The article presents a structural description of the functioning of the regional information and communication system “Student and Labor” (SAL). This system is aimed at identifying and developing creatively gifted youth in the field of science, techniques and technology and is focused on the gradual involvement of university students in real work and interaction with leading enterprises in the region. The first cycle of the SAL system functioning is described, which has a complete character and has already led to a concrete result. The bank of information about the leading enterprises of the region that took part at the initial stage of the functioning of the SAL system were formed as well as the bank of 150 themes of scientific research for student projects, which were proposed by the enterprises themselves. All projects are focused on the practical significance of research for the enterprises themselves, as well as for students, their supervisors from universities and scientific consultants from enterprises that have embarked on joint research activities, which at the first stages are mostly of informational and educational nature. The Union of Employers of the Samara Region and the Council of Rectors of Universities in the Samara region are already taking the necessary measures to implement the described cycle of the functioning of the system SAL in the current academic year.

The article continues the description of the functioning of the typical regional information and communication system “Student and Labor” (SAL), begun by the authors in No. 8-2020 of the “Informatics and Education” journal. This system is aimed at identifying and developing university students who are creatively gifted in the field of science, techniques and technology in the process of their gradual involvement in real labor activity in cooperation with the leading enterprises in the region. The algorithm of functioning and the organizational structure of the “Student and Labor” system, informational, scientific, methodological and motivational aspects of interaction between students and enterprises on the basis of continuous measurement of the index of the prospects of interaction between a student and an enterprise are considered in detail. This index includes 10 components, the main of which is the creative index of research works / projects carried out by the student, taking into account the interests of the enterprise. In turn, the creative index is calculated on the basis of a multi-criteria assessment of a work / project according to 15 particular criteria. “Convolution” into scalar values of individual components and criteria of the index of the prospects of the student’s interaction with the enterprise and the creative index of the work / project is carried out in the most objective way using the so-called universal coefficients of importance.

AbstractScholars have widely recognised the importance of academic relationships between students at the university. While much of the past research has focused on studying their influence on different aspects such as the students’ academic performance or their emotional stability, less is known about their dynamics and the factors that influence the formation and dissolution of linkages between university students in academic networks. In this paper, we try to shed light on this issue by exploring through stochastic actor-oriented models and student-level data the influence that a set of proximity factors may have on formation of these relationships over the entire period in which students are enrolled at the university. Our findings confirm that the establishment of academic relationships is derived, in part, from a wide range of proximity dimensions of a social, personal, geographical, cultural and academic nature. Furthermore, and unlike previous studies, this research also empirically confirms that the specific stage in which the student is at the university determines the influence of these proximity factors on the dynamics of academic relationships. In this regard, beyond cultural and geographic proximities that only influence the first years at the university, students shape their relationships as they progress in their studies from similarities in more strategic aspects such as academic and personal closeness. These results may have significant implications for both academic research and university policies.

The purpose of this study was to examine the cross-cultural differences in vocational identity between American and Korean university students using the Vocational Identity Status Assessment. A total of 881 university students in both the United States and South Korea were sampled in this study assessing vocational identity. We compared means of latent variables (six dimensions of Vocational Identity Status Assessment in the present study) using latent mean analysis. The results indicated that Korean students showed higher scores on Career Self-doubt and Career Flexibility, whereas American students showed higher scores on In-breadth Exploration, In-depth Exploration, Commitment Making, and Commitment Identification. These results indicated the components of vocational identity that should be considered while providing career guidance to college students from diverse backgrounds. Implications for understanding the cultural differences of college students’ vocational identity and the need for conducting cross-cultural comparison studies to provide insights about the vocational development of college students in cross-cultural settings are discussed.

Introduction: the article deals with current problems of teaching talent and teaching intelligence. A review of the main foreign psychological concepts of giftedness is presented (the concept of “intellectual threshold” is a triad concept of giftedness, a five-factor psychosocial model of giftedness, etc.), different approaches to understanding the structure of this phenomenon are analyzed. The theoretical concepts of giftedness of domestic researchers are discussed in the context of the psychology of intelligence and the psychology of creativity: the working concept of giftedness, the theory of intellectual giftedness, the dynamic theory of giftedness, etc.). The national concept of teaching talent of schoolchildren is analyzed from the point of view of the authors' understanding of the psychological content and dynamics of the development of teaching talent in the age aspect. Materials and methods: the main methods of the research are the analysis of the literature, formalization and modeling, psychological and pedagogical design of theoretical and applied approaches to the description of the phenomenons of teaching talent and teaching intelligence.Results: the author's understanding of teaching talent as a psychological prerequisite for the development of pedagogical abilities and teaching intelligence is proposed, its structure and content of its components are determined. The variable range of manifestations of universal structural components (creativity, activity, level of development of cognitive processes) and special structural components (pedagogical, communicative and organizational tendencies, artistry, speech abilities, empathy, interest in teaching activity) teaching talent are described. A brief overview of the key modern psychological theories of intelligence, including plural, emotional, creative, practical intelligence is given. Some domestic studies are analyzed, in particular the structural-dynamic theory of social intelligence. A teaching intelligence construct is introduced that meets the modern principles of scientific knowledge: inter-paradigm, the search for new generalizations based on the study of the history of the problem and the requirements of new approaches. The author's understanding of teaching intelligence as an integrative individual psychological personality characteristic is formulated. A five-factor structure of teaching intellect is presented, including cognitive intelligence, creative intelligence, practical intelligence, emotional and social intelligence.Discussion and Conclusions: the definition of theoretical and applied approaches to describing the phenomenons of teaching talent and teaching intelligence is the basis for developing the conceptual framework for identifying and accompanying pedagogically gifted youth. The prospect of the study is the development of instruments for diagnosing and monitoring the effectiveness of work on supporting pedagogically gifted young people at all stages of the life cycle of the teaching profession. The article is addressed to a wide range of specialists involved in the work of supporting gifted children and pedagogically gifted youth - schoolchildren, applicants, students and graduates of pedagogical universities.

Higher education is supposed to create open-minded graduates within social topics. General assump-tions about educational science transfer a quiet sensitive picture across in particular gender issues and the awareness of gender inequalities. In contrast to other disciplines, scientific debates about gender issues do have a long tradition, even if not always thematised as such. The curriculum of educational science offers a wide range of so called gender-seminars, where students can spend time on gender related topics and the awareness of gender equality. Women are overrepresented among educational students and regarding to a “new deal for young women” (McRobbie 2009), which may influence the way young woman and men think about the importance of gender-related topics, the question about the relevance of gender and gender issues for the discipline of educational studies often remains vague. According to this following research questions arose: how do students of educational science discuss gender issues, how does a de-articulation form gender issues, and how is rhetoric equality produced among university students of educational science. The data are based on a qualitative empirical survey composed of four group discussions carried out with 14 university students of educational studies from German speaking universities. The aim was to reconstruct and analyse both - an individual and collective - understanding or interpretations regarding gender issues. The findings of this study have revealed that the reflection of gender issues and talking about gender is somehow caught between gender equality, difference and usurpation. This takes into account the mechanisms and masking effects of neoliberal activation. Deliberations about how educational studies can handle these challenges should imply a gender-reflected understanding of learning and educational processes. Key words: gender, de-examination of gender issues, higher education, university students
