This article is devoted to the problem of subject development of students in uni- versity. A small student study group is explored as an environment for the subject development of students and a community that has its own potential to become a collective subject. The level of subject development, interconnection-interdepen- dence of group members, ability of group subject to implement different forms of group collective activity and to manifest as a subject of self-reflection are inves- tigated as essential characteristics of a small study group’s subjectity. An average and percentage indicators of the level of students’ subjectity development at dif- ferent stages of educational process in university are revealed on a sample of 24 small student study groups (N = 364 full-time students, age of respondents is from 17 to 25 years). The study of the correlation between the level of students’ subjec- tity development and subject characteristics, the level of subjectity development of their small study groups allowed to identify and to describe the qualitative fea- tures, the dynamics of the subject development of small study groups and students in the period of six-year education.

Students' motivation is studied quite regularly, but most often it occurs from psychological and pedagogical positions [1; 6; 7; 9]. However, students do not just go to university, they work to acquire the knowledge, skills, and competencies necessary for the development of their future profession, so the learning process must be viewed through the prism of work motivation. The peculiarity of this research is the reliance on research methods that allow us to study this aspect of students’ activity, in particular, the V.I. Gerchikov’s method with some changes that are inevitable due to the specifics of an educational process. The purpose of the study is to determine the factors that affect the motivation of educational activities. The theoretical part of the study describes the main approaches to motivating students' learning activities, as well as the specifics of relationships in the process of studying at the university, which does not allow direct use of methods and practices that have appeared in the framework of theories of labor motivation. As a result of the research conducted in 2019 on the main massif of the 1st and 4th years of full-time education in the Izhevsk State Agricultural Academy by questionnaire (n=781), significant differences in the motivation of students of different groups and faculties were revealed, which allowed us to assume that there are problems in the educational process, which we have not previously recorded. To determine the causes of significant differences in the motivation of individual groups, focus group studies were conducted (n=92) in 6 study groups, where 2 with low average motivation, 2 with middle average motivation, 2 with high average motivation. The authors analyzed the reasons for failure and non-attendance of classes, the organization of the educational process, the specifics of relationships in groups, the impact of the division into subcultures on the learning process and relationships in a group, leisure-time of students, their ideas about the desired changes in the educational process.

The authors propose to consider the digital transformation of education as logistics view, looking at educational logistics like an activity to provide the student with all the necessary educational resources. Usually the problems of education are considered from the standpoint of pedagogy, didactics, and psychology. Logistics is usually associated with the tasks of supply of products. However, logistics is the solution of optimization problems of different processes. The subject of optimization can be the educational process. The advantage of the logistics approach in education is that it is possible to move away from the traditional humanitarian aspects of the relations of the participants of the educational process in order to focus on structural problems and management features. Traditional educational logistics involves the logistics of study groups. Pedagogy works to align all students in the study group. All curricula are based on the study group as a unit of development. If the student fails to integrate into the study group, then he or she is individually pulled up by personal teacher, or picked up by another study group. Digital technologies allow to develop the personal educational logistics — individual development of each student as a new task of new education. Digital technologies blur the boundaries of educational organizations, so there is a wide range of groups of different levels and composition. Instead of fitting the student to the study group, it is possible to fit the groups to the student.

<p>In the informational society while teaching foreign languages the development of students’ skills aimed at searching, analyzing, critical thinking, processing and using the obtained information in the productive speech activity is in demand. In this context, the problem of students’ cognitive self-study development, aimed at “revealing” knowledge while reading, is becoming increasingly important as reading while teaching foreign languages not only contributes to self-development and self-reflection, but also to the formation of a cross-cultural and linguistic personality, which is a priority of linguistic education. The solution of the above-mentioned problems has defined the aim of our research: it is the development and implementation of technologies for optimizing students’ self-study in teaching reading. In the course of our experimental work the implementation of the principle of multi-level approach in the form of five interrelated elements in teaching reading – from the level of mastering reading techniques to the level of critical reading and stylistic comprehension reading – contributed to the ultimate development and improvement of students’ constructive-creative self-study. During the experimental work while testing the effectiveness of our methods of cognitive-practical activities, we concluded that in the process of teaching foreign languages, these methods are an effective way of teaching reading, activating students’ self-study, forming linguistic creativity, which manifests itself in the ability to produce oral and written discourses based on the creative potential development of a linguistic personality. The results obtained in the experiment can be used in educational process while creating and implementing the algorithm of organizing students’ self-study while teaching foreign languages.</p>

The possibilities of real individualization of education in Russian universities are constrained by the peculiarities of the type of organization of the educational process. Almost all Russian universities are characterized by stream-group organization of training, in which study groups and streams are formed once for the entire period of study. Students of each study group during the entire period of study have a common curriculum and a common schedule of training sessions. Opportunities for individualization of curricula and programs are very limited and confined to the choice of a foreign language and one of several disciplines of the socio-economic cycle. In modern higher education, the stream-group organization of education is preserved only in Russian universities, universities of the post-soviet and partially post-socialist space. Most universities in the rest of the world uphold the principles of individually-oriented organization of training, according to which each student has an opportunity to choose from the curriculum modules to study in the next semester, choose the teachers and the time of classes. In accordance with the choice of students, groups and streams are formed, which retain only during the current semester. Thus, we emphasize, not individual persons but all the students of modern universities have individual curricula and schedules of training sessions. The article discusses the opportunities and prospects of the individualization of education at Russian universities.

This case study describes the journey of an undergraduate module in its transition from an in-person lectures-plus-seminar configuration to an interactive, online format using Teams. I show how I created a sense of community and the opportunity for online group interaction by establishing small study groups that carried out weekly online group tasks in their own Team ‘channel’. Weekly roles were assigned to group members to spread the workload and ensure equal participation. Student feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and students particularly appreciated the opportunity to interact with their peers, during a potentially lonely time, for summative marks. Limitations to the model are discussed and potential solutions are offered.

The aim of this research is to examine the trends of the studies that address the education-training dimension of creativity in Turkey. The research was conducted using a qualitative research pattern. The data was collected and analyzed through document analysis. In the analysis of the data, the thesis analysis form developed by the researchers was used. One hundred and forty-five graduate theses studied between 2005 and 2019 in the field of education, which were allowed access by their authors, constitute the study group of this research. 114 of these works consist of graduate theses and 31 of them consist of doctoral theses. The graduate theses in the Council of Higher Education database were examined under a total of 10 titles according to their distribution over the years-educational levels, university distributions, institute distributions, branch distributions, methods and sub-methods, data collection tools, sampling/study groups, sampling methods, education level of the study group and thesis titles. As a result of the research, it was observed that although studies addressing the educational-educational dimension of creativity have increased at a certain level over the years, they are not at the desired point and have not been studied adequately. In addition, it was determined that the studies carried out in terms of the discipline, the methods used and the variety of topics studied had similarities, that no studies on creativity were conducted in some departments, that the study group usually consists of a single level of education, that this situation does not allow to look at creativity from a broad perspective, and that there are many aspects of creativity that have not been studied for those who will work in the educational dimension.

Changes in education contribute to its modernization and renewal. Along with new forms, methods and means of enriching the educational process, the well-known teaching methods using electronic textbooks also hold a positive trend. In the Tomsk Technical School of Railway Transport — branch of the Siberian Transport University electronic textbooks are widely used. The tendency of their application and implementation in educational activities, both with full-time and distance learning, gives good results. Because they use an electronic textbook created for everyone requirements. A plus is the fact that the electronic textbook is developed on the basis of the copyright material of the subject teacher, taking into account intrasubject and intersubject communications. Such development gives a number of advantages over the traditional print publication and allows to achieve higher levels of learning in comparison with traditional forms of training.For students of all specialties, the electronic textbook is an indispensable assistant in the development of disciplines, and for graduates of the specialty “Information Systems” such a textbook is also a good test of their knowledge, skills and competencies. Students of this specialty develop and create electronic textbooks for a technical school under the guidance of scientific advisers and subject teachers, from whom it was requested to present the training course in a multimedia form. as an example, we consider the features of the development, creation, implementation of an electronic textbook on the subject “Astronomy” in the educational process.
