Formation and development of professional qualities of a person is a long and difficult process, which is divided into several levels of training, whereby achieving positive results at one level allows the transition to the next. First, a person gets an extensive database of knowledge, skills abilities at school, and this base helps him/her to determine his/her preferences and make a choice in favor of a certain profession. Then a person continues education for chosen profession in university, and then, after graduation, a person gets an opportunity to continue improving and self-educating in the chosen professional sphere. But all these levels of education are not possible to perform without the direct or indirect influence of the one who can teach, guide and even control the process of education. A person constantly interacts to some extent with a teacher, mentor, tutor and others while acquiring knowledge, forming skills and abilities. The modern generation is fundamentally different from the previous one, with different life approach and understanding of the world, as it lives in a hi-tech world of accessible information, virtual reality, social networks, online stores, smartphones and other gadgets. The boundaries between real and virtual worlds have almost been erased. Therefore, in order to increase the efficiency of learning and education processes in the new reality, a new approach, concepts and rules are needed, and consequently, new competencies that teacher should acquire. Taking into account the peculiarities of the term “competence” and also the fact that the field of teacher’s expertise is extensive and includes both educating and building students’ personality, there is a need to form an integrative competence of future teachers, which will provide them with essential assistance in their professional life. The paper formulates the definition of integrative competence; determines the place occupied by these competences in the hierarchy of competences; indicates the social and practical conditionality, significance of the competence, personal significance of the competence, competence indicators; gives a brief description of the fund of evaluation tools allowing to judge its formation.

The purpose of this research is to study the need for the students' communication activity component at the Pharmaceutical faculty of VSMU. Dual feature of the levels indicators dynamics in the need for communication is revealed. On the one hand, there is a tendency to reduce the average level in the need for communication and to increase its high level at the expense of girls. On the other hand, there is a fairly significant increase in the average level in the need for communication among young men against the background of an obvious predominance of the average level in the need for communication among the students of the entire sampling. The study allows us to state obvious influence of the informational educational environment at VSMU on the personal growth of students at the Pharmaceutical faculty, on the formation of their communicative competence as the most important component of the professional competence of future pharmacists. The results of the study can be used in the educational process of VSMU, in the activities of the social and pedagogical and psychological service, in the work of educators in academic groups and for tutors.

This paper describes the parochial predicament of the social sciences by looking at world sociology in its Janus-like face: on the one hand we focus on the intellectual, political, and sometimes even ethical compromises that social scientists in European semiperipheral countries forgo in order to gain acceptance and recognition in world sociology. On the other hand we show how these compromises paradoxically impoverish intellectual potentialities in the major centers of academic excellence too. In the analyses we focus on different interrelated facets of scholarly work where these paradoxes take shape: problem setting and conceptualization, the hierarchy of scholarly publications, the definition of excellence through citation patterns, scientific conferences, and lastly, funding schemes for research. We argue that the social and the political organization of the World System of Science jeopardizes free access to multiple and plural perspectives of the social. A potential source of ideas, theories, and paradigms is hampered by the hierarchical division of labor between scientists in the centers of science and their peers in semiperipheral countries, whose knowledge remains unutilized and sidelined.

Abstract The critical regime plays a primordial role in the study of gradually varying flows by classifying flow regimes and slopes. Through this work, a new approach is proposed to analyze critical flow regime in an egg-shaped channel. Based on both the definition of Froude number and Achour and Bedjaoui general discharge relationship, a relation between critical and normal depths is derived and then graphically represented for the particular case of a smooth channel characterized by a generating diameter equal to one meter. The results show the influence of the slope on the frequency of occurrence of the critical regime. At the same time and independently of the flow rate, a very advantageous approach for the calculation of the Froude number has been proposed. The study shows that there are six zones to differentiate the various flow states, namely: on the one hand for steep slopes two subcritical zones interspersed by a supercritical zone and on the other hand for mild slopes a zone corresponding to uniform flow, an area where the flow is probably gradually varied and finally an area where the flow is abruptly varied. Based on the specific energy equation, a validation process concluded that the proposed relationships were reliable.

Статья посвящена проблематике воспитания в современном профессиональном образова- нии: постановке целей и созданию условий для их достижения. Цель работы — первичный эмпирический анализ причин повышенного интереса к воспитательной деятельности в со- временной России со стороны различных субъектов. Выводы носят промежуточный характер и состоят в констатации задач предстоящего исследования. Теоретическая значимость рабо- ты состоит в обосновании тезиса о диалектическом единстве интенционального и экстенци- онального компонентов воспитания. Практическую ценность представляет характеристика особенностей современной цифровой эпохи, в рамках которой выстраивается воспитатель- ный процесс в СПО, и определение комплекса условий, при которых он становится успешным. В статье по-новому трактуются задачи воспитания и определяются пути их решения в кон- тексте социального договора, основными участниками которого выступают научно-педаго- гические и практические работники системы СПО, работодатели, государство, родительская общественность. Работа адресована федеральным и региональным органам власти в сфере образования, профессионально-педагогическому и научному сообществу СПО. The article is devoted to the problems of formative education in modern vocational education: setting goals and creating conditions for their achievement. The aim of the work is a primary empirical analysis of the reasons for the increased interest in educational activities in modern Russia on the part of various subjects. The conclusions are intermediate and consist in stating the objectives of the upcoming study. The work’s theoretical significance consists of the substantiation of the thesis about the dialectical unity of the intentional and extensional components of education. Of practical value is the characteristic of the features of the modern digital age, within which the educational process in the secondary school is built, and the definition of a set of conditions under which it becomes successful. The article interprets the tasks of education in a new way and defines how to solve them in the context of the social contract, the main participants of which are scientific, pedagogical and practical workers of the SVE system, employers, the state, and the parent community. The work is addressed to the federal and regional authorities in education, the professional-pedagogical and scientific community of SVE.

Abstract The paper focuses on a comparison between Lawson’s and Mead’s processual ontologies and more specifically on their conceptions of emergence. The first aim of the article is to highlight elements of similarity between their conceptions of social reality. It also aims to show, on the one hand, that Mead’s bio-social account of the emergent can help to interpret the dynamic process of emergence of both the social realm and agents’ identities (as described by Lawson) from a dynamic non-reductive naturalistic perspective; on the other hand, it shows how Lawson’s category of ‘social positioning’ can complement Mead’s ontogenetic explanation of changing social positions and the definition of ‘multiple selves’. By carefully considering the key elements of Lawson’s and Mead’s projects, it is, in fact, possible to understand better the meaning of a commitment to an updated processual ontology. In considering connections with classical pragmatic authors, it can be demonstrated that there are significant overlaps regarding the respective ways of considering the emergent. This offers a chance to understand more deeply how both pragmatism and Cambridge social ontology can together become part of the wider contemporary philosophical debate. In fact, Mead’s attempted synthesis between social and physical theories would help to highlight the common and complementary aspects linking what can be defined as his and Lawson’s ‘processual ontologies’.

Abstract At which level of analysis (descriptivist, empirical, epistemological), and along which perspective (sociological, linguistical, communicative), should we locate the distinctive criteria for the definition of translation? In other words, what are the necessary and sufficient conditions which constitute the object « translation,» exclusively this object and not any other object? This is the general question of this article. It will be developped in two steps. First, we shall try to demonstrate that the perspective adopted by translatology, in defining translation by its semantical and fonctional equivalence relation with a source text, is congenetically determined by the discursive exclusion of the theorisation of that which is the very condition of possibility of each translation: the disrupture and distancing by which humans structure their social relation. Consequently, it is by the critique of communication theory, where a large part of translatology has drawn its scientific foundations, that we can deliver sound arguments for the assessing of translation in the structure of social relations. A second step consists in the formulation of a working hypothesis: if translation may be caused by the social dialectics of distancing and negociation of meaning, it is not sufficiently specified by this logic. It could be hypothesized that translation finds its specificity in the hybridity of the linguistic referential relation it instaures with the mute universe to be conceptualized on the one hand, and with the source text to be reformulated on the other.

The social science and business literatures on procedural justice or fair process attest that improvements in procedural fairness can be expected to improve both a firm's performance and the commitment and trust of the individuals involved with it. This article examines the relevance of procedural justice for family business. When a family is an influential component of a particular business system, the application of justice is typically rendered more complex than might be the case for nonfamily firms. Different criteria (need, merit, and equality) guide the application of distributive justice among families, firms, and shareholders. This divergence in criterion also lies at the heart of many conflicts inside the family business. In this article, we argue that the application of procedural justice reduces occurrences of conflict and, in some cases, may eliminate conflict altogether. We propose a definition of fair process that extends and enriches the one existing in the literature. We offer five fundamental criteria essential to the effectiveness of fair process in family firms. We conclude with a series of case studies that illustrate typical questions faced inside family businesses. We show that a lack of fairness in the decision and managerial processes governing these businesses and their associated families is a source of conflict. We describe how increasing fair process practices improves the performance of these businesses while also increasing the satisfaction of those associated with them.

The author of the article focuses attention on the important functions of social work: development of social communication, prevention of interpersonal tensions, conflicts and strengthening of family ties In recent decades, the dramatic changes in socio-political and economic conditions of life of Russia’s society, the a turn to market relations have produced a negative impact on the development of the modern family. Along with the deepening of the spiritual world of the modern individual, one can observe degradation of the demographic situation, new challenges in educational process and a higher than ever before percentage of children with deviant behavior. That entails the necessity to prepare specialists with a well-developed communicative competence which lets them interact with risk-group families. The article provides a definition of the essence and contents of underprivileged family and risk-group family in modern conditions of society: a category of families which, owing to certain circumstances, is subject to negative external influence from society and its criminal elements. The author underlines the important role of the social worker in rendering assistance to such family.

In the context of the Federal State Educational Standard implementation, the need for changes in the content of the educational paradigm emerged. The need for effective teaching approaches capable of increasing the effectiveness of teaching a foreign language at a non-language university, has prompted researchers to study the possibility of blended learning as an effective approach that contributes to the development of technical specialties students’ readiness for blended learning, the formation of various skills, contributing to the successful mastering of a foreign language course. The purpose of this research is to study students' attitude toward the main characteristics of blended learning. To achieve this goal in NMSTU a study based on quantitative data was conducted, with thirty students as participants. The research was carried out on the basis of questionnaires. The authors of the article substantiate the need to introduce a new approach into the learning process, which, on the one hand, is innovative and, on the other, problematic, as it requires a deep analysis, evaluation, creation of practical methods for implementing and developing this type of learning. In this regard, the team of authors offers a discussion and scientific understanding of psychological and pedagogical concepts and phenomena associated with technological trends in the educational process, the design of new educational courses, and the effectiveness of blended learning.
