 50% al 13%, y el nivel promedio de MF de los escolares aumentó del 31% al 62%. Gracias al desarrollo de este estudio, es posible continuar trabajando en la implementación de juegos folclóricos al aire libre en el proceso educativo, ya que este proceso es accesible: los juegos folclóricos al aire libre no requieren equipos complejos, edificios costosos y condiciones especiales. También es importante estudiar la influencia de juegos folclóricos kazajas al aire libre no solo en los niños con normas de desarrollo, sino también en los niños con necesidades educativas especiales.

Mixed Groups

The article analyzes the problems associated with teaching foreign students in mixed groups. A mixed group is a formally isolated part of the educational institution cohort that possesses such characteristics as: 1) a fixed heterogeneous ethno-cultural composition, 2) a different level of preparation of students for mastering the disciplines of the general educational program, 3) common cognitive interests and a single educational content in the current period of time; 4) joint educational activities under the guidance of the same teachers, 5) a single period of study. This article aims to highlight the range of language problems that hinder the development of general education programs by foreign students when studying as part of a mixed group. Since the structure of language difficulties varies for different categories of foreign citizens (foreigners with an initial level of proficiency in Russian, foreign speakers, bilinguals), it is important to have a differentiated approach to regulating the educational process and specially organized training taking into account the ethnic and linguistic needs of all members of the group. A differentiated approach to learning, building an individual way of each group member development allows mobilizing cognitive interests and motivating participants in the educational process. The development of specific recommendations to overcome the possible negative impact of a mixed group on the process of obtaining subject knowledge by foreign students is an important methodological task that requires further study.

The coronavirus pandemic has made significant adjustments to the educational process, including the higher education system. The purpose of the study: to study the features of the daily routine, motor activity and nutrition, to assess the psycho-emotional indicators, including the level of depression, anxiety in junior students of various specialties during distance learning. Materials and methods: the survey involved 133 respondents (84.6 % female, 15.4 % male) aged 17 to 22 years (M = 18.89; SD = 1.52). The data was collected remotely between November and December 2020. The following methods were used: the author’s questionnaire aimed at studying the regime moments, eating habits and physical activity of students, as well as the assessment of the academic load, the questionnaire «Well-being, activity, mood», the Beck Depression Inventory, the Spielberger — Hanin anxiety scale (STAI). The results obtained showed that within the framework of distance learning in self-isolation, such deviations from the recommended hygienic parameters were revealed in junior students, such as an unbalanced diet, a reduced level of physical activity, an increase in school time and sleep deprivation. Conclusion: a close relationship between the physical and emotional states of students is revealed. At the same time, it is the nature of physical activity that is a parameter that combines the physical and emotional well-being of students. The lack of formation of psychohygienic attitudes among students actualizes measures aimed at better coordination of the educational process, activation of curatorial support for students, as well as the development and communication of recommendations to students on the organization of regime moments during distance learning.
