The article considers the main approaches to the problem of stress resistance of students in higher education institutions of Ukraine. It is determined that a number of scientists consider stress resistance as a property of the individual that determines its effective activity, and others as cognitively conditioned mechanisms for overcoming stress. It is noted that in psychological science there are other views on the stress resistance of the individual, but when studying the stress resistance of students in the educational process of higher education, it is advisable to use the above approaches. Studies suggest that most students have low levels of psychological stress, mental stress and medium, high levels of resilience.

Current trends in the development of the education sector require significant changes in approaches, methods, techniques and tasks of training. The challenges that arise need to be addressed, which will make it possible to increase the competitiveness of higher education seekers after their graduation, and, as a consequence, to improve the competitiveness of the higher education institution itself. The tasks that arise are: a change in the approach to the educational process of research and teaching staff, which must consist in the interest of teachers themselves to improve the quality of educational services they provide; a change in the approach to the educational process of learners – students, listeners, cadets, etc. – that is, it is necessary to transform those who are taught into those who learn; definition of criteria for the effectiveness of education, which is obviously not only in achieving program learning outcomes. The main criteria of efficiency of educational activity are formulated in the article. These criteria are obviously not only the amount and strength of knowledge and skills, competencies and program learning outcomes. Using only such criteria, it is impossible to fully assess the current requirements for the effectiveness of education. In the conditions of market relations, economic crisis, global mental restructuring, the main criterion for the effectiveness of training of the specialist is the ability to employ him in various positions after graduation, and possibly during training. What is more important is the ability of the job seeker to self-improve and master various competencies when changing functional responsibilities. That is, a higher education student must have a wide range of competencies, not only deep ones, which will enable him to develop under certain conditions in the performance of functional duties. Such tasks make it possible to solve the use of elements of dual education, distance technology using modern technological solutions and motivation of participants in the educational process to self-development. The article concludes that the mutual combination of dual education with distance learning technologies should ultimately solve the urgent problem of training an experienced specialist with a high level of competence who will be able to perform production tasks without additional internship or training after graduation.

Stakeholders noted an insufficient level of self-management skills, which should be noted by the organizers of industrial practice.The purpose of the article is to substantiate the significant contribution of industrial practice in the formation of professionalism of future teachers.Research methods. During the study of the organization of psychological and pedagogical practice we used such general scientific methods as theoretical, empirical (analysis, synthesis, observation, comparison, systematization, generalization).Key words: psychological and pedagogical component of educational process, pedagogical (production) practice, influence of practice on quality of future profession. Важливою складовою частиною освітнього процесу в закладах вищої освіти є практична підготов-ка студентів, зокрема проходження виробничої педагогічної практики, яка є обов’язковим компонентом і результатом опанування психолого-педагогічної складової частини підготовки здобувачів вищої освіти.У роботі представлено аналітичні матеріали організації виробничої (педагогічної) практики. Наведено аргументи доцільності ефективних способів формування конкурентоздатності майбутніх учителів в умовах шкільної практики. Під час формування практичних навичок майбутні фахівці набувають досвід роботи з учнями, педагогічним колективом, батьками. Уміння виявляти гострі питання, організовувати корекційні заняття з проблем виховання учнів, виступати в ролі класного керівника для майбутніх учителів є важливим аспектом становлення професіонала.Актуальність висунутої проблеми в першу чергу визначається завданням реформування змісту та форм навчання майбутніх учителів, що потребує внесення відповідних корективів у процес опанування практичними професійними компетентностями.Авторами наведено зауваження стейкхолдерів, які проаналізовано та зроблено відповідні висновки. Зокрема, введення в навчальні плани освітньої компоненти «Теорія та методика виховної роботи в закладах освіти». Практика проведення виробничої (педагогічної) практики засвідчує, що якісні показники результативності значно зростають відповідно до успішності здобувачів вищої освіти в самореалізації під час практики. Серед провідних компетентностей, які формуються під час практики, є вироблення умінь здійснювати аналіз виховних заходів, навичок самоконтролю й самооцінки процесу і результату педагогічної діяльності та умінь аналізувати труднощі, які виникають у педагогічній діяльності й вирішувати їх. Стейкхолдерами відмічено недостатній рівень сформованості навичок само менеджменту, на що слід звертати увагу організаторам виробничої практики. Метою статті статі є обґрунтування вагомого внеску виробничої практики у становлення професіоналізму майбутніх учителів.Методи дослідження. Під час вивчення питання організації психолого-педагогічної практики нами використані теоретичні та емпіричні загальнонаукові методи (аналіз, синтез, спостереження, порівняння, систематизація, узагальнення). Ключові слова: психолого-педагогічна складова частина освітнього процесу, педагогічна (виробнича) практика, вплив практики на якість майбутньої професії.
