The primary task of the 21st century education is not anymore to transfer continuous information, but the skill to acquire independently and learn this knowledge during lifetime. In the future, the development of transversal skills plays an important role in the educational process. Transversal skills, such as critical thinking and problem-solving, creativity and innovation, self-guided learning, cooperation, civic participation and digital literacy, are raised in the framework of Education Reform in Latvia (Skola 2030, 2017). The beginning of the learning process during the stage of primary school is an essential step in transversal skills acquisition, particularly emphasizing the impact of the Classes 1-3 stage, on the further learning process. According to the outcomes determined in the standard of primary education to be achieved, it is necessary to develop significantly transversal skills in this stage, as well as observe carefully the changes in children’s age development that affect the possibilities of transversal skills development.The goal of the research:  analyse the development of transversal skills in primary school (Classes 1-3).Research method: content analysis of the education content regulating documents and scientific literature.

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 article examines the ideas of educational shift relevant to the quality of education developed during the Lithuanian Education Reform as formulated by Meile Luksiene in her writings. The research is based on an analysis of scientific literature concerning the concepts of shift and quality, regulating educational documents as well as an empirical study, i.e. the data collected from a qualitative analysis of the scientist’s writings. The problem of the research: how are the ideas formulated by M. Luksiene relevant to the education development quality? The object of the research: shift as a prerequisite for a new education quality as expressed in the writings of M.  Luksiene. The goal of the research: to emphasize the significance of M. Luksiene’s ideas of shift oriented towards the quality of education. Having performed the research tasks, which include presenting theoretical research presumptions on the basis of analysis of scientific literature and educational documents, comparing the concepts of shift and presumed education development quality as formulated by M. Luksiene to those developed on the theoretical level, exhibiting M.  Luksienes’s shift ideas oriented towards the education quality on conceptual, personal, organizational and governmental levels by means of an empirical study, comparing the presumed education quality in M.  Luksiene’s writings to the content of present concerted education quality examining the vigor of M.  Luksiene’s ideas, the authors draw the following conclusions: The concept of shift modeled by M. Luksiene in her writings on educational issues is close to the theoretical one formulated by scientists, i.e. to that of a shift during a confrontation between two social powers, stages of a shift, the concept of a shift as of a long-lasting process, perspectives of a shift. The presumed education development quality implied by M. Luksiene in her writings is close to the theoretical quality concept formulated by scientists in terms of integral parts of holistic quality, i.e. the quality of primary conditions, educational process and, partly, of consequences, where consequences is understood as cultural maturity of a nation and society. The quality of results is mentioned indirectly, whereas the surplus value, an integral part of holistic quality, is not directly discussed. The presumed education development quality implied in M. Luksiene’s writings is closely related to the theoretical scientific quality concept expressed in terms of greater humanistic values, such as relation to an individual, as well as of civil, social values, and partly of the ethical values of public service. The economic values related to education quality are not directly approached. Basically all education quality subcategories defined in M. Luksiene’s writings have their equivalents in the present concerted criteria for school self-evaluation, which allows maintaining that the content of education development quality modeled by M. Luksiene and the one created at present are akin. It has been noted that the main value based educational principles, by means of which education quality can be expressed and which were emphasized by M. Luksiene, i.e. those related to humanity, democracy, nationality and renewal, have only been maintained in the regulating educational documents of independent Lithuania irregularly. The closeness of the presumed education development quality content modeled by M. Luksiene in her writings to modern concerted education quality criteria indicate, that the scientist’s ideas are relevant in the present stage of Education Reform.

This study seeks to establish the quality and type of feedback necessary and suitable for learners, understandable by learners and implementable in the learning process by the learners to improve progress in learning numeracy. However, although written feedback is believed to be instrumental in shaping the pupils’ classroom performance, there is less agreement on whether this is workable in the real world of the classroom or has remained an intended goal of feedback. There is limited work in literature on how pupils respond or use written feedback to improve their performance. A questionnaire was administered to a group of Year 5 students at a school in England to solicit the pupils’ perceptions of the usefulness of written feedback and the challenges that were likely to be faced in interpreting and implementing the feedback. In order to measure the impact of feedback on students’ performance, a pre-test was given, pupils’ recommendations from the questionnaire were incorporated, and a second test was given two days later. The two sets of marks were then compared. It was found that pupils find it difficult to understand written feedback at times, mainly because of unfamiliar vocabulary used in the feedback and when they do understand the language, they often find it unhelpful in achieving their learning goals. Teachers are recommended to simplify and add more detail to feedback, making it as informative as possible about what was done well and suggest improvements that could be made.

The Impact

The article proves the possibility of forming the ability to understand music by primary school students. The influence of program works of the school program on the perception and understanding of music of different genres is proved by concrete examples. The educational influence of works of musical art on the formation of the artistic and emotional sphere of personality is proved. The formation of the ability to understand works of music by primary school students occurs in a certain sequence based on teacher-student interaction, both in music lessons and during extracurricular work on artistic and aesthetic education of primary school children. The collective type of creativity, inherent in the assimilation of the values of musical art, obliges the subjects of the educational process to comply with certain requirements for the organization of joint activities. In accordance with modern music-pedagogical technologies, which enable the effectiveness of the learning process, there are certain requirements for the perception of works of music of different genres and compositional styles provided by the school curriculum. Thus, the quality of the impact of music on primary school students depends on certain factors. Because, according to the school curriculum, music lessons are united by a common theme, which makes it possible to organize work with children in such a way as to give first-graders the opportunity to talk about their favorite music. To do this, prepare and ask the class a few questions, such as: remember what songs you sang or heard from radio and television programs that focused your attention and you liked ?; what song do you dream to sing ?; what dance music do you like Such a conversation should take place in a friendly atmosphere, and children's responses should be supported and evaluated positively. The teacher's tolerant attitude to any thoughts, feelings and expressions of students gives the child confidence in their own abilities, determination and activity in further work.

Digital technologies increase the impact on society, economy and education every day. Schools gradually penetrate the technologies of virtuality and complemented reality; teachers must be prepared not only for their understanding, but also for their use. Currently, mixed learning becomes more popular in educational institutions, but not all teachers understand the essence of this concept. A generalized analysis of domestic scholars has shown that the notion of "mixed learning" relates to such concepts as "learning process", "learning system", "educational technology", "educational methodology", "combination of methods", "modernization tool", etc. On the basis of the analysis of literature on the concept of "mixed learning" in foreign and domestic researchers, the author presents her own definition, discloses the main components of mixed learning and its benefits in organizing educational activities in institutions of general secondary education; a scheme of combining traditional and e-learning in a mixed one is prepared. Digital technologies have a significant impact on the nature, the form of training, the kind of activity of students, allow the implementation of fundamentally new forms and methods of learning, and, as a consequence, increase the efficiency of educational process in a digital society. Before higher education there is the task of training specialists who can use a computer for the organization of interactive training and testing, video conferencing, participation in telecommunication projects, webinars, forums, etc. It is noted that modern teacher has to develop independently educational content in text, video, multimedia and hypermedia format, to use digital and educational resources, to set up educational content management systems and to organize training with the use of the Internet and its services.
