AbstractDigital transformation requires the field of education to increasingly deal with the interplay between the teachers’ individual development of digital competence and institutional integration and adoption of digital technology. This is especially crucial in the vocational education context, which is closer to the world of work and, therefore, more sensitive to the disruptive changes of digitalisation. This chapter addresses this issue by proposing the result of a project that aimed to identify a new professional profile in the context of dual vocational education in Switzerland. The Digital Facilitator is a new term that refers to a teacher with advanced digital competency who is an expert in facilitating digital innovation adoption within educational institutions. Thus, it constitutes a possible concrete way to address the issue of integrating the individual and the organisational perspectives related to digital transformation. The profile is discussed by presenting an analysis of acknowledged existing frameworks and by considering the specificities of the context in which it was developed. The opportunities and challenges associated with introducing the profile are also critically addressed.

The rapid development of digital technology changes the requirements for professionals in the workplace. In today's world, a competitive specialist must possess not only professional competence, but also digital, which includes not only digital skills but also a set of skills, knowledge, views on the nature and role of information technology and the opportunities that they offer in everyday situations, and as well as relevant legal and ethical principles. The article presents the main components of digital competence, namely, information and information literacy, communication and collaboration, digital content creation, security and problem solving. One of the tools for determining the level of formation of the digital competency of the masters of the university is described in detail using the self-diagnostic test developed in Spain in 2014 based on DigComp (The Digital Competence Framework for Citizens). The self-diagnostic test model for testing digital competence is consistent with the defined strategic guidance in the European Digital Agenda and identifies the key components of digital competence in terms of knowledge, skills and competences required in a digital society. The results of the level of formation of digital competency of masters after the completion of the first year of study in terms of equipment - communication - use are presented. Comparison of the level of digital competency of graduate students in the beginning of the academic year and after its completion is made. The main recommendations for improving the level of digital competence of masters are analyzed and singled out. In the future, it is planned to carry out a self-diagnostic test on completion of training and to develop a roadmap to increase the level of digital competency of masters during university studies.

Introduction. Today, the field of education around the world is facing a protracted crisis caused by the transition to post-industrial society. The dynamic knowledge obsolescence due to the rapid development of science and high technology caused deep structural changes in employment and significantly shortened the life cycle of professions. Modern economy needs specialists with qualitatively new characteristics: a competent and flexible person with meta-professional competencies, who is capable to implement innovative activity and to work in multitasking regime in the situation of instability and uncertainty, and who is ready for active professional self-determination throughout life. Therefore, a radical reorganisation of vocational education system is necessary to be undertaken. It is significantly important to solve this problem through the conduction of professional and pedagogical training of teachers, since the level of their competency primarily depends on the qualitative characteristics of future employees for diverse sectors of the economy and production.The aim of the present article is to define strategic guidelines for predicting the development of professional education in the conditions of post-industrial society.Methodology and research methods. The theoretical and methodological framework of the research is based on the theory of vocational development, the concept of determining the immediate and long-term perspectives of educational sphere, as well as logical-evolutionary, system-dynamic, project-based, personal and convergent approaches. In the course of the research, the methods of analysis, synthesis, generalisation and hypothetical-inductive method were applied.Results and scientific novelty. The trends and directions of vocational education development are identified and described. The principal defining factor of vocational education is close integration of all its processes and subsystems (prevocational, primary vocational, vocational higher secondary and postgraduate education), which integrity is ensured by the continuity and compliance with the principle of advanced education. The concept of convergence and transprofessional in multi-disciplinary training of professionals is revealed. The process of convergence, determining interdisciplinary and prevocational links, ensures transprofessionalism formation – human readiness and participation in the development and realisation of new types of socio-professional activities. A logical and semantic model of a modern specialist is constructed. This model can serve as an empirical basis for designing and supporting a vocational educational platform, which integrates natural science, industrial-technological and socio-humanitarian disciplines and related innovative technologies when training teachers for the system of vocational education. Transprofessionalism, cooperation, collaboration, advanced and high-speed education are highlighted as the vocational training strategies in the conditions of digital transformation of the economy.Practical significance. The research materials can be useful for the specialists in the field of vocational education, for the managerial staff of educational organisations when developing management decisions and organising efficient preparation of teaching personnel.

AbstractThe dependence of development and homeostasis in animals on the interaction of hundreds of extracellular regulatory proteins with the peri- and extracellular glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate (HS) is exploited by many microbial pathogens as a means of adherence and invasion. Heparin, a widely used anticoagulant drug, is structurally similar to HS and is a common experimental proxy. Exogenous heparin prevents infection by a range of viruses, including S-associated coronavirus isolate HSR1. Here, we show that heparin inhibits severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) invasion of Vero cells by up to 80% at doses achievable through prophylaxis and, particularly relevant, within the range deliverable by nebulisation. Surface plasmon resonance and circular dichroism spectroscopy demonstrate that heparin and enoxaparin, a low-molecular-weight heparin which is a clinical anticoagulant, bind and induce a conformational change in the spike (S1) protein receptor-binding domain (S1 RBD) of SARS-CoV-2. A library of heparin derivatives and size-defined fragments were used to probe the structural basis of this interaction. Binding to the RBD is more strongly dependent on the presence of 2-O or 6-O sulfate groups than on N-sulfation and a hexasaccharide is the minimum size required for secondary structural changes to be induced in the RBD. It is likely that inhibition of viral infection arises from an overlap between the binding sites of heparin/HS on S1 RBD and that of the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2. The results suggest a route for the rapid development of a first-line therapeutic by repurposing heparin and its derivatives as antiviral agents against SARS-CoV-2 and other members of the Coronaviridae.

. Introduction. Transition to a post-industrial socio-economic structure and information society caused education crisis, which is common for world space. Dynamic development of high technologies and rapid obsolescence of knowledge significantly reduced life cycle of professions and caused deep structural changes in the sphere of employment. The need of economics for workers with qualitatively new qualification characteristics - a flexible person with meta-professional competencies, capable to solve complex professional problems and ready for innovative activity not just for today, but with the future in mind - has necessitated a significant updating of the system of vocational training and its reorganisation facilitating the implementation of a formula “lifelong learning”. The solution of problems of education begins with qualitative training of teachers, since the qualities of future professionals - graduates of the educational organisation, primarily depend on the level of teachers’ competencies.The aim of the present article is to determine the strategic directions of innovative development of vocational education and preparation of highly qualified pedagogical personnel.Methodology and research methods. The hypothetico-inductive method, theoretic-methodological analysis and synthesis of the content of scientific literature were the major research methods. The research work was carried out on the basis of the principle of convergence, which determines cross-disciplinary and supra-professional communications, acts as a factor of design and a statement in professiology of a new phenomenon - transprofessionalism. The authors described the concept of transprofessionalism through the process- and project-based approaches.Results and scientific novelty. The developmental trends and directions of vocational education are considered. The principal defining factor of vocational education is close integration of all its processes and subsystems (prevocational training - secondary vocational education - higher education institutions - postgraduate training), which integrity is provided by the continuing and advanced education. The concept of transprofessionalism and convergence in multidisciplinary training of specialists is proved. The innovative educational programmes based on this concept are characterised. The logical-semantic model of a modern specialist is designed. This model can form an empirical basis to design vocational education platform, which integrates socio-humanistic, natural-science disciplines and related innovative technologies for teachers’ training in the system of continuing vocational education. Strategic directions for realisation of such preparation are formulated: transprofessionalism, cooperation / collaboration, advanced and “high-speed” training, digital transformation.Practical significance. The research materials can be useful for specialists in the field of vocational education, heads of the educational organisations in order to develop and make managerial decisions and to effectively organise the process of vocational training of pedagogical personnel.
