The article is devoted to the study of psychological factors that can influence upon personal motivation and readiness for charity of adolescent. The findings can help to increase the effectiveness of programs that involve young people in charity and identify the most effective methods to form prosocial behavior of young people aimed at helping and supporting others in the long run. The purpose of the article is to investigate the influence of personal, pedagogical and socio-psychological factors on the formation of young people's readiness for charitable activity. The author analyzed the potential positive consequences of prosocial activity for adolescents, identified the main motives of charity and the specific motivation of high school students, summarized information about the factors and mechanisms of involvement and formation of charitable readiness. Analysis of the data obtained in the empirical study of adolescents from two schools with different pedagogical environment and different levels of organization of school prosocial activity, allowed to identify a number of patterns that indicate the dominant factors in the formation of adolescents readiness for charity. We have found that altruism, empathy and the dominance of values of universalism, goodness and conformity are significant personal characteristics that determine the readiness for charitable activity. Significant personal factors are polymotivation (the combination of personal and social motives for charitable activities), a high level of involvement in such activities and the availability of certain experiences. We have found that the most important environments for development of charity readiness are the family and the school. The immediate environment (project team) and the authority of the mentor, the possibility of self-realization, the reach of the result, the opportunity to receive positive emotions, the level of responsibility play a significant role in increasing the level of involvement in school projects and programs. In a school where teachers attach great importance to the prosocial activity of students in the educational process, the impact of the school environment becomes major. It determines the readiness for further charity both with the family and as a part of extracurricular activities.

Algorithmic Thinking

The relevance of the chosen research topic is to highlight the issue related to the formation of algorithmic thinking in primary school students in computer science lessons. The aim of the article is to identify the role of computer science and mathematics in the formation of algorithmic thinking style. To achieve this goal, the following methods were used: analysis, comparison, observation, synthesis. Statistical data processing was also used. The article states that the basis for algorithmic thinking is the formation of mathematical competence of junior high school students. In computer science lessons, students apply the acquired knowledge of mathematics by practical methods. Therefore, the appropriate level of students’ knowledge of mathematics is important. The article presents a table of success levels in mathematics and computer science for third and fourth graders of one of the primary schools in Uzhhorod. The level of success in studying mathematics was compared with the level of success in studying computer science by third-graders and similarly by fourth-graders. When comparing the two empirical distributions, we used the two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov agreement criterion. We have shown that the selected general populations are stochastically equivalent. Comparing the results of educational achievements in computer science and mathematics of students of 3rd and 4th grades, we came to the conclusion that the formation of mathematical competence helps in solving problems in computer science lessons that require logical thinking and algorithmic skills. We believe that more attention should be paid to the study of the basics of programming in school, the development of logical and algorithmic thinking in mathematics and computer science, as well as in elective classes.

The article reveals the topical issue of forming creative activity of students. The aim of the work is to draw the attention of the pedagogical community to such an issue as the framing of learning, which involves a variety of forms and methods of organizing the educational process by means of updating the self-correction of students' knowledge. It is established that the formation of creative activity of high school students by means of framing should be carried out on the basis of personal orientation, competence approach. In addition to the general characteristics, the specifics of creating frames with slots are revealed. The research is based on scientific works, which reveals the formation of creative activity of the younger generation in the process of learning and education, didactic foundations of these processes. The main results of the work determine the modern conditions in which the theoretically substantiated process of framing learning works in order to form the creative activity of students. We pay attention to the fact that the creative activity of high school students is most successfully manifested during their homework, self-correction of knowledge in the classroom, during extracurricular activities. Thus, the foundation for the formation of creative activity of high school students is, first of all, the level of formation of elementary cognitive processes and creativity of thinking received by them. Having these prerequisites, the teacher directs the student to cognition, perception, assimilation of information; forms the ability to cooperate and the ability to orient and self-regulate, independence, freedom of thought. Keywords: learning framing, slots, creative activity of the student, self-correction, creativity, self-assessment, tasks, actualization of knowledge.

Motivation To Participate

The issue of education acquires new connotations in contemporary society, given by unprecedented changes in all areas of social life. The emphasis shifts from the informative to the formative. Education transcends the boundaries of the school curriculum and tends towards lifelong learning. A unitary curriculum can no longer respond to human diversity alone, and the goal of lifelong learning tends to become an indisputable reality. Thus, without denying the importance of curricular education, it becomes increasingly obvious that extracurricular education, i.e. that achieved beyond the educational process, has its role and place well established in shaping the personality of young people. Sociological research, conducted in four colleges in Bacau, Romania (National College "Vasile Alecsandri", Technical College of Communications "Nicolae Vasilescu-Karpen", National College "Ferdinand" and National College "Gheorghe Vrănceanu") during September - October 2020 on a sample of 210 people (130 high school students, 80 parents), aimed to identify the opinions of students and their parents on the main aspects of extracurricular activity: the degree of involvement of students in extracurricular activities; the level of partnership relationship of the school with the family in carrying out extracurricular activities; types of extracurricular activities; the ways of organizing them; the level of motivation to participate in extracurricular activities.

In this paper, we explore high school students? intrapersonal experiences regarding their leisure activities, and whether it is justified, on the basis of their perception, to make a distinction between active and passive leisure. The data were collected by 24-hour time diary method (description of experiences regarding the stated activities) and the thematic content analysis method was applied. The comments embedded in students? descriptions (unit of analysis) were classified into four categories: aims/importance of activities, mental effort, motivational value and experience of engagement. The sample of 922 high school students was structured by the region, age (I-IV grade) and type of school (grammar and vocational schools). As expected, extracurricular activities and hobbies are significantly more often described as mentally demanding and important for the development of competencies and identity, compared to passive leisure activities - watching entertainment shows and movies, reading for pleasure, listening to music and playing computer games. For these latter activities, there are significantly more positive comments on their motivational value. There is no significant difference regarding the experience of engagement, partly because of the unexpectedly large number of positive comments on watching entertainment shows and movies. The implications of these findings are discussed from the perspective of positive youth development.
