The article analyzes the methods and means of teaching that are used in the practice of training future engineer-programmers, the methods of their use in the process of formation of students competence in the field of object-oriented development. For example, the use of electronic teaching aids, taking into account the individual educational needs of students. These can be environments that implement the method of visualizing the concepts of OOP, simulators, with which you can organize an independent training with automatic checking of results, etc. Another approach is to consistently enhance the role of interactive learning methods that encourage students to independently formulate conclusions, apply existing knowledge and find new ones. The directions of further research, which consist in the development of a system of methods and teaching methods, adapted to the features of object-oriented programming as a subject of study in institutions of higher education, are determined.

Anchor Institution

Place-based initiatives, such as the federal Promise Neighborhoods grant, attempt to coordinate interventions, supports, and services with a myriad of organizations to targeted communities. Although Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs), inclusive of academic medical institutions, are among the most overall researched anchor institution, Non-Institutions of Higher Education (NIHEs) have led more Promise Neighborhood grants since the inception of the program in 2010. Therefore, this study compared the revitalization efforts proposed by IHEs ( n = 5) and NIHE ( n = 5) in their applications for Promise Neighborhoods grants awarded between 2016 and 2018. Although similarities existed within and across the applications from NIHEs and IHEs, namely focused on improving academics and health/wellness, the specific interventions, supports, and services proposed by each lead institution largely reflected the individual needs of the targeted communities. The findings from this study illustrate how IHEs and NIHEs are similarly positioned to effectuate change within their communities. Implementing place-based initiatives requires anchor institutions to allocate considerable time and resources in order to adapt to the current needs of the community in real time. Therefore, future lead agents of Promise Neighborhoods should seek to promote an environment that fosters on-going collaboration and mutual trust across and within multiple stakeholders, while also exploring sustainability efforts to extend gains made beyond the duration of the grant.

The scientific achievements of leading scientists on the selected theme are analyzed and leading ideas, concepts, and main definitions of the research are identified in the article. The creation of proper psycho-didactic conditions in institutions of higher education, which serve as a basis for the formation of professionally significant competences, the development of personal creative potential and active public position in future practical psychologists, is updated. It is argumented that the educational system built on the conceptual foundations of professional training makes it possible to effectively content the educational disciplines, and therefore effective fundamental knowledge, professional-oriented skills, advanced skills, professional norms and values, which have the highest degree of generalization of social phenomena and processes. It is proved that the concept of the study of practical psychology combines professional methodological, philosophical and general scientific principles and scientific-methodological approaches, which are directed at the revealing future professional activity. The outlined conceptual foundations of professional training allow us to modify the educational process in higher education according to the individual needs of future practical psychologists. The methodological analysis of educational phenomenon of practical psychology in institutions of higher education on four basic levels is offered: philosophical-theoretical (evolutionary-theoretical formation of the specialist and his or her effective functioning), methodological (formation of the system of world-view and semantic individual formations for realization of individual’s educational skills and abilities), specific-scientific (acquisition of fundamental knowledge about professional activities) and technological (effective use of methods and techniques of research for acquisition of true empirical knowledge). The conclusion about the importance of outlining of conceptual foundations in the system of professional training of future practical psychologists is made.

Ongoing efforts to strengthen internationalization have increased the numbers of international students in institutions of higher learning. Such inflows will clearly place local institutions on par with many of their international counterparts. This paper explores the significance of higher education’s internationalization with regard to leadership competencies and systems management. The objective is to examine a wide range of priorities that qualify a successful leader as well as an effective ‘systems profile’ for the internationalization of higher education and its profile on the internationalization of Iranian higher education. The authors analyze differences between leaders and managers as their core focus. Required criteria for effective leaders and team management are discussed with a specific view towards the internationalization of higher education. A qualitative approach applies and findings demonstrate how both leadership’s and management’s contributions and skills combine to accomplish the task. As a detailed synopsis, this paper provides prime incentive for future investigations of educational enterprises. It presents a substantiated framework for the systematic development of prudent internationalized institutions of higher education, particularly in Iran.

The book chapter introduces the research findings on the application of teaching methods in higher education in Slovenia that positively affect the process of developing students' transversal competences. The goal of the research was to explore the teaching methods that should be applied in the process of improving transversal competences of students in higher education, from two perspectives: developing students' transversal competences at institutions of higher education and demands of the labour market regarding the required qualifications of graduates. Namely, contemporary business practice recognises transversal competences as increasingly important, due to their impact on innovation and development of society and economy. Higher education institutions have important role when diminishing mismatches between students' competences and applicable requirements of the labour market.

The article introduces the developed 3D mapping of digital competency. The necessity of radical changes aimed at improving the quality and competitiveness of education, changing the role of scientific and pedagogical staff in Ukraine in accordance with world requirements is substantiated. The analysis of the state policy and regulatory framework in the field of digital skills and competencies in Ukraine, research on information and communication competency in the European educational space, in particular UNESCO recommendations, the digital competency framework for citizens DigComp 2.0 and the digital competency framework for educators DigCompEdu, requirements for digital literacy in the United States, in particular the standards of the International Society of Technology in Education (ISTE), as well as development of digital competency in Ukraine. As a result of the analysis of these documents, questionnaires were developed for three groups of respondents – pedagogical staff and students of institutions of higher education and teachers of general secondary education institutions - and questionnaires were conducted in six Ukrainian universities within the framework of the international project Erasmus + MoPED. The developed 3D mapping reflects the trends of understanding by pedagogical staff and students of institutions of higher education and teachers of secondary education institutions of the main modern educational trends, the use of innovative pedagogical technologies and digital instruments in the educational process. The attitude of the three groups of respondents to the actual educational trends, innovative pedagogical technologies and the level of interest in mastering digital tools and their ability to use them effectively in the educational process according to the results of the questionnaire has been highlighted, which made it possible to compare the attitude of pedagogical staff of institutions of higher education, teachers and students to the above categories at the present stage.

The Colibri project partners started out in 2014 to make an Erasmus+ strategic partnership project titled “Collaboration and Innovation for Better, Personalized and IT-Supported Teaching” (Colibri) (http://www.tuhh.de/colibri/home.html). The overall idea is to implement new and innovative teaching methods with students from different universities for needs and challenges faced in higher education in general and within the combination of the ICT domain and entrepreneurship in particular. Erasmus+ funds the Colibri project. A course is developed between seven universities, based on a variety of rich and digital content: Videos, quizzes, articles to read, assignments, etc. In addition to making it all available on online platforms, we are also experimenting with making it available offline as e-books. This has several advantages, e.g. it can be accessed offline, and it is not depending on platforms that can host it. Another interesting potential of e-books is that they can be generated to suit the needs of the individual learner.

It is generally accepted that there are differences in the way children and adults learn. Pedagogical philosophies and practices about classroom instruction, activities, and the roles of both the educator and learner are typically associated with primary and secondary education. The concept of andragogy, however, deals with the art and science of the adult learner. The andragogical classroom looks quite different than the pedagogical, and features more student-centered instruction, self-directed learning, and emphasis on the needs of the individual learner. Many adult learners are familiar with the pedagogical approaches used in primary and secondary education. Those learners may find principles of pedagogy employed in higher education as well, which may not be effective. Is a pedagogical approach appropriate in higher education? What role does content play in pedagogical versus andragogical decisions? Most importantly, what approach results in student learning? Using the information technology classroom as an example, pedagogical and andragogical approaches to instruction are compared, and strategies for transitioning from pedagogical to andragogical approaches are illustrated. An empirical research study on preferred ways of learning is also included in this chapter. While the examples discussed in this chapter relate to the information technology classroom, the material presented is applicable in a variety of learning situations.
