Dynamics of the subject development of students and study groups at different stages of educational process in university
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.
