The article reveals the course of diagnosis of health competence of a future biology teacher. The complexity and structure of the studied phenomenon were revealed under such criterions: motivational-value (motives, needs, value orientations), cognitive-informational (mastery of health-preserving knowledge and skills), practical-activity (health-preserving skills) criteria. Experimental work was carried out in two stages: ascertaining and forming. At the ascertaining stage the organization of  educational process of future biology teachers was comprehensively investigated. The initial low level of health competence of future biology teachers was determined, which showed no significant difference between the levels of health competence of future biology teachers according to motivational-value, cognitive-informational, practical-activity criteria. According to the results of the ascertaining stage of the research, a formative experiment was carried out, which proved the existence of a high level of health competence of future biology teachers on motivational-value, cognitive-informational, practical-activity criteria in experimental and average in control groups. It was found that the students of the experimental group showed higher levels of health competence. It is proved that in the experimental group of students there have been significant changes in the direction of increasing the level of health competence. The obtained data from the experimental group in comparison with the indicators from the control group indicate that the efficiency of using the whole set of proposed innovations is higher than using them separately, without further updating.

Against the background of the renewal of approaches to the development of geography education, the formation of national-patriotic consciousness among students, the introduction of pedagogical technologies into the educational process in order to study the characteristics of their native land, the question arises of the need to modernize the training of future geography teachers in local lore and tourism work. The purpose - to theoretically substantiate and experimentally check pedagogical conditions of preparation of future teachers of geography for local lore and tourist work on the basis of the competence approach. 236 students majoring in "Geography and Biology" with a bachelor's degree formed a control group and 232 - an experimental group. The pedagogical conditions of training of future teachers of geography for local lore and tourist work on the basis of the competence approach are defined and realized: stimulating positive motivation to study local lore material in the disciplines of the cycle of general (fundamental) and professional (scientific-subject) training and disciplines of additional specialization "Local lore and tourism work"; acquisition of knowledge, skills (competencies) for the implementation of local lore and tourism work through the optimization of student groups; intensification of the experience of local lore and tourism work during educational and pedagogical practices. The effectiveness of pedagogical conditions is proved by the results of the formative experiment: the number of students with a high level of local lore competence in the experimental group increased, while in the control group the same indicator did not increase significantly. The results of the study indicate a dynamic positive change in the formation of local lore competence of experimental groups under the influence of the proposed innovations.

Background Wayfinding has been adopted in several intense evacuation and navigation simulations; however, the use of biometric measurements for characterizing physiological outcomes has been somewhat overlooked and applied only under limited laboratory conditions. Methods Twenty-four participants took part in a virtual reality (VR) experiment using a wayfinding installation with the Oculus Rift S head-mounted display (HMD). They were immersed in a simulation of a burning underground parking lot and tasked to navigate to the exit. The purpose of this research was to investigate the high-level effect of wayfinding assistive lights on behavioral, physiological, and psychological outcomes. Participants were split into two groups: the control group was exposed to a scene without assistive lights, and the experimental group was exposed to the same scene with assistive lights. Results Results indicate there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in traveled distance, pauses, turns, or game completion time. Curiously, differences between the two groups in heart rate (HR) outcomes were found to be statistically significant, with subjects in the control group displaying an increasing HR trend during simulation. Conclusions This finding, in accordance with previous studies that have shown the efficacy of landmarks and wayfinding affordances in reducing cognitive demands, suggests that assistive lights might contribute to improved brain wiring connectivity during the game. We discuss these findings in the context of a rich wayfinding affordances literature.

The article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at determining the most effective play therapy technique for the psychological correction of a high level of anxiety, as a leading element of the structure of the psychological safety of the personality of primary schoolchildren during the period of their adaptation to school education. Recently, the problem of psychologi-cal safety of the personality of students has been in the area of increased attention. There is more and more scientific research aimed at studying various aspects of this phenomenon. One of these aspects is to ensure the psychological safety of the individual in different periods of training. The most psychologically difficult period is the period of adaptation of the child to the educational process. The presented article is devoted to the study of this aspect. Four hundred first-graders with a high level of anxiety, which was determined during the control diagnostics, took part in the work. The work used empirical methods and methods of mathematical statistics. At the formative stage of the work, all first-graders were divided into four groups: con-trol and three experimental. In each of the experimental groups with children, psychological correction of one of the play therapy techniques was carried out: non-directive, directive, and integrative, respectively. Upon completion of the formative stage of the study, a control diagno-sis of the level of anxiety in first-graders in the control and all experimental groups was carried out. The results of studying the dynamics of the level of anxiety as a leading element of the struc-ture of the psychological safety of a person after psychological correction made it possible to identify the most effective techniques of the method of play therapy. The data obtained allow us to speak about the presence of statistically significant differences in the experimental group, where play therapy of the integrative type was used. The results of the level of anxiety in first-graders in the experimental group, where psychological correction was carried out by the method of non-directive play therapy, demonstrate less significant differences. The level of anxi-ety in first-graders in the experimental group, where the method of directive play therapy was used, did not statistically significantly differ from the data of students in the control group, where psychological correction was not carried out.

This study investigated the effects of a comprehensive musicianship approach as compared to a performance-oriented approach to the instruction of beginning band students at the junior high level. In the comprehensive musicianship approach (experimental group) the students experienced an in-depth study of several of the elements of music as well as form, composition, and improvisation. Students in the performance-oriented approach (control] group) were taught according to the band method in use. A pretest-posttest design with the teachers nested within the treatment levels as well as a performance posttest specially] designed for the study were used to provide data. The resulting effects of the two approaches on the dependent variables revealed significant differences in the posttest scores in the areas of interval, meter, major-minor mode, and auditory-visual discrimination. All significant differences favored the experimental group. There was no significant difference in the performance test. This evidence suggested that members of both groups performed equally well.

The article is devoted to revision of a problem of formation of the emotional-volitional culture of future policemen in the course of vocational training. It is predetermined by the increase of intensity and force of stressful factors which influence negatively on their mentality, moral and physical state during performance of professional duties. At the stage of theoretical development of a problem was made a hypothesis that formation of emotional-volitional culture of future policemen will be effective if in the course of their vocational training provide the following issues: 1) development of resistant motivation in cadets to mastering emotional-volitional culture as professionally significant quality; 2) application of pedagogical tools in educational process (forms, methods, means) which requires demonstration of emotions and volitional qualities of the personality; 3) stimulation of cadets to self-improvement of emotional-volitional culture. For testing the made hypothesis were used the following methods: theoretical (philosophical, psychological and pedagogical analysis with the purpose of conceptual construct determination and grounds of pedagogical conditions of formation of emotional-volitional culture of future policemen); empirical (questioning, testing, conversations, polls, pedagogical experiment); mathematical statistics (arithmetic mean of , Pearson criterion χ?). 358 cadets from Kharkiv National University ofInternal Affairsparticipated in a research. They formed the experimental group (180 persons) and the control group (178 persons).Results. The efficiency of pedagogical conditions implementation of formation of the emotional-volitional culture of future policemen in the course of vocational training was proved during the experimental work which included classes, extracurricular educational activities, in particular, the educational club «Fan of extreme» and also practical training of cadets. In a general number of cadets with the high level of formation of emotional-volitional culture in the experimental group increased by 30% whereas in a control group the appropriate increase was only 12%. At the same time, the number of cadets with the low level of formation of emotional-volitional culture decreased in the experimental group by 24%, in control group by 18%.Conclusions. Defined pedagogical conditions of formation of the emotional-volitional culture of future policemen were checked by scientific experiment and could be realized in the course of vocational training at the higher education establishments of Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.

The current study aimed at investigating the effect of teaching using the Internet Web on the first grade secondary students’ achievement in Physics and their attitudes towards it. The experimental method was employed by using the two-group pre-post quasi-experimental design to answer the aforementioned questions. The sample consisted of (82) first grade secondary students enrolled in two sections which were randomly selected from all first grade secondary sections at Abhor educational complex in Jeddah province in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia using the cluster random sampling technique, where the two sections were randomly assigned into the two groups. The students were distributed evenly by the two groups such as (41) students in each group, where the students in the experimental group were taught using the Internet, while the students in the control group were taught using the traditional method. For the purposes of data collection, two equivalent forms of an achievement test have been developed in order to measure the first three levels (remembering, understanding, and application) of the cognitive domain in the “movement representation” unit within the physics curriculum being taught to the first grade secondary school students in the academic year 2013/2014 H in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Each form consisted of (35) multiple-choice questions with four alternatives. On the other hand, a pre-developed valid and reliable attitude scale towards physics in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was used. The results of the study revealed a statistically significant difference (α = 0.05) between the achievement post-test mean scores of the experimental and control groups for the favor of the experimental group who was taught using the educational site, which was designed and set up on the Internet Web. Similarly, the results revealed a statistically significant difference (α = 0.05) between the attitudes towards Physics post-test mean scores of both groups in favor of the experimental group. In light of the findings of the study, the researcher recommends conducting further studies on the benefits of using the Internet Web in the educational process in general and in distance learning in particular.

Determining the psychological conditions that influence the content of professional consciousness of students is important for understanding the overall effectiveness of future specialists in carrying out their relevant professional activities. One such condition was the Integrative Program of Psychosemantic Content-forming of the Professional Consciousness of Future Philologists, developed and tested by us. The goal of the study is to experimentally test the effectiveness of the Integrative Program of Psychosemantic Content-forming of the Professional Consciousness of Future Philologists within the conditions of a formative experiment. The program was tested on a sample of students (experimental group – 36 people, control group – 30 people aged 17-19, all first-year students of philological specialties aged 17-19). Considering the number of male and female students within the group, gender criteria were not used as a basis for sampling. Methods. The methods of semantic differential (SD) and “Diagnosis of the Reflexivity Level” (by A.V. Karpov) were used to determine the level of dynamics in the content of professional consciousness before and after the formative influence. Results. Initially, the dynamics of the level of reflexivity in future philologists were revealed in the control and experimental groups, before and after the formative experiment. Following the participation in the Program, a number of positive qualitative changes were detected in two-thirds of the students of the experimental group. Comparison of the data gathered during the initial and repeated measurements according to the Mann–Whitney U-test revealed a statistically significant difference (ρ <0.01), which favors the tested Program. Additionally, the semantics of fulfilling of the factors the “world of philology” concept were evaluated using the method of semantic differential. The world of philology had becоme “bigger”, more “active”, “joyful”, “relaxed”, “safe”, “difficult” and “masculine”, while being less “fast”, “new”, “deceptive”, “chaotic” and “restrained” after the formative influence. Comparisons before and after the formative influence revealed significant shifts in the semantics of factors which reflect the tendency to move away from anxiously indeterminate characteristics – towards the characteristics that indicate greater simplicity, certainty, clarity and positive emotionality of the world of philology. Conclusions. Statistical comparison of the experimental group indicators before and after the formative influence suggests that the application of the Program is effective for the formation of professional consciousness of future philologists.
