Purpose of research. In conditions of digitalization of society and economy, information is considered to be the main value, not the material wealth. That is, information and information technologies are of particular importance today. Since the term “informatics" means both information science and the whole field related to the use of information and communication technologies, it can be concluded that the importance of students’ training in informatics, regardless of the specialty chosen, is increased. The main aim of the work is to identify the most effective technology of students’ training in informatics at the technical university, as representatives of the digital generation and to organize from these positions the methodology of training in informatics in the digital educational environment.Materials and methods. This article analyzed two models of training: face-to-face and electronic training revealed their positive and negative aspects. It has been established that in modern conditions of digitalization of society and education it is possible to optimally combine strengths of traditional education with advantages of electronic training technologies. The blended technology of the informatics training of the technical university students is offered as a harmonious combination of face-to-face and electronic training technologies. The use of blended learning technology in the informatics training leads to a change of the lecturer role and a reorganization of both the content of the discipline and the methods and means of learning. The reference points are the requirements for the specialists of digital society, the peculiarities of the digital generation of students and the principles of digital didactics, which ensure the formation and development of the competences required today.Results. The stages of design of the course “Informatics" on the blended training technology are described: design of the results of training on discipline; development of evaluation activities; development of a system of interaction between participants. According to the principles of the personal-centered approach to training, the content of the discipline has a modular structure. This allows the student to create their individual trajectory of informatics learning. In order to take into account the peculiarities of perception of information by representatives of the digital generation, the content of the course is presented using traditional methodology and nonlinear technologies of informatics training: concentric, parallel and cognitive; lectures are given as text, presentations and infographics; for each module a mental map is created, allowing to cover the content of the module in its entirety and study it not sequentially, but at its own discretion. Each module specifies the respective objectives and expected results of the training with an indication of the level on Bloom taxonomy. Control questions for theoretical material, execution of practical tasks, intermediate and final testing by module are identified as evaluation measures.Conclusion. It is shown that training in informatics according to a blended model provides an increase in the level of students ’ motivation to learn and the level of theoretical material understanding; increasing their level of activity in the informatics learning in the information and educational environment and forming communication competences; students mastering new activities; flexibility, mobility, and learning availability. All this in the end contributes to the formation of competences required for successful professional activity in modern conditions.

Readiness To Learn

Modern theories of foreign language teaching are getting developed. The constant society digitalization influences it. Generation Z students closely associate their lives with technology. Moreover, teachers must find ways to apply effectively information and communication technologies in the learning process. In our opinion, one of the ways is the concept of blended learning. It implies the optimal combination of traditional pedagogical technologies and distance, online learning. The purpose of our research is to examine the effectiveness of the concept of blended learning in the process of learning a foreign language for students of non-philological majors. For this purpose, we conducted a pedagogical experiment. It assumes the introduction of the concept of blended learning in the educational process of higher education. The research was carried out with Ukrainian students of non-philological majors during the study of English (offline and online). Also, international students who are studying Ukrainian as a foreign language were involved. Comparative analysis of students' readiness to learn using different blended learning tools was used. Methods of mathematical statistics (nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney criteria) were utilized to analyse and process the experimental data. The results of the study indicate the effectiveness of blended learning technology usage in the process of foreign language teaching. Nevertheless, they show that the proposed tools help students better master a foreign language. Besides, students are both in active learning and passively reinforcing their knowledge using digital technologies during education. The authors consider it indisputable that blended learning tools should be used to some extent for students of all majors. The authors understand that the proposed tools are not exhaustive and definitive. Their list should be extended, and the use of specific tools depends on the teacher, students, the course, and other factors.

The Health Care department specialities are regulated professions whose training programmes require the graduates to be competent in a number of issues and activities related to their work. The subject of their professional activity is the individual with their health-related conditions. Healthcare specialists draw conclusions in a variety of clinical situations and perform different healthcare procedures aiming to achieve prevention and recovery in a patient’s health. They have to establish a number of practical psychomotor skills in the field of compliant medical and healthcare handling, as well as communication skills for liaising with the patient and their relatives. In addition, the healthcare specialists have to learn how to overcome negative emotions, and to seek balance between the development of their technological knowledge and professional behavior. In the changing profile of healthcare trainees – nurses and midwives, there is a strongly-influenced tendency towards technological development and digital revolution. Video methods are developing educational technologies. They have their own place in the acquisition of healthcare patient-handling and communication skills when they are effectively included within the standard curriculum. This poses a challenge for the academic staff to draw up and provide educational tools and technologies that are liked, and match the students’ contemporary learning styles. It has become necessary for academic staff to withdraw the traditional didactic educational models and to adopt more constructive approaches for greater involvement and participation of the trainees in the educational process.The article justifies the necessity for optimizing education in the healthcare field through implementing e-learning within higher education. This need is driven by the ever-increasing inclusion of information technologies in healthcare, as well as in all other aspects of life. The design and development of e-learning technology and methodology in university contributes to solving great many pedagogical and psychological problems. Implementing information and communication technologies presents us with a new level of mediation for mental and communicative activities of both lecturers and students. Video education has been explored in the current scientific report and an educational cycle is presented in regard to the healthcare experts training. Implementation of social media and its inclusion within the educational process of both midwives and nurses are discussed. The necessity to include video tutorials in the educational process is justified. It is concluded the aforementioned are educational resources which should not be ignored but, on the contrary – they have to be used as complementary educational content within the contemporary education of healthcare experts.
