The paper discusses the main issues of organizing the learning process based on the gamification. The publication analyzes the main provisions of the application of elements of gamification in the process of teaching students. The study proposes to consider gamification as a new format of the project method in the context of blended learning in the study of disciplines of the pedagogical cycle by students of humanitarian and natural specialties. We analyzed the main didactic Classcraft platform capabilities. Developed by students within the framework of the “Pedagogy” discipline a brief structure of the “Adventurers” quest was present. The algorithm of the students' work included following steps: choosing a project theme (name of the game); composition of the game (stages); development of the game as a digital product (elements); analysis of the implementation of the game as a digital product (difficulties and prospects); analysis of the results of joint digital project activities of students, indicating positive and negative aspects. We considered the positive aspects of using digital applications and platforms to improve teacher skills. The conclusions provide consolidated proposals for the use of gamification, such as: its implementation in the educational process is aimed at the development of intellectual, social, emotional, technological segments of the personal development of students; the use of gamification has a positive impact on the development of students and teachers soft skills and helps to improve their professional skills.

Due to the accelerated pace of information and communication technology developments, the digital society and the digital economy have become real and, in turn, pose specific challenges. In this environment, digital skills and competences are essential to achieve the professional success and personal development of any individual. The positive impact that information and communication technology has on education cannot be disputed, but there are also some obstacles that need to be overcome in order to make the most of these benefits. An essential aspect to consider is that technology has repercussions not only on pupils and students, but also on teachers, who must adapt and acquire the knowledge necessary to disseminate information. Having as the main objective of reflecting the impact of digitalization on the educational sector, the paper highlights the basic concepts in the field of digital technology and, at the same time, the current implications on educational processes. At the same time, through logistic regression, the way in which the means of digital innovation influence the education in Romania is analysed and to determine the factors with the highest degree of influence. Modern technology can be considered as synonymous with the future and that is why it is essential that all young students acquire the digital knowledge necessary to revolutionize the educational process and at the same time redefine the recruitment of the labour market.

The paper analyzes the approaches to understanding the educational synergy and concludes that the key moment in the realization of the synergistic approach in education is the integration of a variety of knowledge-based interdisciplinary connections. Analysis of Russian universities training plans for different areas of training showed that they differ in a small number of integrated courses, and therefore concluded that it is necessary to implement alternative methods of interdisciplinary connections formation in the educational process, taking into account the multidimensional professional and educational environment. The author considers the possibility of implementing a synergetic approach to the meta-project-based method. The educational meta-project as a special form of independent activity of students is defined; specifics and peculiarities of meta-projects implementation and stages of cognitive meta-project technology are described. Meta-projects implementation may include a variety of forms and methods of training from different educational technologies, but cause the specific challenges facing the lecturer which are presented in the content of the paper. The results of experimental testing confirmed the positive impact of the meta-project method application on the formation of interdisciplinary relationships and integral vision of the future professional work of students, as well as on the development of learners basic skills: thinking, understanding, communication, reflection and action.

The subject of this article is the search for individual psychological peculiarities of the inconsistency between cognitive and socio-psychological development of students. The relevance of this topic is substantiated by the theoretical diversity of research on the inconsistency in psychology and the need for the development of socio-cultural and cognitive skills in the educational process. A hypothesis is advanced that the inconsistency between the processes of cognitive and socio-personal development would be variable, determining the individual psychological methods of its resolution. The goal of this research lies in conjoint analysis of cognitive and personal characteristics for assessing the inconsistency of students’ development. The author applies the correlational research design, which is defined by the goal of research and specificity of the sampling. The survey involved 34 students (18 boys and 16 girls) of the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Ural Federal University aged 18-22 (M=18.3 3 SD=0.79). The article employs the psychodiagnostic questionnaires: Aizenka EPI test; short version of the “Dark Triad of Personality” scale adapted by M. S. Egorova and others; characterological questionnaire by G. Schmishek, “Rational-experiential” questionnaire by S. Epstein adapted by T. V. Kornilova, A. Y. Razvalyaeva; Mann-Whitney U-test, Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. The following gender differences are revealed: for the female students, cognitive and personal characteristics are generally more interrelated, while the pronounced affective personality traits testify to the possible tension in social communication; male students demonstrated greater proneness to rational processing of information and formation of engineering skills, while weakness of integration of the inner and outer Self, which may increase narcissistic traits, reduce self-criticism, and cause difficulties in establishment and maintenance of social contacts. The acquired results empirically  prove the importance of socio-psychological competence, and allow differentiating the technologies of its formation in the educational process.

The development of higher vocational education in Russia today is oriented towards the process of harmonization of personal and professional development of students. The issue is focused on three different perspectives: pedagogical activity of lecturers in higher vocational institutions, psychological/pedagogical research, and the student?s professional and personal development. The goal to train highly-qualified specialists with versatile personalities at the institutions of higher education depends not only on the applied theoretic/methodological basis, but also on the knowledge of the student?s personality. The first step in the process of planning and realization of the above mentioned educational goal is to provide adequate pedagogical conditions, aimed towards establishing methodological and theoretical bases closer to practice, i.e. the study and implementation of pedagogical personality-oriented technology. This can contribute to the creation of innovative projects and programs for training highly-qualified specialists. Theoretical/methodological and practice-oriented pedagogical conditions are selected and described on the basis of a systematic analysis of the educational process. The essential aspects of these conditions lie in defining appropriate methods for the realization of the educational process for each particular situation. Such methods contribute to the actualization of the students? potentials and enable their self-realization. The presented principles for the development of a personality-oriented educational process are essential for enabling professional development of future specialists.
