Introduction. The aim of the work is an empirical study of the problem of identifying and explaining the psychological consequences that appear during the complex introduction of computer teaching aids in the educational process. The investigated problem is relevant in theoretical and practical terms. Within the framework of this general problem, for the first time, a special class of determinants of pedagogical activity – metacognitive and metaregulatory factors – has been investigated. Materials and research methods. We used the most valid and reliable methods developed in modern metacognitivism – the method «Metacognitive Awareness Inventory» (G. Schraw, R. Dennison); MAI questionnaire (H. Everson); a method for diagnosing an individual measure of the development of reflexivity (A.V. Karpov, V.V. Ponomareva), as well as the author's methods for diagnosing an individual measure of the severity of meta-thinking, meta-memory and meta-decisions. Traditional methods of mathematical and statistical processing (ANOVA) were also used; methods based on the methodology of structural psychological analysis. 132 lecturers from the universities of Yaroslavl and Moscow took part in various stages of this study. Research results. It was established for the first time that this influence is fundamentally diversified, since its nature – measure and direction – is significantly different in relation to two categories of factors – metacognitive and metaregulatory. In relation to metacognitive factors, the influence was established for 5 out of 6 studied parameters, and for 4 of them it is statistically significant at a high level of significance – not lower than p <0.05. In relation to metaregulatory factors, the influence was not presented and the opposite tendency was established – with respect to 5 out of 6 studied parameters, there is an increase in the measure of their representation, which in 2 cases is statistically significant at the level of p <0.05. Discussion of results and conclusion. New data have been obtained that reveal and explain the general pattern, which consists in the existence of a significant determinative influence of computer teaching aids in professional educational activity on the nature and degree of representation in the structure of its psychological support of a number of important components of the metacognitive metaregulatory plan. The revealed influence is also fundamentally diversified, since its character – measure and direction – is significantly different in relation to the two indicated categories of factors – metacognitive and metaregulatory. As an integrative effect of the revealed patterns, there is a certain decrease in the degree of personality subjectivity in its implementation under the influence of the inclusion of computer teaching aids in the activity, which allows us to fix a previously undescribed phenomenon – the phenomenon of subjectivity reduction.

The article provides an overview of the social practices of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. The level of Adventist participation in educational, health, philanthropic and political activities is analyzed. It is determined that the educational activity of Adventists is based on the integration of Christian values into the educational process in order to educate a purposeful person who is able to serve God and society at a high level. Adventist medical and health activities are aimed at preventing physical illness, as it is believed that the disease is easier to prevent than to cure. Adventists practice charity through the officially established Adventist Relief and Development Agency, which believes that the Church’s assistance to society must meet not only the spiritual but also the physical needs of man. Adventist participation in politics is not approved, but it is not forbidden. This is due to the conflict and rivalry that arises in the political race, so it is desirable to use your talents in those areas that bring peace and good to society. It is stated that the central idea of the social teaching of the Seventh-day Adventist Church is the protection of freedom of conscience and the dignity of the human person. Thus, by putting the principles of social doctrine into practice, the Seventh-day Adventist church premises become the Church’s social laboratories, through which the faithful of this denomination achieve two goals. The first of them is aimed at spreading their own religious beliefs and teachings, and the second – following the example of Christ, who during his life on earth served the physical needs of society around him. As a result of the study, the document “Social Teaching of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Ukraine” aims to implement the Church’s two goals: educational and charitable, the implementation of which allows the denomination to positively represent themselves in Ukrainian and world society.

Current trends in the development of the education sector require significant changes in approaches, methods, techniques and tasks of training. The challenges that arise need to be addressed, which will make it possible to increase the competitiveness of higher education seekers after their graduation, and, as a consequence, to improve the competitiveness of the higher education institution itself. The tasks that arise are: a change in the approach to the educational process of research and teaching staff, which must consist in the interest of teachers themselves to improve the quality of educational services they provide; a change in the approach to the educational process of learners – students, listeners, cadets, etc. – that is, it is necessary to transform those who are taught into those who learn; definition of criteria for the effectiveness of education, which is obviously not only in achieving program learning outcomes. The main criteria of efficiency of educational activity are formulated in the article. These criteria are obviously not only the amount and strength of knowledge and skills, competencies and program learning outcomes. Using only such criteria, it is impossible to fully assess the current requirements for the effectiveness of education. In the conditions of market relations, economic crisis, global mental restructuring, the main criterion for the effectiveness of training of the specialist is the ability to employ him in various positions after graduation, and possibly during training. What is more important is the ability of the job seeker to self-improve and master various competencies when changing functional responsibilities. That is, a higher education student must have a wide range of competencies, not only deep ones, which will enable him to develop under certain conditions in the performance of functional duties. Such tasks make it possible to solve the use of elements of dual education, distance technology using modern technological solutions and motivation of participants in the educational process to self-development. The article concludes that the mutual combination of dual education with distance learning technologies should ultimately solve the urgent problem of training an experienced specialist with a high level of competence who will be able to perform production tasks without additional internship or training after graduation.

The purpose of this research is to study the possibilities of using mind-mapping technology in modern conditions of digital transformation of the educational process to develop students’ motivation to learn foreign languages. The research methods are the method of static description of the material, analysis, comparison and generalization of scientific information, and experiment. As a result, it was proved that the use of this technology in teaching foreign languages facilitates memorization of lexical material, promotes the development of speech skills, and makes the learning process exciting. It was found that in the course of creation of Mind Maps, students with a high level of digital skills are more successful in overcoming the language barrier, striving to expand the semantic components of Mind Maps. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that for the first time the students’ preferences on the choice of methods of learning foreign languages were studied. To pioneer the use of the method, the study was carried out on special German texts, which were studied by the students by means of two methods (traditional and mind-mapping technology).

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the educational process acquired distance learning techniques when technical teaching aids gained much more significance for mediating the real interaction of students and their teachers. At the same time, emotional-intonational interaction (the main method of imposing influence) became extremely limited. The conditions for creating the effect of involvement have changed and scholars need to consider the phenomenon of involvement, its psychological mechanisms, strategies used by teachers and students in digital learning. The research objective is to determine the model of involvement of participants in educational activity in the context of distance (digital) learning based on the analysis of the Russian and foreign approaches to the types and aspects of involvement. The main aspects of involvement include cognitive, emotional, behavioral, activity-based, motivational, socio-psychological and physical. These aspects represent the external and internal factors of the spatial side of the personality-based activity model. The novelty of the spatial and temporal model consists in the use of all spatial factors in sequent time phases of involvement: preparatory, activity-based, evaluative-correctional. The preparatory phase has emotional, motivational and semantic aspects. The activity-based phase comprises cognitive-behavioral and socio-psychological aspects. The evaluative-correctional phase aims at assessing both preparatory and activity-based phases according to the following system: A-high, B-moderate, C-low. The decision to adjust involvement is based on expert assessments (AA, AB, BA, AC, etc.). The authors suggest long-term and short-term options for implementing the involvement model with their methods, expected results and implementation mechanisms. The short-term version of the involvement model is realized through the digital monitoring of emotional and cognitive responses of a person in a digital environment. The authors also highlight the possibility of managing and self-managing students’ involvement in educational activities within a digital environment.

The article substantiates the need to use a creative component of content and teaching aids in STEM-education. The author highlights the successful experience of implementing the creative component in modern educational systems of other countries and proves its impact on the level of learning productivity. The regularities of building a model of STEM-lesson based on the creative component are determined, in particular: between the level of divergent thinking about educational process subjects and educational activity productivity in general, between the continuous development of creative abilities and mastering the new professional competences and ways of thinking. The author notes that considering the above patterns during the construction of STEM-lesson helps the teacher form in students a responsible attitude toward innovation as a product of their own development and as a driving force of social development.The stages of productive occupation are characterized as follows: students' comprehension of different ideas and finally the choice of one proposal of changes, the most relevant and which can be embodied in a new educational product; generating and accumulating ideas, the teacher's position should not dominate, which will promote free choice of students from many proposals of one or two of the most progressive; stages of «incubation» and «enlightenment», and especially «verification».Practical advice for teachers is described. The first piece of advice is to create a group of expert students whose task is to assess the «value» of each proposed idea according to such criteria as compliance with the purpose of the educational program, technological efficiency, nonstandard, rationality and integration, duration and scope.The second piece of advice is to «measure» the cost of the practical implementation of the proposed ideas, which helps recalculate the potential of students, the conditions of STEM-classes, and the search for additional resources.The third piece of advice is to develop an action plan for the practical implementation of the idea chosen by the students. Both expert stu-dents and other STEM participants can develop their plan in groups of 3–5 people. When presenting an action plan, only well-grounded practical steps are taken into account, which will form the basis of a single developed plan.Some problems that need to be solved to effectively use the creative component in the STEM education system are outlined: special train-ing of teachers, development of the corresponding educational and didactic material, development of creative and productive thinking at both pupils, and teachers

The article considers the essence of development and dissemination of distance learning as an innovative technology in the Ukrainian and foreign education space in the context of the historical and pedagogical approach. The authors study the conditions of implementation of this education technology, teaching aids and features of teaching. An important point of the article is the analysis of the genesis of the educational process at different stages, positive and negative aspects of distance education, as well as the authors' own practical recommendations for using modern distance learning platforms taking into account the needs of education and information environment. A large number of works in modern general and professional pedagogy are devoted to the study of such an innovative education technology as distance learning. Using comparative and descriptive research methods, the history of this phenomenon in education is considered, the main pedagogical categories are identified, the advantages and disadvantages of the distance education application and difficulties of this technology implementation are identified. Despite the high level of the problem elaboration and introduction of distance learning in modern education, there is a need, taking into account modern realities, to analyse the significance and essence of this innovative approach in more details. The authors of the article consider modern distance learning platforms in terms of intensification of foreign language and other humanities learning. The necessity of distance education technologies implementation under conditions of modern technogenic civilisation is proved, when traditional models of organisation of the educational process fail to satisfy the education needs of a large number of population. The result of the work is a substantiated statement of the authors about the necessity to combine traditional and distance learning models to ensure the competitiveness of the modern educational process.

The article discusses the materials of the sociological study of the educational environment of schools in the Krasnoyarsk region, conducted as part of the interregional research «Psychological comfort of education in modern rural school». Based on the theoretical analysis, the authors highlight two characteristics of the school environment, which have significant impact on the psychological health of schoolchildren and the success of education: tension and emotionality. The study found out quite serious differences in the assessment of the importance of educational parameters by different participants in the educational process: schoolchildren, parents and teachers. In general, all participants in the educational process highly appreciate the tension of the educational environment of schools; and there were no significant differences in the assessment of this parameter between rural and urban schools. According to the participants of the educational process, the school creates the necessary conditions for the development of different abilities of students, development of life skills. The emotional environment of the schools was also well received by all respondents. The most appreciated one is the potential for the development of educational activity, relationship with students, preservation of the personal dignity of students. However, many students note a high level of insecurity from the possible threat of insults, coercion to undesirable actions, from ill-will and insults from teachers and classmates. This requires the development of special measures to prevent bullying, improve the psychological culture of teachers, and design the educational environment of schools.

The article is devoted to diagnostics and correction of psychological readiness of children to study at school. Readiness for school is considered as integration of three relatively independent compo-nents: motivation readiness, intellectual readiness, volitional readiness. Diagnostics was carried out with children individually (N˃800). The following methods were used: “Diagnostics of intellectual development of primary school entrants” by G. Witzlak, “Educational activity” by L.I. Tsekhanskaya, author’s method of talking about the school. It is shown that readiness for school on three indicators reaches high level only in one third of those entering school, two thirds of children need support and assistance. The scheme of finishing and correction of psychological readiness for school is presented, in which the strengths and weaknesses of its components are described in detail. Finishing and correcting readiness for school can and should be done by the teacher in the educational process. The diagram sets out the main directions of the search; finding specific methods of influence on the child is left to the teacher’s discretion.

The article deals with the role of Muslim Tatars, which they played in the educational system of the Azerbaijan SSR. This is the first attempt to present a detailed picture of the wide range of activities as they come from various archival sources, such as opening of secondary schools and preschool institutions of Volga Tatars in Azerbaijan, the principles and routine of arranging teaching in the Tatar language as well as training the Tatar nationals to become teachers. Among the sources used to write this research paper are the materials from the State Archive of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Archives of Political Parties and Public Movements of the Administration of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, as well as some already published documents. The research has shown that the major influx of the Tatar nationals in Azerbaijan did happen in 1921–1922 mainly because of the famine in the Volga region. They refugees were provided with everything necessary: housing, work, the opportunity to learn in their native language. The problems that arose in the course of re-settlement of the Tatars were solved promptly and the whole process of their solving was controlled by the governmental bodies. The Azerbaijan communists considered the process of the Tatar adaptation as an important issue of their policy. The Tatars were continued to be educated within the framework of their national culture. The vehicle of education was the Tatar language. According to the statistical data from that period the literacy level among the Tatars was traditionally very high. To preserve it the Azerbaijani state made various efforts, including the arrangement of supply the Tatar schools with teaching aids in Tatar language. The state was interested in the high level of the public education and supported it.

Special attention should be paid to the motivation of educational process, because, the motives themselves, directly affect the quality of professional training and the formation of a professional personality. The aim of the article is to investigate the motivational structure of the students’ educational activity in the dental community and its relationship with academic achievement in the discipline “Therapeutic dentistry”. The structure of motivation for the educational activity of 161 fourth year dental students was studied by the methodology of I. T. Ilyina, which involves the study of motivation according to three scales: “Acquisition of knowledge”, “Mastering the profession” and “Obtaining a diploma”. The interrelation between different types of motivation and the academic success of the interviewed students is studied. It was established that in the structure of motivation of educational activity of dental students positive motives prevail over negative ones in 2.4 times, which indicates the qualitatively high level of motivation of these students. The rather high level of motivation of the interviewed students is probably related to the prestige of the chosen profession, its social significance and sufficient material security. With students who have high and average index of academic achievement cognitive and professional motives are uppermost, which indicates their orientation to obtain strong professional knowledge and practical skills. Students with a low index of academic achievement have a dominant pragmatic motivation for learning, which indicates their superficial motivation in order to achieve the main goal — obtaining a diploma. The given results testify to the favorable influence of positive motivation on academic achievement of students of the dental profile and, as a consequence, on the level of professional training of doctors in the field of “Dentistry”. The prospect of further research is the introduction into the educational processes of the Department of Therapeutical Stomatology in National Pirogov Memorial Medical University innovative pedagogical methods that motivate for educational activity, and research of their influence on the level of academic achievement of dental students.
