The article is devoted to the actual problem of the professional training of future primary school teachers for the formation information-digital competence of primary school age students from the point of view of the competence-based approach. The urgency of the problem under study has been proved, taking into account the transformation processes taking place in society, in particular: digitalization, updating the content of education, the impact of the consequences of a global pandemic, etc. The essence of the concepts «competence», «competence-based approach», «information-digital competence» has been determined. The priority of the competence-based approach to the problem of professional training of future primary school teachers, including the formation of various competencies of primary school age students, is noted. The leading competencies that make up the information-digital competence of a primary school teacher have been determined (the ability to: navigate the information space, search and critically evaluate information, operate it in professional activities; effectively use existing and create (if necessary) new electronic (digital) educational resources, use digital technologies in the educational process) and a primary school age students (the ability: to understand the essence of information, analyze it, search in different sources and critically reflect on it; to use media for educational purposes; to effective communication on the Internet; to create and distribute various content on the network Internet).

To Receive

The article is devoted to the topical problem of increasing the effectiveness of vocal and choral lessons with primary school pupils. In particular, in the conditions of general availability and speed of obtaining information, pupils are determined to receive a quick "visible" result. As an effective method for solving this problem, according to the author, the kinesthetic method is used in vocal and choral classes not as an auxiliary method, but as the main method, where vocal and choral training becomes its natural continuation. The article is devoted to a detailed analysis of the kinesthetic method, the justification of its effectiveness in vocal and choral classes. A comprehensive analysis of the application of the kinesthetic method in vocal and choral pedagogy of primary school age is carried out. The idea of the effectiveness of the kinesthetic method in this age category is substantiated, since at the initial stage of training the child goes through several stages of personal growthand development, the combination of which greatly complicates the process of obtaining basic skills.

Introduction: Citizen involvement in scientific projects has become a means of encouraging curiosity and greater understanding of science whilst providing an unprecedented engagement between professional scientists and the general public. In this paper we specifically focus on the impact of online citizen science (OCS) participation in the science education of primary school age children in New Zealand. Methods: We use four exploratory cases within a broader research project to examine the nature and impact of embedding OCS projects that use web-based online crowdsourcing and collaboration tools within classroom environments of primary school science learners.Results & Discussion: Our findings provide insights into primary school teachers’ perception of OCS. They offer initial insights into how teachers embed OCS in a classroom environment, and why this improves science learning aptitudes, inquisitiveness and capabilities in primary school age children. We also notice that successfully embedding OCS projects in education is affected by the project context, how the results are disseminated, and inclusivity in socio-cultural aspects.....................................................................................................................................................................This paper is a preprint of a paper accepted at the 11th ACM Conference on Web Science 2019 (https://websci19.webscience.org/).

The Impact

In the article the results of an empirical express-research of features of impact of performing interpretation on the emotional sphere of primary school-age children are analyzed. The main coordinates of emotional experience of music – a modality, sign (valency), semantic space, intensity, dynamics, complexity level (monomodality – polymodality) and contents (intentionality), are considered. For the purpose of comparative analysis of perception results, performing versions of musical works С. Debussy’s Prelude “The wind on the plain” (electronic transcription in the arrangement of E. Artemyev and piano option of B. Lotar-Shevchenko) and Chopin’s Prelude in C major (treatments: R. Kerer and M. Pollini) are used. As a result of the analysis of empirical data, the principal effect of emotional influence of performing interpretation of the work is determined. It consists in the specific organization of emotional relationships, regrouping of emotional signs and estimates, emphasis of creative resources of the child and manifestation of the highest feelings – esthetic, hedonistic, romantic, and intellectual, etc. The model of empirical research, the differentiated structure of emotional relationships, the revealed features of the impact of the musical-performing image on the emotional sphere of junior schoolchildren not only determine the prospects for further research in the psychology of art, but also the possibility of integrating the experience of implementing this model in the process of forming the student competence in the field of music and performing culture and the development of the emotional sphere of children in the system music education.

The Impact

The article presents results of an empirical research of cognitive, affective (emotional) and behavioral components of ecological consciousness in 323 children of preschool and primary school age (6—10 years).It was found that preschool age children underestimate the impact of nature on man, but at the same time overestimate the human impact on nature. Children of this age attributed greater importance to being emotionally close with nature than children of primary school age. When choosing between the industrial, social or natural environment, children of both age groups give preference to the natural environment, leaving the industrial one the least preferred. The outcomes of this research were used to analyze the development of dialectical thinking (actions of transformation and association) in children of these age groups. As it was revealed, dialectical thinking in children of preschool age is predominantly visual. In primary school children, the visual form is replaced by conceptual and symbolic thinking, although still in an underdeveloped form. The article concludes that the first two years of school education have little influence on the development of dialectical thinking in the part that concerns actions of transformation.

The Impact

The fast-spreading coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic forced countries to apply restrictive measures to counteract it. School closure was quickly adopted by health authorities. We aimed to investigate the compliance of children aged 4 to 12 years with the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions and evaluate the impact of school closure on the children’s educational, social, economic, and psychological outcomes. An online survey was distributed through a social networking platform to parents of pre-primary and primary school-age children. The study period was defined as from 27 November 2020 to 3 December 2020, two weeks after the school closure due to the general lockdown in Greece. This study showed that the school units were well-informed and complied with the protection measures against COVID-19. The pupils quickly adopted the protection measures, even those whose parents suggested masks were less effective. The quarantine-forced school closure highly impacted primary school children’s physical activity, quality of sleep, psychological status, eating habits, academic performance, and household income. Web use showed an increase, with the children over-spending extracurricular time in web activities. Our study highlights the need for long term monitoring of these aforementioned indices, and the development of COVID-19 mitigation measures that carefully incorporate effectiveness and societal impact.
