This article promotes a wider understanding of trauma-informed pedagogy for the higher education classroom, whether in-person or virtual, focusing on undergraduate and graduate teaching in religious studies and theological education. Trauma is not confined to individual experiences of single horrifying events—trauma can be collective (community-wide, e.g., COVID-19), epigenetic (inherited or intergenerational), social-cultural (e.g., racism), or vicarious. Drawing on religious education literature and recent insights from psychology, neuroscience, and public health studies, this article provides a shared basis for further development of trauma-informed pedagogy by religious and theological educators. A principle feature of this article is bibliographic, portraying the state of scholarship at the intersection of religious education and trauma and pointing to resources necessary for further development. It offers a brief survey of extant literature, presents a basic definition and description of trauma, introduces the features of a trauma-informed community approach, and discusses the core values guiding trauma-informed pedagogy. The article also explores religious aspects of trauma and discusses care for instructors, who deal with their own traumatic pasts as well as the secondary effects of encountering, teaching, and supporting traumatized individuals in the religious education classroom. This article concludes with a call for further research.

<p class="3">This article provides an overview of the current state of repositories of open educational resources (ROER) in higher education at international level. It analyses a series of educational indicators to determine whether ROER can meet the specific needs of the education context, and to clarify understanding of the reuse of open educational resources (OER) provided by ROER. The aim of the study is to assess ROER by combining these two perspectives, and to form a basis for discussion among the universities that are responsible for these repositories.</p><p class="3">The method was based on content analysis and consisted of two phases: an exploration of international sources, and an analysis of 110 ROER using the proposed set of indicators. The results focus on data from the analysis of ROER websites and some models of good practices. They are presented according to three core dimensions for evaluating ROER: general factors to establish types of ROER, a focus on drivers for OER reuse, and a focus on educational aspects.  It was found that most of the ROER that included one or more of the proposed reuse indicators were created exclusively for educational resources. Educational aspects are not yet firmly embedded into ROER. The few repositories that seem to have successfully included them are those that provide other educational metadata and use educational standards.</p>

The opinion and the current state of the application of mixed forms of teaching among the teachers of the department of computer technologies in the management and teaching of the Berdyansk State Pedagogical University have been studied. With this purpose, a questionnaire and an analysis of the results obtained were held. Considerable attention was paid to the study of the following issues: Is it appropriate to use mixed learning in the preparation of bachelors and masters? Do you use mixed learning in your professional activity? During which of your classes, do you often use distance learning platforms to organize mixed learning? Which distance platforms do you use during lectures? What kind of remote platforms do you use during laboratory tests? Which distance platforms do you use during practical classes? What are the main benefits of mixed learning can you mention? What are the main disadvantages of mixed learning? In the article a meaningful analysis of the results of the study was conducted. The obtained results are presented with the help of histograms and graphs on the basis of which the following conclusions have been made: currently mixed learning is rapidly developing and is popular among the target audience. Most often yogis are used in the learning process during laboratory work. The most commonly used remote LMS Moodle and Google services platforms were identified with a view to further development of methodological recommendations for their use by practitioners of higher education institutions. The advantages and disadvantages faced by teachers in their practical activities have been explored and they highlight the opportunity to teach a large number of students, provide a quality control and quickly obtain learning outcomes that significantly accelerates the process of learning. Among the disadvantages of possible technical difficulties in deficiencies attention should be paid to their prevention. On the basis of the accomplished research, it was concluded that the subject under investigation is relevant and needs further improvement.
