Introduction. Current educational practice largely functions independently of didactics: decisions on the selection of content, the methods and forms of instruction are often made at different levels and in different areas of education without a conceptual substantiation. This does not necessarily mean the educators’ lack of knowledge, it rather points at the urgency of updating didactic research, including objects and phenomena that are relevant and have not been extensively studied yet.The aim of the present publication is to pose relevant problems of didactic research, based on the challenges rooted in the development of educational practice.Methodology and research methods. This research is based on systemic, interdisciplinary, and anthropological approaches. Research methods include analysis, synthesis, systematisation, modelling, idealisation, forecasting.Results. The authors state the need to expand the range of issues covered by didactic research. Additionally, the authors highlighted didactic research problems related to learning across all levels of the educational ladder, to a wide range of contexts of educational practice: psychological and didactic characteristics of a modern agent of learning; didactic foundations for the selection of educational content in the context of the transformation of the educational environment of the digital era; the expansion of conceptual and terminological toolbox of didactics; contextual features of didactic principles in diverse areas of educational practice; didactical aims and functions of non-traditional learning formats; didactic foundations and the range of the teacher’s roles in various learning formats; the development of didactics for teacher training.The directions of promising didactic research are identified. The authors conclude the necessity for broadening research area to cover problems facing didactics: inclusion of phenomena and processes that were left out of the scope of traditional didactic research; enhancing the role of interdisciplinary research on learning, enhancing the versatility of didactic concepts and their scientific validity; a didactic study of specific innovative educational practices, identifying the feasibility and possibilities of their dissemination in different areas of education.Scientific novelty. The article describes educational practices, which are not covered by didactic studies. The authors identify and present conceptual gaps, which challenge didactics to expand and enrich its conceptual toolkit. Several paradoxes are highlighted as conceptual contradictions, which indicate the gaps in modern didactic knowledge: paradoxes of the learning actor, of learning outcomes, of teacher expertise. These paradoxes prompt to update didactics as the theory of education.Practical significance. The development of didactics in the areas considered in the article will make it possible to improve the educational process on a theoretically verified basis, enhance opportunities, to reduce the risks, and to increase the effectiveness of innovations.

A modern teacher has to work on professional self-improvement throughout his/her life in order to be worthy of the high title of “teacher”; therefore, he/she must constantly master the technologies of generalization and dissemination of innovative pedagogical experience. Research Methods: To address the research problems, research methods including analysis of the products of teachers’ activities, survey, analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization of empirical data, questioning, expert evaluation, and statistical data processing were used. Research Results: In this study, the dissemination of such experiences in the process of upgrading teacher’s pedagogical qualification was positioned as a purposeful assistance in creating and applying the integrated unity of three spaces: educational, educational-reflexive, and social-practical. Discussion: The andragogical support of school teachers, who master innovative pedagogical experiences, should be organized proceeding from the andragogical approach to the educational process, which actualizes the principles of independence, taking into account the experiences of students, the application of learning outcomes to a specific situation, the intensification of the need for education. Conclusion”. The main differences between teachers working in schools and gymnasiums are manifested in a higher level of dissemination activity on the part of gymnasium teachers, which is related to the requirements to the staff in this institution and to personal characteristics of teachers who are more focused on creativity and the introduction of innovations into the pedagogical process.

Light sources used in signal lights for transportation applications have a variety of temporal onset characteristics, including a wide range of onset times. These characteristics, along with luminous intensity and color characteristics, can have important impacts on the ability to detect and respond to colored signal lights. Studies of the impact of these factors on responses to colored signals are reviewed, along with potential implications for the selection of light sources used in traffic and vehicle signals. The onset characteristics of recently developed light sources might offer significant potential to improve visual detection of signal lights. Nonetheless, it is important to understand the context in which a signal light is presented to determine whether such improvements in visual detection have practical significance.

The biobank is a structure established with the goal of long-term responsible storage of biological samples and the associated data for their further use in scientific and clinical research. The objectives of biobanking are the creation of unified recommendations on: the planning of premises and the selection of equipment for storage; development of management methods and staff training; standardization of methods for the collection, shipping, processing and storage of biomaterial of various origins, as well as methods for quality control and validation of the applied methods; creation and use of databases of information accompanying biospecimens. The lack of common standards for conducting the preanalytical phase has been the cause of low accuracy and poor reproducibility of research results. To date, a large number of guidelines and best practices have been published that provide an answer to a wide range of problems in organizing the biobanking process. The article provides an overview of the most famous biobanking guidelines that can be used to solve various research problems. Biobanking in Russia is actively developing. Since 1996 there is a work on the legislative regulation of biobanking activities, as a result of which a number of regulatory documents have been issued. An important stage in the development of biobanking in Russia was the establishment of the “National Association of Biobanks and Biobanking Specialists” (NASBio) in 2018, which included representatives of medical and research institutions, commercial firms, and qualified specialists in the field of biobanking. One of the key tasks of NASBio is the adaptation and implementation of the best biobanking practices in Russian research institutes and centers. The use of modern guidelines and best practices on biobanking will lead to an increase in the quality of research and publications.

Introduction. The article presents a philosophical and methodological substantiation of personal experience as a subject of development in the educational process and personal culture as the goal of developmental education. Such a justification is the content of philosophy of developmental education in that part, which can be attributed to philosophical anthropology, to the philosophy of culture and social philosophy. This content is made up of knowledge about the laws governing the development of a personal experience and the formation of the main types of personal culture. It allows us to determine the invariant structure of educational goals, which can be correlated with the requirements for educational outcomes described through competences. On the basis of the invariant system of developmental education goals, variable ways of achieving these goals, both for general and for vocational education, can be determined, reflecting the particular and individual levels of human existence.The aim of the present article is to philosophically substantiate the understanding of personal culture as the goal of education, focused on the development of a person as a whole, on the development of the personality.Methodology and research methods. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical approach: the dialectic of the essence and existence of a person, the principle of unity of diversity, the relationship of general, particular and individual. Research methods were determined in accordance with philosophical and psychological knowledge about a person, obtained on the basis of applying systematic, subject-active and cultural-historical approach.Results. The result of the study was the conclusion that the laws of acquisition, reproduction and development of a personal experience are the objective basis for determining the system of goals of developmental education, its content and the complex of ways to organise it. Personal experience is the subject of development in the process of education. The qualitative state of experience, which characterises the completion of the stages of the social and cultural development of a person, is defined by the authors as personal culture. It acts as a complete product of the educational process, and therefore the overall goal of education. Knowledge of the laws of existence and development of the basic elements of personal social and cultural experience becomes the rationale for determining the goals, content and methods of organising education and training in a holistic educational process.Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time in the philosophy of education, the authors consider the formation of personal culture in conjunction with the development by individuals of groups of cultural means corresponding to the main stages of human cultural development.Practical significance. The developed approach allows for the determination of the invariant structure of pedagogical technologies of continuing developmental education, as well as this approach involves the creation of a variable component of technology, ensuring the unity and originality of the levels of human existence in the educational process.

The methodological basis of our work is the system of general scientific and special methods of cognition of scientific phenomena. The general scientific method combines a wide range of methods of both theoretical and applied research. The determined tasks and subject of the study led to the use of dialectical, statistical, formal-logical, formal-dogmatic, systemic-structural, comparative-legal, sociological and historical methods. The methodological basis of our work is the universal scientific dialectic method, which makes it possible to analyze the phenomenon of religious tourism and pilgrimage in its development, interaction and interrelation with other phenomena. The practical significance of the results obtained is that the conclusions and provisions of this work will contribute to its further development. Scientific novelty. Travel pilgrims are carried out to religious sites. These objects of pilgrimage are used not only in religious tourism, but also as interesting places of interest in other types of tourism, in particular, in cultural-cognitive, rural and ecological. Considering the importance of the spiritual revival of Ukrainian citizens, the development of the interest of foreign tourists in the religious and cultural values of different denominations, the preparation of recommendations and development of measures for the organization and development of religious tourism in the Lviv region will be relevant. The practical significance of the results is the possibility of their use in the research area for further research on the phenomenon of religious tourism and pilgrimage; in the field of teaching in the teaching of disciplines and in the preparation of textbooks, manuals and methodological recommendations.

Introduction. A historical overview is often quite useful in search for answers to some pressing issues. Learning from others can also help to cope with separate current problems. One of such problems encountered by modern Russian professional education is restoration and consolidation of its practice orientation through selection of an appropriate content and upbringing of youth in the course of pre-employment process. A considerable variety of material in this regard has been accumulated over the last several centuries in Germany.The aim of this paper was to analyse the cause-and-effect relationships of developmental priorities in the German professional pedagogy during the 18th – early 20th centuries.Methodology and research methods. System and comparative approaches were used as main methodological tools. The leading method was a comparative retrospective analysis, which allowed the authors to compare various scientific resources. In addition, the approaches of goal-setting and formalisation of expected results were applied. The content analysis and systematisation of documents and other historical and pedagogical resources were employed. In view of information extensiveness, the selection was compiled with the principle of necessity and sufficiency, i. e. reduction of excess data when maintaining the completeness of facts for continued use.Results and scientific novelty. The stages of formation and development of labour school were identified according to the ideas of the German scientists and the educational practice accepted in Germany during the considered historical period. The main directions of training through activity were characterised: philanthropinism, manualism, professionalism and activism. The influence of social and economic conditions on formation and transformation of various educational concepts was demonstrated, which constant despite everything was a combination of fundamental and applied components of vocational training. The continuity of pedagogical theory and practice of the past in the modern system of the German professional education was shown.Practical significance. The findings obtained by the Russian-German research team can be useful when developing and implementing flexible and adaptive differentiated curricula into modern vocational education in Russia.

Recently, Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has become an important research area because of its wide range of applications in several domains such as health care, elder care, sports monitoring systems, etc. The use of wearable sensors — specifically the use of inertial sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes — has become the most common approach to recognize physical activities because of their unobtrusiveness and ubiquity. Overall, the process of building a HAR system starts with a feature extraction phase and then a classification model is trained. In the work of Siirtola et al. is proposed an intermediate clustering step to find the homogeneous groups of activities. For the recognition step, an instance is assigned to one of the groups and the final classification is performed inside that group. In this work we evaluate the clustering-based approach for activity classification proposed by Siirtola with two additional improvements: automatic selection of the number of groups and an instance reassignment procedure. In the original work, they evaluated their method using decision trees on a sports activities dataset. For our experiments, we evaluated seven different classification models on four public activity recognition datasets. Our results with 10-fold Cross Validation showed that the method proposed by Siirtola with our additional two improvements performed better in the majority of cases as compared to using the single classification model under consideration. When using Leave One User Out Cross Validation (user independent model) we found no differences between the proposed method and the single classification model.
